No, this isn't the start to a corny dad joke, but a genuine question Lauren Sanchez (Jeff Bezos' betrothed) was asked.
If I had a net worth of $223.5 billion dollars like the Amazon founder, it's safe to say I would not be rushing out of bed in the morning.
After eventually getting up, I'd leisurely roam around my mansion in a silk dressing gown and ask one of my members of staff to cook me up a delicious breakfast, before I went and did a workout in my home gym.

While my expectations of how a super rich person would start their day are very high, Sanchez insists that her and Bezos' lives are 'pretty normal'.
Chatting to Vogue back in 2023, the author and philanthropist said: "Our lives are pretty normal. Daily life mostly revolves around our kids."
Giving some more insight into the celebrity pair's routine and an unwritten rule she has with Bezos, Sanchez shared: "Whoever gets up first, that person makes the other person coffee."
Sounds fair to me.
"We try not to get on our phones right away," she continued. "That’s what I’m working on."
Sanchez added that the family eat together every night without fail — that's after her kids' piano and tutoring lessons, of course.
While some of Sanchez's kids still live at home, all of Bezos' children are at college.
The article sparked some backlash, as some suggested that the Bezos was 'cosplaying as a working class stiff'.
Others on Reddit noted that it's quite the luxury to be able to host a family dinner on a daily basis.
Someone raged: "You know what got me f**ked up reading that article? That they have the luxury of family dinner every night together and home cooked meals. [...] A lot of families are lucky to have one day off per week all together."
Away from their supposedly 'normal' lives, Sanchez and Bezos were reportedly planning a $600,000,000 wedding.
Bezos has since denied these reports, but with his staggering net worth in mind, his nuptials to Sanchez is likely to be a very lavish affair.
The Amazon founder popped the question in May 2023 with a multimillion-dollar ring, and it's thought that the pair may finally tie the knot this summer, Hello! reports.
