On vacation this summer a friend asked me this 
question: What would you do if money were no object?
Take a second and think about that for yourself.
What was your first instinct? To travel the world? Buy several new somethings? Become a philanthropist? Solve a world problem?
What if we could change up the question, and apply it to our profession?
What tool or app or resource would you map out or build for a better future for our industry if money were no object? Big or small, incremental or game-changing; how would this investment take our profession to the next level?
A tool that instantly values privately-held companies?
An app that allows you to easily create contact reports?
There’s so much creativity in our field – I’m interested to hear what you’d dream up!
UPDATE: There is some great brainstorming going on Twitter so far! Take a look and join in the conversation here, on Twitter, and with colleagues.

@APRA_PA @AskHelenBrown I would love to create something that would provide a better grasp of data analytics to get up and running quickly.

@AskHelenBrown would also like international database of nonprofit annual reports; Guidestar India + Fondos a la vista + all others. (1/2)

@AskHelenBrown (2/2) basically, any nonprofit report that is publicly available all in one place. Donors would like that too, I imagine.
