I'd buy a few cars like Aston Martins, Jaguars, Fords, BMWs, Mercs, Farrraries - sp?, TVR's, Lambo's...etc
Then buy some luxuries like every dvd, cd and video games i every wanted.
Buy some big houses around the world; buy a company or start one; go on in holiday with all my mates; gives some money to my mates/charity.
And finally invest a few milllion for the future.
How's that sound....? (i'm sure there alot more this i cant thing off)
Yeah, but no but yeah but no....

I don't know what I'd do really. I've always had this grand idea of forming a school, completely free to all who attend. Only stipulation would be you would agree to spend at least 2 years teaching/working at the school once you finished it. I figured there could be people farming/agriculture, and working at the campus all the time. Free housing could be built, etc... by the students as a part time job to help keep the school running. I figure that with enough investment, maybe the school could keep itself running for a long long time. I feel that schools today charge way too much money for an education. $100,000+ is totally uncalled for, there is no way I'd spend that kind of money just to start out at a job making $40,000.
Anyway, just a thought. I'd also pay off all my family's bills. Debt is not a good thing.

I like his plan. i had an idea along those lines too.
Some of my plans:
Buy a car, house, pay off all my bills, ide buy my brother and sister new cars. And a new large family vehicule. Ide put lots in the bank. I would start a school.. almost a technical building.
It would be a large building with very good pc's. Anyone who wants to can teach a class thier and be paid for it, depending on thier abilities and the type of class. Ide make available almost any program neeeded. No matter the price.
i would loan for no cost, hi powered computers to some local school, schools are such an integral part of almost any field now a days... we are teaching the peopel who will use them most on some of the worst machinery.
Ide also fund come college programs non school related. you come to my business. ill talk with you personally, and decide if ill pay for your college. ill pay anything from giving you like. 1 grabd. to paying all of your educational needs... depending on your situation, arguement so on.
Its all about education.

I surely won´t use it for educational purposes and all that shit, since after all, all I´m about to become -careerwise- have had to sweat it all along, meaning work work and more work, not eating a few of those days and more work.
Oh, would invest too, and make an art studio like Mike.
