It will be applicable to future generations and adjustable for inflation.

Put as little into each account as possible. If a bank fails, the government will only cover the first $250,000 (so two bank accounts would leave you with half a million dollars), so the more bank accounts the more secure your savings would be.

My SD Card with the game on it is just as physical as your cartridge with the game on it.
I love Nintendo, that's why I criticize them so harshly.

And yes, he is (usually) always right, and he is (almost) the sexiest gamer out there (not counting me) ;)

Not that this will be important for anyone in this thread (we're never going to have a bil Q_Q), but do not put a billion dollars in a bank account. Jaysus. Hell, don't even put a million in a bank account. You gotta invest that or convert it into other assets.

Bill Gates himself probably has like 20k in his chequing account.

Pay off my student loans.
Go to school full time till I finish all the degrees I want (I'm pretty much a professional student at this point).
Pay off my parent's debt.
Establish a college fund for my godson.
Travel.. a lot.

To add a sixth thing because it is important to me. I'd donate a ton of money into research for eye transplants for people that have lost eyes for one reason or another.

1 make sure my imidiate family and friends are all sorted with homes and no debt, with a bit of spare money too.
2 invest in for profit businesses.
3 use that profit to support good causes
4, buy out EA, put them back on track, the way the were during the EA BIG sports era. get them to make the need for speed most wanted dlc for the wiiu and give it away free, and sort out the home button bug too.
5 Start a new development and publishing studio focused on arcade games that use the same hardware as current gen Nintendo harsware, that way I could port them over to the home consoles easily.

Only a billion? Spend some of it buying the Wario series from Nintendo, since they've done nothing good with the series in a while and seem to have no real interest in marketing it.

I'd also buy a decent share in Nintendo, so I could start telling Iwata what to do and all that.
