you have 100 billion dollars. What will you spend it on?
-
I would design and build some full size wearable robotic dinosaur exoskeletons
made of titanium, and base there design on the gang with customizable characteristics
and upgrades
-
100 billion dollars huh?
....
First things first....GOTTA pay off the college tuition. Second....buy my brother a car. Then...buy every LBT movie I DON"T have. Then buy an iPod. Then a Wii, SSBB, another XBOX360, some XBL cards.
Then...I don't know...that's ALOT of money.
-
Guess I'd first buy everything I'd like to have. Then I would probably give somethin away to the poor.. and to my friends, they would deserve money too :D ..
Gah.. for the rest.. I'll just.. keep it :p
-
Buy a few things (maybe a couple million dollars' worth) to start off life, put the rest in a savings fund and live off the interest. B)
Then I wouldn't need to worry about finding a job that I probably wouldn't like anyway. I could do freelance work in any field I wanted, for my own interest.
-
I might be boring now, ah well. :P:
I guess I would get crazy and buy some neat thingies! :^.^:
Send lots of it to the poor and to science, like cancer, heart etc.
But, some things money can't buy. I think I can manage life without 100 billion dollars! :yes
However, I guess this topic's made for the fun of having those money, so...
Buy, buy, buy and buy! :wow Still sending some to the the poor and science!
I would share it with my friends!
Then, I'd buy myself a big, nice cottage somewhere in Norway or America, where I would settle down. Lots of travel also! :)
-
I had a dream last night winning lotery and buying a house in america where I would do things for the poor.. And some of you guys came living in that house too :p Me making breakfast every morning.. Lol .. Can you imagine? xD
-
I think it is perfectly insane that anyone should own so much money. Let's be modest, make that 90 billion dollars :lol

:lol :p
Fair enough, Malte. Fair enough. :lol:
But without that extra 10 billion, how am I supposed to teach monkeys how to compose for me? :nyah
-
Hmm...I would pay off my mother's mortgage, pay off my truck, buy a house so I'd never have a mortgage; only property tax :rolleyes:, pay my tuition without the use of student loans, travel lots, and donate a good portion of it to the Autism Speaks organization :yes.
-
This is only one thing I can think of for now, but if I had that much money, I'd try to buy every Bionicle set that I don't currently have, even if I have to spend thousands at an auction. I would really like to have a complete collection of Bionicle sets that have already been available.
-

What about buying a factory? :yes
-
I wouldn't tell anyone for a start.

Or maybe even the whole Lego company itself! :lol
-
I would buy a F-22 (Of course) equitment fo my f-22 pay for collage save rest for taxes and a submarine.
-
I'd use the money to buy LBT off Universal then use what's left to have us take over and make it better. :P:
Hmm, maybe buy a house with satelite and the BEST internet connection money can buy. From there, never work a day in my life again. :)
-
I'd likely get a house with a large yard so I"d not be bothered by noisy neighbors. Then I'd likely have to pay a gardener to take care of mowing the grass, or buy a condo and the units connected to mine, with no neighbors can't have noisy ones. Buy some neat tech things and things I need, put some into savings and checking accounts and invest the majority and live off the interest.
-
Hmm, let's see. First, i'd give half to the poor and fund raising organizations and such like that, then i'd buy a house with a large plasma TV screen, buy the best computer money can get, buy one of those rare Lamborghini revolutions, (or whatever they're called, i read in an article) buy every video game console i don't have and every video game i could get my hands on, buy the other LBT movies i don't have, have my own personel arcade room with any old arcade systems like Pac-man, Powerdrift, Die Hard, etc. that i could find, Buy the best cable system i could get with as many channels available as possible, buy a king size Water Bed, an indoor Swimming Pool with a water slide like at the amusement parks, buy an exercize(i probably spelled that wrong) equipment set for my Hamster, a fairly large Hedge maze, (those things are always fun)and a LOT of other things i could name here. :lol

I know about the right to keep and bear arms, but are you really sure that the most advanced weaponry of the US air force and the navy would be just sold out to a civilian (or even a soldier) for private use?
-
first help away the global warming,
-
There are civilian subs, though they are likely expensive so only certain large scientific organizations and such own them. Not sure about Germany but here on pbs they have shown some here and there. There may also be 1 man subs for the very rich, who knows what toys the very rich have open to them that most folks do not know about.

I was meaning a military sub.

