Doomsday device, all the way.

I will buy LOTS of antique typewriters, especially shiny ones. Plus a building to display and use them in.

lottery tickets

I would hire a company that builds out closets and have them renovate all my closets and make it look like an organized store up in here.

Then I would pay off my mom and dad's houses.

Then I'd buy 3 apartments in the same building in NY.
One for me, one for my sister, and one for guests.
Because even though my apartment has great closets now, I think I can do better.

Then I'd buy a lakeside house or three on Laguna de Apoyo in Nicaragua. Maybe I'd buy this lot at build something on it.
And I'd charter a plane and bring 50 of my closest friends there for vacation.
I'd hire a full time fresh pina colada specialist and a part time masseuse.

Book camping trips all through next year. Take a vacation to the beach. Buy some more books on my wishlist. Help my friend start her nonprofit. Help another friend with her student loans. Have a new building built at work provided I can run it. Build my dream house. Pay off my mortgage. Buy a new car.

Yeah, I think that covers it.

I will hire an army of minions to do my bidding; don't get on my bad side.

donate 100mill?

set up trusts for family members with another 50mill

the rest? FAST CARS AND LOOSE WOMEN

*loosens all the nuts on Firas's cars*
*puts rocket skates on all Firas's women*

Quit all my damn part time jobs.

Travel the world. Visit friends.

Make sure my Mom is looked after (she's in her 80's and slipping a wee bit).

Get a new car for a friend who's in need. And help fund a coupleni of friend's kids fund their higher educations.

Buy a beater pickup truck so I can haul stuff.

I probably wouldn't build that house I had permitted before everything went crapers but I would buy supplies to add a screened porch onto my trailer.

I'd go to the doctor when needed and buy any fresh fruit or vegetable I wanted.

Make substantial donations to some charities I'm supporting in a miniscule way.

Pay all expenses to get all the bunnies together for an event. Y'all are part of why I'm still around.

I have thought about this a little too much.

One, once we square aware any and all savings /taxes/ investing/ trusts for close family members/ etc and we're left with, lets say 250 Million. Which is still an absurd number of millions.

First things first we return the apartment to its original 1939 condition, moldings, dado, floor, wallpaper etc. Get stuff I always wanted like a totally customized standing desk/drawing board.

Private tailor on retainer cause duh.

I kinda want to, and this is odd, I want to own a forest, or restore an area (a big area) to pristine wilderness with enough protection to keep it going/donate it to the state after my death. Just buy up tons of land and hire specialists to figure out how best to keep it self-sustaining and healthy. I'd also like to endow a farm that would be basically a make-work camp for the crunchy hippie back to the land friends I have who would really like a farm without having to worry too much that it's self-contained - maybe they send me a box of produce every few weeks, a personal CPA. Alan Moore did it for almost nothing, I could pull it off.

My odd passion for historical re-creation would result in said apartment above being full of excellent period furniture- maybe be like Auntie Mame and change it when my moods suits me.

I would have the most obnoxiously spoiled cat.

Much bigger parties, of course. I might buy a place in Amsterdam but, really I'm not into real estate or cars - I'd be okay with buying and restoring places however.....Just so long as I didn't have to live in them after.

Serious arts funding, the smaller the place the better. I wanna be a one man NEA for all the cool stuff that never gets any money - not 100 million to one place, a million to a hundred places, dig?

I'd also like to have a Scholarship, or series of them, for arts education or restoration or general History Preserving. I have no plans for children so the total dissolving of my assets after death to various funds and charities would be totally fine with me.

I also have the insane idea of going into local politics but that is just insane, on the other hand if I could make sure a huge donation would keep public transportation systems cheap I might be tempted.

Obviously, I'd bid for Tribune Newspapers to keep them out of the hands of the Koch Brothers.

From here on out, it's only fancy ketchup for this guy.

Live on an airplane with constant stopovers.

Ha Atom Eyes and gomi. Those are wonderful.

If I had that kind of money I'd have a decorative building made where every detail has been custom designed. Like the Goetheanum or the Einsteinturm or the Tuschinski cinema in A'dam. Or, closer to home, our old post office.

I'm a great fan of expressionist architecture. And if you get it right it's a gift to your city for the ages.

OMG I could hire someone to clean the garage!!!! Be still, my heart. I'm totally buying a ticket now.

Quit my job. Buy a nicer house (more storage! a garage!! a large all seasons room!!!). Pay off my parents' houses & pay for some renovations. Hire someone to screen my phone calls. Become a professional parent. Hire a live-in nanny. Have another baby. Foster dogs. Foster kids. Adopt a few more kids.

I won't win because I won't buy a ticket.

I will never wear clothes again.

Invest half. Sell my house. Take care of the family. Then live all over the world, in luxury hotel suites.

It would be nice to have a new car. It would be really fun to design and build a new house. I would have a driver or 2 so I could have Chinese takeout Whenever I Want, and I wouldn't have to get out of my pjs. The Small Dog would have sooooo many tennis balls, and a dedicated helper always willing to throw the ball a few more times. My child & my siblings would have economic security. I would set up a philanthropic foundation, and undo a great deal of karmic damage. I'd probably buy and restore a really cute old camper, and be a traveling eccentric. I would never, ever, have to stack the fire wood myself.

Quit my job and get a part-time job doing something with no accountability and lots of interaction with other people. Fix all the annoying problems with my house, and redo the landscaping. Set up trust funds for all of my nieces and nephews, and put aside some money for my dad. Buy a vacation place in Maine. Hire a private yoga instructor. Take hands-on classes in jewelry making, welding, cooking, whatever I want to do at the moment. Volunteer time and money to charities that mean a lot to me.
