Default If you had a million dollars?

I'd be rich!

But seriously, what would you do with a million dollars in life. If you can't answer that question then you know when your into GW when you rather have a million dollars in GW.

Keep this thread alive and well.

Thanks,
Assasin of Nigh

Give me a million euro instead.

I wouldn't suddenly go on spending spree.
Heck, I'd still buy stuff cheap.

Continue with my daily life, just with a bigger wallet.

Probably buy some monster comp and some decent car. Buy rounds for my closest friends at the bar. After that set aside money for education and put the rest into a bank.

That's not the right thing to do.

If you stick it in a bank and live on the interest, you can donate a % of the interest, and in the end, you will have donated more than the whole sum anyway.

Pay off Debts, buy a house, finish college, and save the rest. Depending on how much that is i may or may not look for a different job.

The people need money now obviously. Since all the elitist rich white people have taken all the peoples income and not handed it back to the people like they should have the middle class and poor people need money. This 1 mill is best spent on charities now!

Donate some to my church/other charities.
Give some to my parents/grandparent/sibling and put the rest in the bank. Oh, maybe some new clothes and a nice bag?

I'd probably get a gigantic bag of weed firstly

Buy a house and a decent car, then just save the rest I spose.

I'd buy a self sustainable house somewhere green and leafy, set up solar panels, a vege garden, fruit trees, chickens...
It sounds like heaven

Put the rest in the bank I guess.

is that a million AFTER taxes???
If so then build a house and put the rest in the bank for retirement.

If before then I would only get a down payment on a house since the taxes would take up almost 50% of it.
