A lot of these look like what you would do if you won $1,000,000


I would piss it all away but also own the Reds

Alps
South Pacific
Europe (not sure which country)
Hawaii
Alaska
I think I would go:

Lake Erie, close to the islands
Torch Lake, Mi-heat of summer
Ft. Myers or Miami, Fl-dead of Winter
Hawaii, not sure which area would be least travelled.
Caribbean-maybe Grand Cayman

Hookers. Lots of hookers.

Seriously, go drop $1M in Vegas to be a high roller for a week. Because being able to torch $1M is what having that kind of money is all about.

Then go home to be like "ok, I want to spend my money on something worthwhile".

you would blow way more than a million. Its the equivalent to blowing a dollar if you have $400.

Dogs would get the worlds largest ball pit. LOL
I saw a video on Facebook of someone making a ball pit for their dog in their living room. It was awesome.

More seriously, it's winter. It's cold. I immediately begin shopping for a beachfront mansion.

I'd buy the Clowns and then move them to LA and with my superlative guidance my LA Waves would win the SB within 2 yrs. Then I'd have thousands of mini-Lombardi trophies made up that said Eat Me and air drop them all over NEO.

Don't believe anyone saying they would continue working. F that.

I'd pay off debt, buy a few houses, travel around, and donate to some charities. It would be cool to do something like undercover boss and give money to hard working people that need it.

I certainly wouldn't work full time. I might find a part time job in the field I work now, or I would do something fun that requires no additional training. Maybe try to get a job in coaching or on a golf course or something.

Work might be a lot more fun when you know you can walk out the door any time you want...

Can't remember if it was here or somewhere else, but it was mentioned that you'd need to be extra careful. People would be looking to sue you left and right.

Yeah but who cares? You can afford a legal team with that kind of money.

I wouldnt tell anyone. I would then spend the next few days/weeks contacting ALL friends/family asking to borrow $500. After I collect my "borrowed money", I then change my phone # only giving it to those that could help (not counting folks that realistically cant).

Then I would claim my $$$$$$$$$ and LIVE LIFE.

Of course paying back the borrowed $ with immense interest added.

Probably fall of the face of the Earth. That kind of money makes you a target, and I'd have to cut off damn near everyone and move to Europe.

But then I'd buy something ridiculous like Veyron or a Koenigsegg or something. Maybe move to the Almafi coast, or French Riviera. Live on my yacht for the rest of my life.

I would be myself ..... Garden35 and I would eat cornbeef for the last time
Redrocket and I would gather liver one last time
BRF and I would have one last golf outing ( better course )
Apple would get his last lunch and business converstion
