What would you do if you won a million dollar

[Wayne Tai]

If for some reason you're a million dollars richer,

 

maybe you won the lottery or the money fell from the sky and landed in your wallet,

 

how much of that money would you spend on a new rig and what would be its specs like? 

 

edit: okay maybe $1M is too much. how about say $50,000?

First of all, I would buy all the Samsung I want, than probably put that in the bank account and live off of interest.

[Jerakl]

~2000-3000 UPGRADE

 

Maybe to DDR4, a new chassis for sure, and I would build a kickass NAS.

 

And a new desk and some new monitors <3

About $8K on a fully liquid cooled 4k surround rig and then invest in real estate preferably Vancouver.

Spend 100,000, invest 900,000.

[RevoltTrain]

I would buy myself my dream cars (2012 Subaru WRX STI and a Skyline R34), Build myself and my girlfriend some nice PC's. Buy her and I a house, pay any bills I have at that point and put the rest in the bank.

Spend 100,000, invest 900,000.

This.

 

Buy a small house, invest much of the rest, along with savings.

Lmao everyone always says that till you actually see how much interest banks give you. I don't know about you, but my savings account has 1.05% interest per annum. So that's like living on 10k per year even if you put all 1 million in your savings account.

[Interfectorem]

I would build this.

[Fate]

I'd invest half of it and spend the other half on a house and a bunch of toys (toys as is motorcycles, cameras, computers etc). Then I'd use the rest of it to put myself through college without having to work. By the time I get out of college I'd hopefully not even have to work if my stocks do well, but if they fail, I'd have a backup plan.

If you have over an amount of money, you get a special interest rating, which is much much higher.

[Shalashaska]

Buy property and make investments, I wouldn't spend any of it on things I wanted immediately when you can use that kind of money to make a life.

[eLucid]

Invest obviously. Money can work for you, most people don't realize this.

[Swndlr]

continue my normal life... money doesnt mean no education.

[Deletive]

Buy a home in vancouver for myself. invest in schooling and business

[Sushicat89]

Go watch TI5 and S5 Worlds, a PC (Of course!), food, university tuition fees, games, a dog and hats(TF2 and Dota2)

A million dollars and a 2000-3000 dollar upgrade, that's weak man. Go big or go home

[TheKDub]

Build a crazily overpowered rig, make a 4k surround setup, get a nice keyboard, mouse, and speakers, get a new desk and chair, and buy a 2015 Camaro z28 or 2014 Camaro zl1.

[Jerakl]

A million dollars and a 2000-3000 dollar upgrade, that's weak man. Go big or go home

Need to make it last so I can upgrade for free for the rest of my life

[Shroomster]

Like 15k for a badass setup and a separate Star Citizen/Flight sim. And the rest goes to bank.

[Guest Philosophy]

I would buy a few rental houses in a high income area, invest the rest in a high interest bank account. Passive income.
