The Hidden One Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 Probaly jump off a cliff into a stickerbush WITH a parachute with my clothes lit on fire.
Emperor Devon Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 I'd probably buy a huge house and stuff to go in it, live in complete isolation with no direct human contact. I'm not a people person, he he.
Derc Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 ^^^ Except the question is, "What would you do for a million dollars"! Well, I'd watch Gigli... ... Well maybe that's too cruel...
Emperor Devon Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 Oh, it's what I'd do FOR a million dollars. I'd kill someone.
stingerhs Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 hmm, i've never thought about this one. maybe i'd finally break down and attempt to play the Final Fantasy games. no guarentees on actually finishing them, much less any guarentees on the "wholeness" of your Playstation controller..... of course, i could try listening to some boy bands for two hours w/o puking my guts out.... Probaly jump off a cliff into a stickerbush WITH a parachute with my clothes lit on fire.then you'd need the million dollars for hospital expenses, at least in the US.
lukeiamyourdad Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 A blow... >_> Like you would really refuse if you had the chance... Probably listen to every Backstreet Boys album without trying to commit suicide.
Jeff Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 watch "Rocket Power" (worst cartoon ever, no plot) nonstop for 24 hours
ChAiNz.2da Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 Originally posted by lukeiamyourdad A blow... >_> Like you would really refuse if you had the chance... ^^^^ For a million bucks... I'd take pictures and post them on some sleezy porn site
Emperor Devon Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 For a million dollars, I'd betray my country.
RedHawke Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 A Million Dollars doesn't go very far, a half-decent house will set you back at least half to 3/4 of the million alone... add a nice vehicle to that and you are almost broke... Just a thought...
Emperor Devon Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 Sadly, Redhawke, that's true. If you already have a house, it'll go a long way, but won't set you for life. Ah, well. I'd still like a million dollars! EDITED FOR PUNCTUATION.
Sabretooth Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 Become a game-tester for Valve, ID, Raven, Ensemble Studios etc. Get money for playing games!
nas77 Posted April 10, 2005 Posted April 10, 2005 Well $1m is only a little over half a million pounds over here which is barely gonna get you a good house in London. Still, I might be willing to listen to all the Jar-Jar dialogue from Eps 1 and 2 spliced together and then looped over and over for 24 hours straight... ...Well maybe 12 hours straight... ...6 hours... ...5 minutes... nah, forget it.

Just a thought... You'd spend $250,000 on a car?
RaV™ Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 I'd buy a Chic Fil'a or however you pronounce it, cause they make some good cash
Hallucination Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 I'd run into the white house with a beige towel wrapped around my head screaming 'AHLALALALALALAALA' and jump on Bush's desk. I'd do that anyone so...

Just a thought... Houses must cost a lot more where you are. And cars.
ChAiNz.2da Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 Originally posted by Boba Rhett Houses must cost a lot more where you are. And cars. It's all about location In TN, you can get a really nice house for around $150,000 - $250,000 but go to New York where the market value just recently went up and just a loft lease can easily run you a half-million...
Boba Rhett Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 Such amazingly scaled economies depending on where you go. It's incredible. I've never been happier to live in Iowa.
Bob Lion54 Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 A million dollars isn't as much as it used to be. Have you ever noticed how many lotto winners go bankrupt? That said, I would go on, and win, Fear Factor for a million dollars. Look out Joe Rogan!!! Here comes Lion!!!! roar
lukeiamyourdad Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 Originally posted by Lion54 A million dollars isn't as much as it used to be. Have you ever noticed how many lotto winners go bankrupt? That's because humans are stupid. They get a million and instead of spending responsibly, they go on spending sprees and end up flushing all of their cash on crappy stuff.
stingerhs Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 ^^^^ well, that would depend on how you look at it. first, you have to realize that most people don't really make money: they spend it. the 10% of the American population that actually makes money also hold over 90% of America's wealth. the other 90% of the population, on the other hand, is largely in debt and lives from paycheck to paycheck. now, when you look at the lottery, you have to realize that the large majority of those that buy the lotto tickets are those that spend money instead of making it. if they're used to spending money all the time, an increase in money is only going to increase their spending. thats why the lottery winners usually end up broke: the winners just keep doing the same things they've always done, and thats to spend money. its not that they're stupid, its just that they don't realize that investment (making money) is a much better choice than to continually spend their money.
