Or.... Dunno.. I'd make sure my families bills were paid off then buy a nice house for myself in the country. Then I'd make sure I had a screaming fast system w/ great internet speed.

Finally, I'd spend a fat part of the money on a "round the world" vacation seeing all the cool things from the castles of Ireland to the Great China Wall, Pyramids, Vatican, Jerusalem, plains of Africa, Aztec pyramids, Antarctic/Arctic glaciers, etc., etc.

Then I build a commune and change my name to Koresh :eek:

You wanna know? Honestly? I would buy a large van or motorhome to live in, an entire cannabis plantation in Amsterdam or Northern California, invest some, and give most of it to homeless children. Or build the 'Homeless Hotel' in San Francisco, and expand around the nation. To help all of the useless pieces of crap to get a life.

best computer of can think of to buy!!!!!!!

and a $h!t load of games/software.

and maybe a plane.

and some new shoes.

And some other stuff.

And i'd invest the rest somewhere else.

Everytime new computer tech come out then i will buy straight away.

I would buy nvidia and bulldoze it down to a parking lot.
Then I would laugh and go get drunk.

I highly doubt you could buy Nvidia with "1 million, non taxable US bucks". Maybe you could buy the Bitboyz out, I'm sure they need the cash. :)

I would do one of two things.

1) Invest the money for retirement.

2) Buy a house the size of a tool shed
in San Francisco (about a million).

Either way I can't lose on the investment.

Still doesn't affect the property values.

Ailuros
04-25-01, 03:39 AM

Nothing about property values here in the Bay Area makes sense. They just keep going up no matter what. Try to figure it out and you'll get a headache.

Ailuros
04-25-01, 03:42 AM
well I for one wouldn't pay a cent for property on the bottom of the ocean hehehe :D

04-25-01, 03:45 AM

I would buy nothing. I would invest it in relatively risk free avenues, quit my job, and live off the interest.

I would buy a lottery ticket.

You don't expect me to stop at just 1 million do you?

:D :p :D

It's a little late now, but I'd have invested it in 3dfx.

Think about it - their share value would have doubled, and all the wallstreet prats who closed em down would jump on the bandwagon.

I'd clean up, and we'd get some new drivers.

Okay, enough Barenaked Ladies music...

Honestly, MultiGL, I would fly to Thayland and kick Satanīs ass. Then the United Nations would be so happy that they would refund me my ticked and all the expenses that I had, including geting Satan a proctologist (to remove my shoe), and then I would come back with my $1,000,000+ and pay my bills, cancel my home, invest some in reforestation and put the rest in a bunch of banks in the caribbean, so I would not have to pay taxes in Panama.

Buy my daughter all the cool toys that she could want.

Thatīs it.

I'd take half and shove it into a bank and live off the interest. Then take the other half to buy an island in the Pacific Ocean somewhere.

Invest the largest part of it and live comfortably after that...
