I'd like to donate it, but nah. I'd keep it for myself & my family and spend it first on what I wanted during these past years.

If I got it after I formed a band, I'd spend it on things that my band would need.
I'd save some too. Hm... I'd probably just buy CDs and crap like that.

Of course I wouldn't be greedy. The half of it goes to charity (Yeah, I know. I have a good heart.
 ) and the half of it i'll spend with every latest technology in the world.

can i just say... in real terms, with today's wealth taken into account... 1 million isnt really all that much.
youd probably be quite dissapointed once you realized how quickly it ran out after you started making extravagent purchases |

I'd probably do something selfish. Like spend most, if not all, of it on myself. Sigh.
Or move to Monte Sereno - it's absolutely gorgeous there. |

shoes clothes and ELECTRONiCS !
i'd only spend about 5oo on shoes, 1ooo on clothes and like 1ooo on electronics. so the rest id use to save for my kids, cos i want my kids to ben spoiled and have everything they'd ever want. but then again i dont want them to be all bratty and used to getting what they want..so id save most of its for their college funds and everything. |

 What a hypocrite. Group: Member Posts: 2,754 Joined: Apr 2005 Member No: 128,150 |
I'd save it, and use the money whenever I need it, but using up the money to do the following wouldn't be bad ideas:
->pay my parent's mortgage/electricity bills ->donate some of the money to shelters or any foundations and researches ->Get a new set of drums for my brother ->a new wardrobe for me from Hollister or AE ->Sony or Twinhead laptop/a laptop of good quality |
