How will you spend $10,000,000? [For Fun]

1. Purchase my own house with a great view in Vancouver, BC: 2,500,000.
2. Furniture, housing upgrades, electronics, etc.. : 1,500,000
3. Invest/Save some of the money: 2,500,000.
4. Invest in a local community center: 500,000.
5. Major shopping spree: 500,000.
6. Education (myself and brother), parents mortgage: 500,000.
7. Purchase a house in Tofino, BC + furniture: 2,000,000.
8. Rent out the Tafino house when not in use: Compete with local housing rates - see below

October - May: $1300.00/Week
July & August: $2500.00/Week
June & September: $1600.00/Week

Overall Profit From Tafino Home: $74,400/Year


10,000,000 Dollars Spent.

3,500,000 in investments/savings to pay off taxes.
Education for myself and brother paid off.
Parents mortgage paid off.

I realize that some prices may be over calculated..

So, how would you spend $10,000,000?

Let's see: $10,000,000 = ~£5,000,000. With that, I think I would:

-Pay off student loan.
-Nice house (and maybe treat my parents to a new home too).
-Expand my CD and games collections... big time.
-A bit for charity.
-The rest can go in the bank to accumulate.

I bet that'd buy us a bag of penny sweets.

- GO FIND ADAM.
- Don't work, ever.
- Buy a jacuzzi.
- Somehow buy the ability to swim.
- GO SEE TYLER.
- Buy my mum a freaking place.
- Or a mail order husband.
- Charity.
- ...There might be some Australian I'm forgetting about too.
- Why of course, Pete.
- Go meet other randomers online.

Why, I'll send it all to you Syntax!

--

I'd keep it, I'm only 14 so I'll buy like 1 million premium bonds and have 9 million in the bank and eventually get the 1 million back from the bonds.

Oh and I'd give Tyly 12 million, where that 12 comes from I don't know. I'll mooch.

I would bank it all until I had thought through my options very logically. Some of the things I'm almost certain I'd get at are:

-Opening a gym with a ridiculous amount of equipment.
-A wrestling ring and professional wrestling training, even if its just as a hobby. I can't possibly express how much I'd give just to be able to step into a ring.
-The best education I can find.
-I might get around to meeting some people
-Rather than giving money to charity, I'd surprise people with it every now and then. What's cooler than hiding $10,000 in a friend's house *anonymously* when you get word that they're having financial issues?
-Hire a decent personal trainer and/or dietician that tells me what I'm supposed to hear, rather than what I want to hear. Stupid PTs...
-Meet a few other less-important-but-still-really-important people (I'm looking at you, Paul Levesque).
-Hook a certain two people up.
-Give Emma the best birthday anyone has ever had.

Big house
Big stuff
Invest and get some high percentage shares in a big business
Watch my profit roll in and purchase more stuff.

Since I was younger, I've always wanted a full size Snooker table in my house, and a Tennis Court in the garden - thus they would be purchased.

If I have kids, and I still had such money (which I would), I wouldn't spoil them. I'd teach them to appreciate money.

Money for family.. friends.. charities here and there.

I think it would be pretty boring tbh. I like working/waiting for stuff. With things in general aswell, like I find it hard to appreciate overinterested girls for example, find it more fun to try and 'woo' (lolgay) them.

Fin.

I'd go into business - I don't know what , then make a load more money, buy a house (BLOODY HUGE VICTORIAN ONE AT THAT, IN BERKSHIRE.) and continue in work, and live a pretty easy life.

G.L.A.M.O.R.O.U.S, we're flyin' first claaaass, up in the sky..
Oops, okay got carried away.

- AFRICA, CAT SHELTERS, MUSIC PROGRAMS. I would take care of charity first. After I bought a nicer tiara and the bubblegum pink Balenciaga First Classique bag I'm after...
- My mom does not need money, and I generally dislike my sisters. My father's side of the family are assholes and my mom's side is taken care of by an uber rich uncle, so I wouldn't be all that charitable to family. So I'd give heaps to my best friend and her mom.
- I don't like financial stuff so I'd probably give it to the boyfriend to invest, he's all mature and whatnot.
- Buy him all the camera gear and drum stuff he can handle.
- I'd organize a big Wiichat orgy meeting for the people I like. And even some people I don't like...they would get coach tickets though xD. It would be fabulous. FIERCE.
- Go to Liverpool to see Lewi, and since I was in the area, knock on Emma's door with a Girls Aloud CD plane ticket as a present to Adam. Well it wouldn't just be one plane ticket, it would be a special one that let her go to Michigan whenever xD.
- Go to Brooklyn to hang with Blisssssss.
- Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Burberry Prorsum, Marc Jacobs, Zac Posen, DSquared, Balenciaga, Christian Dior, Juicy Couture...
- Oh yeah, I'd get somewhere to live.

EDIT: An HD video camera and an endless supply of Lindor chocolate for melting purposes.
