What would you do if you had a million (American or Canadian, whichever) dollars? People will say "It will never happen to me," but in reality, a million dollars can strike anyone, any time. No one is safe.

As for me, I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love.

First thing i'd do is probably go on a CD/record splurge - That might eat up a good couple o' thou'. Then i'd buy some musical instruments, like a sax, guitar and amp, big expensive keyboard, a bunch of stuff i don't need.

Then i'd probably put the rest in the bank, then use it to pay rent wherever i may be, while using revenue from some sort of job to cover eating and recreation and so forth.

I suck with money.

If I suddenly acquired a million dollars, I would invest it and live off of the interest.

I don’t plan to wait around and cross my fingers that I become a millionaire. I know that I will eventually earn at least that much, but I don’t think you’re wealthy until you can afford not to work.

If I had all the money I wanted, I would definitely expand my weapon and video game collections.

I would immediately give away 20%, then invest and live off the rest. I would continue to work, but I would work less, and I would travel more.

The biggest single expenditure is I would probaby buy more DVDs than I do now, until I had everything I think I'd want. That'd be the big vice, but it probably wouldn't run me more than about $20000.

I'd do the same as Civilian. Give away 10 - 20% to charities and what-not, buy my BF some things, (ie. gigantic plasma tv or something) then... I dunno. Probably live off the rest?

give away 20 percent to make you look like a good person, and tell everyone you only have, say, 40 percent of a million. ther we go. thats the master plan.

Give it to the people who run Google! They turned down a multi-million-dollar bid from Microsoft, and the only way they get money from it is by selling out obscurely placed ad slots.
