Title: Suddenly you're a millionaire
Post by: metroshane on August 11, 2003, 02:47:57 PM
Some suggestions please.  Say you just found out your rich old uncle left you his entire fortune.  Millions of dollars. What would you do.  This isn't the Office Space "what would you do with a million dollars", this is different.  I'm looking for actual physical things you'd do once you had a million in your bank account.  Would you feel free to get that tattoo you've always wanted on your forehead?  Would you ask your girl to marry you.  Would you kick your bosses ass?  Would you call all your ex girlfriends and taunt.  Would you take up heroin, get drunk?  Would you buy lot's of jewelry?

You get the idea.  What would you do?

I'd immediately take off for a 6 month backbacking trip through Europe. Well, backpacking with the occasional stop at the Ritz.

I'd buy my parents and Grandmother new houses. Pay off my house. Nothing self mutilating though.

I'd spend $500,000 on a feature, and use the rest to relocate to NY or some such place.

1) Take a whirlwind tour of Europe (lingering extra long in Amsterdam)
2) Buy a nice apartment in San Diego (maintaining my bachelor status kicks ass at the moment)
3) Quit my job (of course)
4) Take as much time as needed to pound out a feature film

Self-finance my film, then buy plane tickets for all the members here for a special xixax.com only screening and after-party.

im wondering if the question asked came from a 13 yr old -- if you had any understanding of commerce in realtion to modern living, you'd realize that a million dollars isn't the "key" to freedom -- you'd be able to live comfortably for a few years and then the fun would be up. but you probbaly wouldnt know that becuase your mommy pays for everythign you pathetic peice of shit...thats what id do with a million bucks.

I'd go to the slutty bar in town and let it be known that I came into a ton of money, and that the coke is on me, for any fake-titted waitresses who wanna have some fun.

Then I'd go to Vegas and do the same at the Hard Rock Pool.

Then, after a week of recovery, when I got all the VD under control, I'd settle into making a film with all my own money, so I could do whatever the hell I'd want. Then I'd use the rest to distribute it myself.

Oh, I'd buy some dvds too. And get some cars and things for parents and friends.

But skanks first.

I give a big chunk to charity, and wouldn't be nice for the rest of my life with the excuse "Hey man I gave a whole lot of cash to charity, that makes me a better man than you can EVER hope to be!"  It would make me some sort of superior person, right?

Interesting... both your parents have balls and your going to get your dog a chew toy, then take it away from her and bring it with you to South America.  Is that where your other dog lives?

I'd buy P a cozy for his new Universe then I'd blow the rest on Chex mix.
