Alright warriors,
let`s play one game to get know each other better.

So,
if someone would give you money to spend on whatever you want, with only one condition - to spend it within next week, what would you do with:

1) $100
2) $1.000
3) $10.000
4) $100.000
5) $1.000.000

Honest answers only, please. :rolleyes:

  • I will just answer the 5)

    Honestly, I will look for a property or set of properties which are generating rental income and buy it out. Then not only will my $1m grow but also I would get passive income which I can spend without reasoning!

    And here's something related to it.

    • I will donate some of them to build a center for educating people of becoming financially wealthy and build a troop to fight world poverty and hunger. Sounds idealistic, may be I am, but it's breaking my heart each time I heard that a child must die because of malnutrition.
  • That is easy!
    Start with $100
    Repeat what you make with $100 (easy)
    In a short while you will make 1K.
    Repeat that and 10K is done.
    Same goes for 100K and a million.

    So recap:

    When you know what will bring you $100
    1 million isn't that hard.
    Outsource what you know!

    Regards,

    Mike

    2) $1.000 I'd buy a bottle of bubbles and stand out in my front yard.
    3) $10.000 I'd go to Old McDonald's and order a Big Mac and give them the change.

  • $1M doesn't really get you much these days does it! If I ever win the lottery I doubt I would give up work - I look forward to going to be honest and then look forward to coming home to see the kids. I suppose it would be nice to work three days perhaps but my ideal thing would be to set up a charity. £90 million was split between two winners last week in the UK - what would you do with £45M?!
  • $100 - Invest in another Mini Affiliate Site
    $1000 - Buy a round trip ticket to see my girlfriend back in Cali.
    $10000 - Invest in a writer to help me write a book on depression and my experiences.
    $100000 - Invest in the development of a website that inspires people to lead their own lives with self improvement and personal development.
    $1000000 - Invest in a stock broker to take care of it (most likely ask him to pull it out by next March since I heard the stock market's going to bail again). Take the dividends and fly my girlfriend around with me while I travel for my work.
  • Although my own immediate needs are for surgery and a carer while I recover (if I ever manage to arrange it) I am surrounded by people worse off than me.

    Cash gifts would be used to relieve some of those people. Money is not an answer but it can be a good interim solution.

    Yes. I am perfectly serious.
