You knew it was coming. If all of a sudden you became filthy rich, as in a millionaire or billionaire and you can keep that amount of money (or make more) would there be something you'd make sure to do for another person?

So basically, if you had an infinitestimal amount of money, how wouyld you spend it? I would firstly make sure that my parent's mortgage is paid off, then my girlfriend's uni debts were cleared. Then...i guess i'd make sure i have a reasonable car that gets me from A to B (occasionally through C), enough for a nice home and put some away for the future - children's funds, enough for retirement etc. The rest would go on a nice laptop, enough hosting for the business, a couple of holidays for family/friends etc. Nothing really flash but just so finances wouldn't be an issue in the future

I'd probably get my way through college to get a degree in the humanities. Then go off get a kid (I want to adopt), and travel the world to distant places that people have a rough life to live. Seeing and spending time with those and possibly making connections to the US Government to bring some families back for at least some people can have a better life. I will sponsor a lot of organizations, mainly Make-A-Wish and CARE

Give it all away; I make do fine with what I currently have, as do my parents. Other people need it, not me.

I'd use some of it in real estate. I'd use some on a world tour wit a cupl of frnds - i'd save a lot. I'd buy a ton of stuff for my dad. I'd give away a lot to charity. I'd buy Britney Spears a life. I'd have my own restaurant chain
