A Python developer with a knack for math. TKD black belt, ask me about 2013.
Applied Math Alum @SMU, but I can tell you all about commutative rings too.

I'm assuming the question is "if you could not code anymore and money was not a problem..."; on that note, I had a few ceramics classes in college and it was pretty fun.
It's like a website you can hold: the end product tells you a bit about the maker, there are good practices, there are bad practices, you can make them for people, etc etc
I have been a programmer for forty years. Even so, I have made a breakthrough in software development and feel that in some ways my adventure is just beginning.
That's why I like woodworking, making furniture and stuff! A lot of the same skills and tools as building houses (which I also liked the few times I've done it) except you can totally just figure it out on the way! Also like programming, there's no shortage of great YouTube videos of people building cool stuff and teaching you how.
I tried to get into woodworking, but I kept running into other woodworkers with missing fingers. With my capacity for being a klutz, I decided to move on over to 3D printing. Now I just burn myself on the nozzle occasionally. :)

I will do the other things I have in mind and which I never give time 'cause I'm always learning something related to programming.
That includes brewing, selling games (mostly board games and tabletop RPG) and writing articles for webzines on the web (and why not animating some podcasts too!).
And if a little bit of programming was still allowed, I will probably do some game programming too. :)
I'm not sure how that would happen, other than nobody wanting to hire me due to my age. Even then, I'd probably do some programming of some type.
Other than that, I'd probably expand my arts and crafts side business. Mainly that would include building guitars and oddball stringed instruments and creating paintings and mixed media works.

I would cry, honestly. Then I'd become a yoga instructor, still crying, though.
You just made my day! hahahahaha
I'm glad :)
I think it would be nice to test everything and update the documentation.

I'd become a writer and write science fiction and cheesy romance novels.
You could certainly write cheesy science-fiction-romance novels. I've read a couple. They are sort of fun.
Open a bakery/restaurant for people who are diabetic and/or on the keto diet 🍪
I think building houses seems like a lot of fun—if it were more like programming, where I can kind of figure it out as I go and experiment freely.

Sigh. Serious woodworking is just a bit impractical in my city apartment at the moment. But I have other hobbies. 🙂
You could make spoons! Just be careful because the knives are SUPER sharp.

I’d become a therapist

The professions I'd consider as an alternative would be paramedic and teacher.