Holy crapola. Just put that in a savings account and you'd make 7 billion dollars a year just having it sit there. I think the choice would be obvious. :rolleyes: You should have made the amount a lot less. Like, 2 million at the most. Then you'd only get around 100,000 a year and you might want to spend some of it before putting it all into a savings account.
-
New goal: I'd move, faaar away :lol: And meet everyone I'd like to meet. :^.^:
Ok .. First finish school :p
-
I¥d give all the money to the poor. Well except for 500.000 dollars maybe. I am okay with my life. I have everything I need. A family, enough to eat, enough money to travel one or two times a year. that¥s enough for me.
-
First I'd quit my job working at the movie theater. And then I'd...........
1. Buy my mom and dad new cars
2. Donate some money to needy kids or the ASPCA
3. Move to New New York City
4. Buy a big Mansion
5. Buy tickets to every single Yankee game.
6. Spend the rest of the money on my own selfish needs
I would give money to my friends but unfortunately my friends if they knew I had that much money they would rob me dry of every cent I had. ;)
-
Me, I'd get my hands on a B-1B (and learn how to fly it), plus a place to store and maintain it and however much I'd need to keep living the way I am now for the rest of my life. The rest, I'd give to my friends. They need it more than I do, I think, and I'm happy the way I am (though most may not envy it, what with the pain and all...)
-
You know, I'd go see all the great friends I met on the GoF!
Also move to Europe for awhile (few years maybe), for the experience and whatnot.:) :lol: Visit people, that kind of thing. B)
Who knows what, from there! With money not being an issue, the sky's the limit! :wow
Oh, and hire a team of programmers to make our LBT game! It's hurting my head. :lol :lol
I'd probably go take game design / programming courses too, for fun. :P:
So...who's buying the rights to LBT? :D :wow :lol

Does the second amendment cover the most modern weapons of mass destruction held by the US forces?

Aye, that's where I would spend a good deal of money too, with the only exception that I would go mostly to the US, Canada, and Australia rather than Europe.
So...who's buying the rights to LBT?
In the light of recent news that would be a good way to spend some of the money. Get those rights, a decent production team and then see "Old Threehorns" realized in a manner so people can actually enjoy it :rolleyes:

There are actually several old military planes which can now be privately owned. There is a team of civilian pilots who fly F-104 Starfighters at airshows. There is at least one privately owned F-4 Phantom (the owner flew them in Vietnam), and I think you can buy Mig-21s and Mig-17s and own them as long as you strip them of their weapon systems. Then again, the Mig-21 is a piece of garbage so I wouldn't trust it. But no, the military doesn't generally sell advanced weapons to civilians.
I would buy a Mig-29 because they are cheap, easy to find, and reliable. All I would have to to is learn to fly it and remove the avionics so it can't fire weapons.
You may be wondering why I want a fighter jet so bad. Well it isn't because they blow stuff up. It is because fighter jets look awesome.
Anyway, I would get a runway and a hangar for my Mig and I may get a French Mirage-2000 as well. (Well, they export them to bad guys. Why not sell one to me too?)
A Rafale M and a Eurofighter would be nice too but I would have to wait until France and England start exporting those.
Next I would buy a 747, paint it in an LBT themed paintjob, fit it with all kinds of luxuries and a movie theater, and designate it the official GoF private jet. Then I would give it to Petrie because he started this site in the first place. Hopefully, he would pick us all up and take us for a ride and we could hang out.
Then I would buy the rights to LBT and get a production team to continue the series. I may also looking at turing some of the better quality fanfics into films.
Oh and I would get a really big yard and a herd of buffalo because I love buffalo.
The rest of the money would be spilt among the fellow members of this site, still leaving each of us with a vast sum of cash.
-
Well...I'd mostly support my family with that much money, and also use it to fund my future group, EWAA. I'm boring. ^^;
-
Me, I'd try anyways...That's how much I love the Lancer...

Oh, yes yes yes! Let us have control of LBT production, and we'll be sure to please fans allover with some good sequels :^.^:. Just can't make it too scary for the little ones :lol. I never did think of that one in my first post, but I'd be more than willing to chip in if I had such a ridiculous amount of money B).
-
Do you think a second season of the TV Series could be done with my story? I'm sure it's already showing potential. :) (I'm just stuck because of sucky writer's block. :P:)
-
How much do you think the rights to LBT would be? I don't care if I have the rights or not so long as Universal is doing it's job, but I would be interested in purchasing those rights if possible.
