If you had a million dollars....
« on: March 08, 2003, 12:39:26 PM »
I know now a days a million dollars cant go as far as it could, but just take that thought away. What if you actually had a million dollars, what would you do with it?

Half would go to my mother and close family

The rest I would spend, probably get a decent car, and some other goodies I\'ve been wanting to get

(sorry for the lame topic, just trying to bring back life into the forum :( )

I\'d buy a house and a car. The rest would go into the bank to collect interest (or other investments). Then I\'d live off that money and quit my job.

If I had more money, I\'d give some of it to my family. But only 1 million? Nah, they\'ll have to take care of themselves. ;)

Id buy america cause

Americas for sale, and you can get a good deal on it, and make a hefty profit, or maybe tear it apart, lets start with assumption, that a million people are smart, smarter then one.

You may ask what does NoFX\'s song "The Decline" have to do with this, and the answer is, absolutly nothing!

I\'d buy a car, a house, and invest the hell out of about 500k of it.

Id buy a 400K or so home. Spend some dough on a nice project race car. A vehicle for the wifey, and some exotic toy. Viper...360 Modena..NSX...911 Carrera(not all 4..1 of them)

Invest the rest.....

Buy or build a nightclub eventually.

Divide some of it amongst my three sisters and me for our school tuition, a nice present for Ryu, and I\'d give the rest to my mom.

I would blow half of it on coke and strippers.

Then I would buy gold with whatever\'s left after buying a Lamborghini.

I\'d use it to pay for my upcoming college tuition, spend maybe a good $50,000 on myself, pay off the homes my parents live in, and then put the rest away for when it\'s needed.  I believe I can make something of myself, and doing so would be more rewarding than just being given money.  That being said, having a good amount of cash to fall back on during hard times would be a welcome cushion.

high yeild bank account, say pull around 12%.  Reinvest 5% a year to counter-act inflation, and I\'d pull around 7% a year.  I could do nicely on 70,000 dollars of real buying power a year

You\'re going to miss out on all the strippers if you do it that way!
