    Donate 500,000,000 towards numerous causes both public and private (meaning give some to friends/family), put 250,000,000 in interest/dividend bearing investments (enough income so that I'd never have to work), and probably spend most of the rest on a private jet and yacht large enough to land a helicopter on. Oh and maybe a helicopter. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    With enough asset growth I'd like to get a nice house as well. But holy balls, I have a hard time imagining being that rich. **When I first started this post I said I'd donate 500,000 and then I was like "oh crap, I have another three zeroes before I get to a half billion lol.

    As for political views, I don't have a problem with people who are fabulously rich. Just those who have mind-boggling wealth and don't give even if they wouldn't notice the difference.

    Right now I'd start off by renting a charter plane and flying it around the world a dozen times or so. Possibly getting very drunk while doing so.


    Whenever I get tired with not walking the face of the Earth I'd start thinking about how to distribute it about.

    I would start by paying my student loans off and helping some of my family who I know are struggling.

    Half of it would go into investments. A large percentage would go to fund my own scientific research organization to do crazy and innovative things, basically skunkworks. Next, I would try to find ways to most efficiently spread inject the money into addressing long-standing problems in the world.

    I see a lot of people here lack imagination.
    Ide go crazy with it. Ide be a consumer, a philanthropist, a hedonist. Ide indulge my every whim. If I just found a huge bag of $$$, Ide buy a small house to hide it. Ide just have a great time the rest of my life spending it in ways that people could not see. (!)

    I was gonna say steal my dream dog but I could just clone him with that kind of money. Then take dog, with me, in efricient reliable happy car across the states. go the cool old highway ways. stay at old awesome places. eat at old local places. force myself to meet people, since i could buy good pills now with money. embrace all these wonderful tacky tourist towns. embrace the classiness of others. embrace the earnest life of smaller ones. eat so much good food. lipo it off. fuckn enjoy nature so much. with dog. dream dog.

    help my parents so my dad doesnt die or kill himself from stress, thus ruining my moms happiness and life. set them up great. help my brother with school. take my nana to england where she was born and has always wanted to visit since she left around my age. cant because of finances and health. fuck that nana i got cash money, i can fix that shit. we goin to england and u goin comfortably. hell maybe do this for lots of other nice good old people that have last wishes and regrets they cant obtain.

    then do all the various mandatory etc boring shit so on so forth

    u had me at moonbase~

    Buy a beach house, pay it off, help out some people in need, fund a new film for David Lynch, then blow the rest on DVDs, Blu-rays and a stock pile of Nathan's hot dogs from Sam's Club.
