Topic: 5 Things You'd Do If You Had a Billion Dollars?

What would you do with a Billion Dollars? You can only list up to 5 things. Even a Billion Dollars has limits.

I know I would:

1) Buy my Parents a nice little house in a town that doesn't suck
2) Buy the Bucks and make them a decent team
3) Bribe the Japanese Parliment into uncensoring their adult media
4) Donate to a church
5) Buy a pet rock

1) Start a publishing company.
2) Buy a house in a quiet, beautiful town.
3) Buy a house for my mom.
4) Put all of my younger siblings through college.
5) Invest remainder into clean energy projects and space travel.

1. pay off my college

2. buy all the game i want that i can not afford

3. buy pie

4. hire scientists to create mewtwo

5. buy five more options to add to this list

I would just blow it all on hats...

Semi seriously:

1) Buy my family what they need/like.
2) Buy a nice little Castle where I could give private concerts/have my own studio etc.
3) Make Eiichiro Oda base a character on me in his show by bribing him.
4) Buy an ENORMOUS foster home with some good stuff, everything anyone could need is in there.
5) Live on one's private means.

1. Pay off my college expenses for the next few years.
2. Buy my mom a decent house in a nice suburb.
3. Put some of it in a trust for my future kids.
4. Invest alot of it in the energy and the bussiness sector of technology.
5. Get lifetime tickets to my hometown sports teams.

those are the ones that I felt comfortable posting i guess.

1. Put half of it into a savings account for when I need it.
2. Establish a college fund for myself, (being a highschool student I'll be needing it in a few years), my siblings and my future children.
3. Buy a nice house in the country, although not too isolated. Maybe on a lake.
4. Establish a trust fund for my children (and their children probably).
5. Donate the rest to charitable organizations.

Yes!

I use that reference quite a bit in real life.

1) throw enough into savings accounts so that I could live off of the interest
2) pay off my college fees
3) meet my internet friends
4) go into Burger King and order one of everything
5) a pack of gum

1. Pay off mine and all families bills
2. Buy home and couple new vehicles
3. Complete video game collection
4. Get whatever my other half wants
5. Start up social programs towards education and helping the homeless get re-established

Finally begin the systematic murder of my enemies.
Give 4/5 of what's left to worthy causes (because who needs a billion dollars?).

1.) Buy all the games and consoles I could ever want
2.) Buy a mansion
3.) Buy all the food I could ever want
4.) Create the world's most successful Video Gaming forum
5.) Live inside of a Video Game world

• Build a state of the art educational facility in my hometown (centering around an aquarium, a planetarium, and a war museum).
• Pay off all the bills my family owes (so no more car payments, etc.).
• Set up dream vacations for the next four years centering around each of the places members of my family would love to visit (one year Japan for me, another Hawaii for father, another Ireland for mother, and another for my brother, though I'm not really sure what his dream destination would be).
• Would invest in different tech companies (space travel, and probably Nintendo).
• Would donate more than enough money to our local Church to keep them going for years.

1. Pay all of my parents debts
2. get rid off credit on my home
3. open kindergarten and school
4. buy a new house
5. save for life without stress

I'd buy a PS3 and a Wii U. Then I'd buy Tales of Zestiria, Ni No Kuni, Ico and Shadow of the Colossus HD, Uncharted, Wonderful 101, Splatoon, and Smash.
Then I'd update the Wireless card and the RAM in my computer
Then I'd buy every Muse, Three Days Grace, and Nirvana album
Then I'd probably go and buy myself a Tesla Model S
Then I'd buy some music lessons, either singing or cello
Then I'd pay off my college loans
Then I'd save up the rest to get me through Medical School and any other grad degrees I pursue.
If I have extra time, I'd like to take a big trip to Japan and Singapore.

That probably doesn't even crack 2M though...

A few higher cost endeavors (all of these probably wouldn't be possible)
I'd save money in hopes of a future political campaign
I'd throw money at Warner Bros so that they bring back Young Justice, preferably on the CW.

And here are the noble ones (again they all probably wouldn't be possible at once)
I'd start an endowment for a free Tutoring charity. This group would take advantage of youth community volunteers, but it would also teach the volunteers how to be effective teachers.
I'd start a medical website, where people can go to better understand the pros and cons of different procedures and medications including cost
I'd start a non-profit dedicated to providing education medical resources for children born with Cerebral Palsy in the developing world.

1. Buy the house off my parents.
2. Buy all the Nintendo stuff I couldn't get previously (Wii U + games, upcoming amiibo, funds on the eShop, etc.).
3. Spend whenever on improving the house; security, better furniture, etc.
4. Invest in Nintendo, generally help out in whatever meaningful way I can.
5. Save the rest for miscellaneous means.

1. Get a house, car, and some furniture, and some food.
2. Donate to charity
3. Go on a cruise.
4. Buy a crapload of Videogames and movies.
5. Get a pool.

Based on the modest lists posted here, a more appropriate thread title would have been "5 Things You'd Do If You Had A Couple Million Dollars"

My list

1. Buy a collection of classic muscle cars
2. Buy a large cottage in Muskoka, Ontario
3. Buy condo's in several major cities (Bangkok, New York, LA, Toronto)
4. Bang supermodels
5. Take friends on lengthy beach holidays every year

I would buy the rights to the Banjo Kazooie franchise and do nothing with it.

Besides the obvious things, (Buy a big house, pay off family debts, go on vacation, etc.) I would...
1) Buy a ton of pinball machines, and maybe even start my own pinball arcade. I might build some of my own, original pins as well.
2) Give a large portion to my church so that we could afford our own building and other expenses.
3) I'd probably buy one of those VR cockpits that simulate all the motion of an airplane, as well as a VR headset, for the ultimate VR experience. I'd basically have a room devoted to VR.
4) Hire a composer and a live orchestra to perform live versions of some of my favorite songs to my liking. The music would be released for purchase and probably also go live.
5) Build Super Meteorite.

Burn everything, except for 10.000$ (just to annoy everyone), which I'd spend on importing all kinds of Limited Editions of games I like, and an arcade machine of Guilty Gear XRD, hand-signed by Daisuke Ishiwatari.
