I'd give several thousand to charity because I'm just that nice, then I'd save and spend the rest! Come here Mr. Flatscreen!

Oh and I would probably just spend it on stuff stupidly and still it would last for like 10 years or so.

Like I said on the first thread.. I would live my life completely the same as I am now. I'd just have money for whatever opportunity I needed to use it for.

several thousand to charity is not much at all, really. do you really need 99,000,000 dollars any more than you need 50,000,000? no, unless you are a greedy person who spends it all, not thinking about the wealth of future generations and wasting and using up as many resources as possible. i think people would be comfortable donating 50,000,000 dollars and still having 50,000,000; i would be extremely happy with that. i would probably donate at least 10 million to some charity, then invest with some more, and then collect interest with the rest in a bank account hopefully. 60 or 70 mill would collect enough interest a year to pay a baseball player his minimum salary (like 250k or something like that) also, you could keep some in cash, and then make sure that the interest would continue the wealth for posterity. in any case, i'm sure it'd be an extremely lucky situation that everyone dreams of.

Basically with that kind of money you could very very comfortably live for the rest of your life. So long as you aren't a complete moron and spend it all right away on a bunch of crap you don't need.

I'd put it all in a high interest account or CD and just live off of the interest.
I wouldn't buy a big house or anything, I'd live normally and make the money last, and instead of donating to charity, which doesn't really do much anyway, I'd probably go out and help homeless people with it, like buy them a $5,000 gift card to a resturant or something.

With $100 million? Of course I would give $100,000. Actually, I would probably give around $500,000 to the important charities (Sick kids hospital, homeless people, AIDS fund, cancer research, etc).

I don't need $100 million dollars really, I'd probably only use a million (Buying a house, a car, paying off student loans, buying my brothers some crap)

Yeah...

Oh. It's 100 million, not just a million.

You know what I'd do with it?

Two chicks at the same time.

I dunno, maybe I'll let it sit in the bank and collect interest. I'll only take out what I need from it, and keep the rest.

Yeah! Living off interest! Fun!

The percentage for interest is 3%, right?

100,000,000 x .3 = 30,000,000

W00T!!!

In all seriousness. I'd probably keep 3mil and put in the bank and let it build itself with intrest. Take the rest and donate it to things to help the world.
