One Million

If you have $1M to spend in one day. What will you do with it?

 

Investments. Boring, I know, but 1 million isn't enough these days. You need more to retire.

 

i would start my own business

 

Are there any rules?

If not, I would first buy some negotiable item worth $1million, then spend the rest slowly over the next N years!

If this is a Brewster's Millions question, then I could always by a million pixels from someone!

 

Buy a $1 million in AdWords clicks to make $3 million.

 

I'd probably launch an advertising campaign to double the earnings spent.

 

Red or Black, double or quits.

 

If i had a million there are loads of things i would like to do with it but the sensible thing would be to invest it

 

... spoken like a man who's already got a few million.

 

whoa you all want to invest it eh? hmm i will just spend it on cars, clothes, going out.. just have fun . And i won't forget to give something like 100,000 to amnesty.. for real

 

Get a house with the girlfriend.

 

I'd invest $250,000 into income funds to generate roughly $2000 in monthly income for me to live off of.

I would spend $400,000 on a decent size home for my family.

$25,000 to pay off exsiting debt.

$25,000 to go on a trip to vegas

$100,000 to go to Vancouver Women's and Children's Hospital (it's a hospital specialize in women/infant care here. It's the best in the country and they helped my family on more than one occasion).

$100,000 to revinest into my business activites.

$50,000 to invest in various education savings programs for my daughter.

$25,000 to my wife to do whatever the hell she wants with it.

$25,000 to buy a mansion in some 3rd world country in europe so my family can travel there every year and explore europe for a month.

 

did you forget to pay your taxes?

 

I'd buy 1 million lottery tickets. All scratch offs. Hopefully I'd come out ahead, cuz if I didn't, I wouln;t have money left to help me fix the carpal tunnel I just developed

 

The original question asked if we had $1M to spend what would we do, it never mentioned tax so I assumed it was post-tax. Otherwise I'd only have $450,000 (damn canadian taxes lol)

 

Invest half of it to realstate then the other half Ill buy gold bars(Investments)

 

I'd spend $500,000 on anything I wanted/needed and then invest the rest.

 

i'd buy house and lot. and contribute some for charity.

 

That's exactly what I would do, except that 1 mill would be a bit too much, i would do some math and buy at least , I think, only 1,000$ in scratch offs, if the prizes suck, I would do some more math for the picking numbers and buy tickets with every number order possible... 100,000$? :S

 

Start a milliondollarhomepage.com clone site, and buy EVERY SINGLE pixel myself. MUAHAHAHAHAHA.
