What would you do with $10,000,000?

DeletedUser

(That's ten million dollars, Gizmo)

So, what would you do with $10,000,000? Don't give none of this "Well it's not that much money," rubbish because that's a pretty extraordinary amount of money compared to what the average person earns within their lifetime, let alone all at once. Also, this is $10,000,000 after taxes.

What I would do: I would immediately purchase a house, a very, very nice house. A mansion, if you will. I would also buy my Mother a nice house. I would purchase a nice car, maybe a Mercedes, but definitely not an extravagant sports car. I would hire lawyers as well. Banking lawyers, insurance lawyers, Estate lawyers, etc. to make sure that my money isn't lost in the American legal system.

From there, I would spend at least a million dollars frivolously. I would travel the world, purchasing things I don't need. I would stay in extremely nice luxury hotels and vacation like no other! I would buy several $5,000 suits to look the part.

After I was done with my fun, I anticipate I would have at least 6 or 7 million left over and I would dedicate my time to school. I'm not sure what exactly I would study, but I would make sure that it was at a particularly prestigous school. I've always wanted to be an investment banker so maybe Harvard Business?

For the most part I would enjoy life. I wouldn't stress too much and probably remain a professional student the rest of my life. I enjoy learning things and debating, so perhaps plenty of philosophy classes would be in order?

Here are some things I would not do:

  • Donate money to charities that didn't have a specific scientific purpose.
  • Invest. Not right now.
  • Place my money in a bank!
  • Get married.
Your turn, go!

First, I'd split it up into 4 quarters. With one quarters I'd buy houses sheerly with the intention to renevate then sell on for more. With second third I'd buy a nice sized mansion and some nice cars. Third quarter I'd give to charity. I'd keep the rest banked until needed. May be a bad idea, but meh:p

WoW!:blink:

Almost the same answers from everyone here!
Material Gain! Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Everybody would immediately run out and $pend $pend!
Change their life styles. Change their Living Environment.

I, am happy with my life Style.

I would take only $1 Mill. and Yes, have some "fun", But I
would "Invest" all the remaining 9 Mill. And wait 1 year.

Even @ 10% on my investments; and I don't mean putting
it into a bank. Banks pay no interest, I would have ~$1 million

EVERY year! ..for the rest of my life!

To enjoy, to give to needy causes... whatever.
Who can't live NICE on 1 mill a year.

After 1-2 years when all you guys are broke, with a BMW up
on blocks, and a For Sale sign on the mansion's front lawn.
I'll be eating Caviar.

I'm Just Kidding!! :nowink: Really! Don't lynch me!
Long term Investing isn't for everyone.

But, I would be Vacationing every year in Hawaii!
or living there, and vacationing here? Naaaa!:p

In my opinion monny brings the worst out of people the more monny the more corrupt and the more greedy and selfish and paranoid you become. You will end up worse then before with no real friends to tell you your feelings and no women to call a wife. Monny does not just change us how we react but how we view things the more monny you have the littler you think of people that's why big CEO's don't give a crap about people that's why the stock crashed it's monny that people want so much but it is only the filth of all man kind it is the one thing that brings the worse out of us for instance how Manny wars started because of monny .

Iraq=oil=$
US Civil war=slave=$
US Mexican war=gold=$
US Indian war=land=more$
Spanish Indian war=Gold+land=$
British french Indian war=Fur =$
Cold War=Global domination=$
US revolution=Started because of $
Blood Diamond Genocide=$
Axis VS England,USA,Russia=oil=$
the list goes on..........
Monny is Evil to much is to bad and to little is bad if we were all midle class we could maybe be better people.

Not me, I will portion it between material and emotional gain (ie. Professional call girls).
That is, if that's what you thinks best. :p

Edit: Don't spend your money on a WoW boxer either, I see that..

With only ten million dollars, eh?

I think you might be able to convince Bill Gates to have a fifteen minute phone conversation with you for $10,000,000, let alone purchase Microsoft.
