I'd spend it all on space exploration. I would fund a permanent, self-supporting base on the moon. I would finance manned expeditions to Mars and Jupiter's moon Europa. And I'd spend what's left on the search for extraterrestrial life. Amazing things could be accomplished with that kind of money...

if i personally had that much money, i'd spend half of it on buying as much land as possible in FL. house for me. house for my brother. house for Posh, since i know he would live there, and if i could convince one or two other people i like to move to FL, then houses for them too. then all my favorite people would be in one spot. i would let crazy people roam about and live in my swamp if they didn't cause too much trouble or try to kill each other. and then i would learn how to do origami, and then with some i would make hundred-dollar-bill-origami, and then i would go around dropping cranes on people from various buildings and high places.

Help cats (and dogs) too. Provide spay/neuter services, help people adopt pets, etc.

That would definitely be part of my plan as well.

It is a fruitless war which has gone on for too long.

I would buy the Winchester mansion, i would buy a 1967 dodge charger (and it would not look like the dukes of hazard car), i would then give 2.5 million too each of my relatives, and i would then start trying to systematically destroy Microsoft and then i would start fixing up my home town, and after all that i would take half of whats left put it in the form of gold and then make a nice solid gold couch out of it, the other half i would put in the bank :D

If I had a trillion dollars; I'd build a giant money bin & swim in it like Scrooge McDuck :arrow:

If anyone had close to a trillion it'll be "Uncle MoneyBags" er "Uncle Scrooge" er "Uncle Sam".
I would spend the money on a space-ship so us Wrong Planet members could find the rite planet :wink:

If you are asking me... I'd fund a manned mission to Mars. Use the rest the same way Bill Gates has: fund education and healthcare research.

I'd keep 100 million. ;) That'd be more than enough to live comfortably for the rest of my life. In a beach house in Hawaii of course. ;)

I'd open up a Kinks museum in London, for all of their fans to enjoy, with a room inside that I live in, so that I could keep a close eye on everything, after closing hours.

Lemme see

Buy real estate for myself and my family.
Use some for travel and anime and video games and attending various events.


I would also go the way of Bill Gates and donate a whole heap of it to charity.

If I had a trillion dollars, then I'd buy a trillion dollars worth of lottery tickets.

That way, I'd be guaranteed to win a MILLION DOLLARS!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !!

Will it be taxed?

Donate all but $1 million to well researched and carefully selected, genuine, grassroots, non-profit groups working for environmental conservation, health and human rights.

Give $500,000 to my sister's and brother's families in gifts such as holidays and scholarships, send my parents on a fully paid holiday to somewhere exotic.

With the last $500,000 my fiance and I will do our campaign walk around Australia with all safety and satellite gear, 4WD and camping kit, promotion and marketing team, professional website, full mobile education and fundraising station, with enough money to survive comfortably including a few breaks over the 17000km 18 month journey.

Keep dreaming....
