Your long-lost Uncle Hortence passes away or you played the lottery and the next thing you know...YOU HAVE $1 MILLION!!! Tax-free U.S. currency.

What would you do with your life if this happened to you and what would you change? New house...quit work...splurge...or try and continue your life with no changes.

Let's hear what you would do with $1,000,000

Hm.. the first thing I'd do would totally go out and buy a ton of new clothes, shoes, accessories, etc. I would book a flight to Japan and buy a house there. Um.. just buy like everything I could ever dream of getting. Heehe I'm sure there's more than that but I just can't think of anymore at the moment.

XD That's one way to do it. I don't think it would be very successfu, though, sadly enough.

I'd spend it on college, anime, and manga, and I suppose some new clothes. I'd give some of it to some of my personal causes too, such as GLBT and progressive political causes and to Habitat for Humanity.

So true, I can't be bought

If I had a million dollars, I would first give $500 to my church, and then pay off all my student loans. I have alot. Afterwards I would buy a car and a new wardrobe. My jeans are becoming a little loose. After that I would buy a large amount of manga and anime. Oh, and a starter home. Nothing too fancy.

Arcademan · « **Reply #6 on:** April 28 2006, 12:53 pm »

Okay, since I DID create the topic...

Pay off my parent's house and pay off all their bills because if it wasn't for them, I would be in very bad shape.

I'd save the rest and most likely continue to work (though not as much as I do now) and honestly say having the extra $$$ would not change me or my perspective in life

Hack · « **Reply #7 on:** April 28 2006, 01:00 pm »

give 10,000 dollars to church
give another 10,000 to my family (since there's four, 40,000)
use 20,000 to shopping sprees and buy all the mangas and books and movie and to use daily
then put the rest in my banking account. pretty simple. ^^

Ralea · « **Reply #8 on:** April 28 2006, 08:17 pm »

Monse-chan · « **Reply #13 on:** May 02 2006, 04:55 am »

First of all, buy all the Tsubasa merchandise ever made in the galaxy XD

After that, I could give money to charity, my family, and buy myself a mansion in Hawaii.

When all of these things are done, I would take a plane to Japan and I would bribe Clamp to make the Tsubasa storyline go according to my will!!!! XD!!

(le sigh)

One can always dream, ne?

Use it all to start some sort of school of alternitive thinking, or some sort of place where people can learn what they wish, and not reply on a degrading system. Some place, where people could learn what they feel is right, not a the rules of a festering neon distraction.

Some sort of chance, for people, who want a different life.

Kana-chan · « **Reply #19 on:** August 21 2006, 01:42 am »

Err...give some to family...then move to Japan and join CLAMP! XD (but if I am rejected...T-T ...I'll find Tetsu Inada and live happily ever after! XD yay!!)

Arcademan · « **Reply #21 on:** September 01 2006, 12:26 pm »

Need I add...I'd donate a good portion of that million to CapturedWings

EuphoriaBliss · « **Reply #22 on:** September 01 2006, 08:58 pm »

My friend would definitely like to answer to this!!^^
If I won a million...I'd donate about $100,000 to charity, $200,000 for parents, and $100,000 for my college...(although it may not be needed...^^''). Like what arcademan-san said, I'd donate to cwf too...I always had fantasies where a forum that I always visit would turn into a virtual reality thing like .Hack...^_^'''' (Maybe about $100,000) The rest of it, I'll put in my bank account and travel the world...again!^^ This also includes my shopping spree...^^

marielaure · « **Reply #23 on:** September 02 2006, 03:14 am »

Since I began this thread, if I had the million invested in certain stocks and options, I would've made at least another $50k on interest alone

jacquelinenuyen · « **Reply #27 on:** November 20 2006, 05:16 am »

Spend it on anime stuff and gifts for my friends
