What would you do if you won $100 million?

These are my favorites so far :

A scholarship for athletes who have completed their athletic eligibility but need another year to get their degree Originally Posted by googol^googol

put as many books into the hands of as many children as possible Originally Posted by googol^googol

A tiny isolated bit of land on the stream-sized river with a little shack, a bed and a bookshelf
Maybe a generator so I could have hot coffee and cold beer Originally Posted by googol^googol

Buy some machine guns because they're fun to shoot Originally Posted by Munchmasterman

Use about half for future income since some of the latter items will require money for operating and maintenance until I get tired of them and sell or downsize them. Things like a ocean going vessel to visit a number of places around the world. A much nicer RV to revisit or visit new places around the US and Canada not close to water. Then roll most of that into the third paragraph once I am done with the expensive toys.

Take care of family and a few others that have been apart of my life over the years with a one time housing purchase or payoff and a vehicle and related items if needed. Also a spend as needed, once its gone its gone, amount of cash.

Set up a charitable foundation. I mean I will get tired of not working at some point and as a means to help give to people and organizations that would be helped greatly with a small donation. This would help with some of the previous.

And since having this much money would bring out the gold diggers I would still need to have an occasional paid girlfriend to give me a break.

Just broad strokes.

I will save 75% and the rest open up business everywhere in different states

Hire a lawyer, buy three houses and six cars (two for each house)....then I would start an adoption agency, hire twice the workers I needed (so they can really do their work on some of the families kids are being given too)...I would build a Theme Park for the kids, one where kids were always free if they lived in foster homes....then take all my friends and family on a big shopping spree and maybe Disney Land...ok for sure Disney Land!!

Mmmm buy a big house in the country with tons of land and bring home every single animal at every kill shelter in four states. Originally Posted by SillyGirl

I would also like to go to Africa most likely Botswana and help with the baby elephant and rhino orphanages, they always need help and support.

Don't get me wrong I'd do so small kine jet setting as well, but helping others is the most rewarding feeling!

I would schedule overnights at luxurious hotels with various providers. When the lady showed up, I would have her donation in an envelope along with a note to enjoy herself. I would leave and go to my room. When, any of the ladies I scheduled with would try to call me, they would find my prepaid phone in their room. The amounts left for them would vary, but be generous.

Do the obivous and build a new home with a big garage to store all my toys. At the same, I would open up new businesses and let my BF's run them the way they want to. I would travel the country and stay in nice condo's or hotel's.

^ your BF's huh..... there is so much we could do with that statement...lol

Hire 4 fluffers to work a compressed shift so 1 is always on duty. Originally Posted by Munchmasterman

Thats after taxes. All of $100 million is yours waiting to be spent.

I would do the obvious first: hire a lawyer, set up a trust, set up momma, pay the family debt & remain anonymous.

After all that ... I don't know what I would do. What would you do? Originally Posted by faz

1) get me a nice new house (nothing too flashy but nice
2) buy me a couple of cars I want and a couple of motorcycles
3) go travel some (3-4 months)
4) arrange over nighters with 3-4 ladies, having one show up on monday, leave tuesday, wednesday another show up leave thursday then friday to sat... then back to the rotation.


but this would be AFTER I gather up some of my fellow Houston ECCIE members for a few weekends of wild debauchery with some of the Houston ECCIE providers...

Set up trust
Contact my bond broker
Invest heavily in Tax Free Munis at .05%
Live well off 5 Million a year in tax free income...
Nice boat, nice place in country, nice place in another country..probably somewhere in Central America.
Drink, Fish, Dive... blow the rest... Originally Posted by Torqueman

You can invest in good growth Mutual Funds and easily outperfom the S&P 500, and even in today's economy get between 10-15% annual return.

BTW, @ 13% annual return, every morning when you woke up from a restful sleep, you'd have earned $35,000 to spend without ever touching the original investment.

Now, on to the WWKAD...

1. Sleep Late
2. Get my money making 12-20% annual return
3. Buy this: http://www.missilebases.com/adironback
4. Travel around the world for a year
5. Buy an island
6. Buy a helicopter,a small jet, a Ford GT TT and an Audi R8
7. Create a scholarship program for my alma mater
8. Fund and support dog rescues all across the country
9. Have a party
9. See #1

It's assumed that family would be taken care of.

Once the money was secured working in a trust and I had faded to black after taking care of family, I would help the widows and orphans of the world.

fuck, sleep, eat.........rinse and repeat

I'd pay a whole years lease on my rent
pay my mom back for all the help she's given me
have a 3some every 3 weeks

That would be 0.

I need $25,000 to have my jib re-stitched. It was severely torn, by candidates I had interviewed, after they found out there was no job.

Give my best to Mom. Don't delegate that task to the pool boy as he posted pictures on the internet from the last time.

Eternally mooching,
Your son
