Inspired by my posts in the racism thread, this discussion is only for serious minded people.

Only those who want to get down to the bottom of things need post.

Because this is pretty hard hitting, to say the least. Oh yes...

*deep breath*

Okay, here goes:

What would you do if you were worth an ungodly amount of money?

I'm talking J K Rowling and above money here (??500,000,000 plus).

And no "I'll give some to charity" answers here, please, we're aware you at least have the empathy of a chimpanzee.

We're talking over the top spoil-myself-rotten-after-saving-the-world crap here. So go ape-shit with the answers.

I'd own a fucking castle.

And a house on the hill.

And a house overlooking the beach.

And a villa.

And one of those houses in Japan with the wooden sliding doors.

And an expensive apartment.

And my own island.

And a private jet.

And a porsche. Or maybe an Aston Martin, so I feel like James Bond.

And a banged up pick up truck to throw people off somtimes, because I AM an aquarius.

And a motorcycle.

Did I mention I'd own my own island?

Also I'd probably start collecting art and statues or something, just because I can.

And I'd go on adventures into the wild in search of undiscovered animals.

Maybe get my ow observatory built so's I can look into space.

And I'd start a clothing line.

The most thrill I'd get from having an obscene amount of money like that, would probably be making more of it. Challenging and testing my business sense with investments.

the possibilities are endless really, infinite!

i wouldn't just buy a nice house, nice car and order some amazing hookers. but i would really carefully think what i could do with that money which would be totally awesome, amazing and out of this world!

... i'd build a utopian society! a propper one!

I have my whole routine down -

call in to work sick
don't tell a soul...NOBODY (people will murder you for that shit, for real)
I have the route planned out down to Indy where I'd collect the dough
I'd hide out for a week in fancy 5 star hotel until their check clears
I'd be in a real pickle if I won on a Saturday night, it would be so very hard to stay mum all weekend
...and then what?

it goes blank from there. I think I'm more interested in the "feeling" of winning then the actual winnings. I mean, how many people actually get to "feel" that?

In reality, I wouldn't want the trouble that "that much" money would bring.

I'd play with this guy all day...

If i had that much money, my little gambling habbit that i have under control would probably turn into an addiction, i'd probably squander it all, and end up selling myself for crack.

I would NEVER want that sort of money, I would happily take about 10 million but no more.

"build a utopian society"

That's a nice one. And what better way to start then to hire some poor women who??re forced to sell their bodies for money. Gratulations genious! Here's a ✨ just for you!

eh? what when who? no idiot, the women would not be forced into anything! this is a pure utopian society where everything you want is at you disposal witout worrying about the drawbacks. the shitty world outside of my utopian society would the dumping ground for all our shit and stuff. figuratively speaking, and metaphorically.

not a dystopia!

I would buy a house here in England. A huge fuck all cottage or manor house deep in the country.
I would shop for antiques until I fell over.
Buy a new vehicle. More than likely a truck.
I would put most of it in the bank and live simply.
I would travel, everywhere.
I would spoil everyone I loved shamelessly.

The U.K. lotto is quite nice if you win no taxes like in america on it. A bloke who worked with me would not put a pound on it I ask why he said if he won he would be dead in 6 months he thinks the drugs al k hall and women would kill him he said he would give into everthing.

You know what i'd also do? I'd pay off the mortgages of everyone dear to me so's they only go to work because they want to.

I'd also pay for space travel, though that'd probably bite a huge chunk into my finances. Maybe i'll just find somewhere that sells space junk and buy some shit instead.

I'd probaly also live in an Igloo and a Tipi. And I'd own a barn with a windvain, windmill and weathercock.

And I'd arrange for a cinema ticket where I can watch new movies for life.

Crazier, people, dream crazier!

I would build myself a luxurious palace with everything this planet has to offer .

I would also fund science and technology , so humanity could raise their standards of living . Eventually robots should take over 80% of all the boring work (accounting/banking etc).

This will leave the people ample freedom and lesiure time , and they can choose what work to do (THEIR PASSIONS) or not choose to do any work and just enjoy an incredible life style of freedom and fun with their friends /family .

I would hire the best and brightest to make huge advances in technology , to the point we would multiply our resources and MONEY will become obslete .

There would also be amazing virtual reality games for kids , which take them to incredible worlds . ncredible movie /anime content for anyone who desires it .

And new amazing things coming out every day in this brand new utopia of ours .

However there is a slight detail here .................

I control the central command systems for all the robots ....................

LMFAO x100

And then i'd buy all the shows I loved or missed out on, Friends, House, Six Feet Under, The Sopranos, The X Files etc

And go through all of them on the massive-est screen I can find.
