If i had 1,000,000 dollars....

Colt_0pz

I would keep it, to build a project or start a business, invest it, and put some in savings.

Then when I have hundreds of millions from a successful company I would be able to give away more than just $1 million.

I would invest in a house or two to rent, then wait until they equaled out to another house, and so on until I had much more then 1 mill. After that I would keep 40% of my earnings and donate 60% to charities like Extra Life :D

This is my current computer. It is horrible  :lol: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Octavio_I/saved/8XLscf

I'd set some aside to finish fixing up my house, put 8 grand away for "fun", set another 50 grand aside and then put the rest in a 1 year CD.

The CD would prevent any impulse buying that usually comes after such windfalls.

 

During that 1 year I would look for a modest home in a decent neighborhood to purchase.  I'd use the 50 grand partly as a down payment, and for any upgrades and then make sure I have enough for 1 years worth of mortgage payments.  I'd use that CD I bought as collateral for the mortgage which would result in a very low interest rate.

 

I'd then move my mother into the new home and let her stay there rent free providing she pay for the utility bills.  Then I'd help her fix up the home she owns so she could sell it and get rid of that mortgage.  Then six months after her home is sold, or after she has lived in the new house for 1 year (which ever comes last) I'd charge her just enough rent to cover the property taxes and insurance on the home.  This would be a lot less than she is currently paying now.

 

After the CD has matured I would invest some, donate some, and do my best to keep the money a secret.

Well $1000000 at the current exchange rate is £658762. So maybe 250-300K on a nice 1 bedroom flat (apartment for our American cousins) in Bath, 15k on modifying & restoring my Mazda MX 5, 70-80K on the Alfa Giulia QV when it get released, and the remaining 300K-ish I might have a crack at starting my own business.

I would have back to back parties inside my house (probably naked). I'd drive up and down my town in my new car while shooting bullets from my pistol in the air. Then I would buy the best computer ever and never leave my house for a year. And finally, I would make a pool with money and swim in it. :D

Pay off everything for my parents and of course share it with my family. I feel guilty having too much money sometimes.

i would give it to the poor (1000 each)

 

I'd set it on fire because a dollar is technically as useful as monopoly money.

If I had that much mney, I would have made a homeless shelter where all homeless people can stay and go to their jobs. In short I would spend 90% of the money on the welfare of the world because it's all that matters.

If I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a house
I would buy you a house

And if I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
I'd buy you furniture for your house
Maybe a nice Chesterfield or an ottoman

And if I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a K-Car
A nice Reliant automobile
And if I had a million dollars, I'd buy your love

If I had a million dollars
I'd build a tree-fort in our yard
If I had a million dollars you could help
It wouldn't be that hard

If I had a million dollars
Maybe we could put a little tiny fridge
In there somewhere
We could just go up there and hang out

Like open the fridge and stuff
And there'd all be foods laid out for us
Like little pre-wrapped sausages and things

They have pre-wrapped sausages
But they don't have pre-wrapped bacon
Well, can you blame them?
Yeah!

If I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a fur coat
But not a real fur coat, that's cruel

And if I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you an exotic pet
Yep, like a llama or an emu

And if I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you John Merrick's remains
All them crazy elephant bones
And if I had a million dollars I'd buy your love

If I had a million dollars
We wouldn't have to walk to the store
If I had a million dollars
We'd take a limousine, 'cause it costs more

If I had a million dollars
We wouldn't have to eat Kraft Dinner
But we would eat Kraft Dinner

Of course we would, we'd just eat more
And buy really expensive ketchups with it
That's right, all the fanciest Dijon ketchups

If I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a green dress
But not a real green dress, that's cruel

And if I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you some art
A Picasso or a Garfunkel

If I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a monkey
Haven't you always wanted a monkey?
If I had a million dollars I'd buy your love

If I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
I'd be rich!
