million dollar...

What would you do if you have a million dollar??

Invest in a small company. Or, take a stand about how edu. should meet the needs of students.
 
I'd use the interest to supplement my income and then use it to build a lovely marble statue of me before I die.

Thus living well,
Annoying my heirs,
and spending a vast sum of money on a self indulgent trinket.

That would be my three major ambitions fulfilled.
 
I would donate them to PhysicsForums.com Admistration :wink:
 
i will build ahouse in a very far place to live in it and do charity works with the rest of the money
 
I'd buy a t-shirt that said:
"I'm a millionaire and all I bought was this stupid T-Shirt!"

or maybe not...
 
I would give it to someone who would give it back to me :)
 
I would buy some houses to rent out, take the income.

I would spend my life as I liked.
 
I would invest half of the money in housing and the stock market, and let the other half sit in an interest bearing account.

I would use what income I needed as generated from both sources, and turn the unused profit back into the investments.

When I acquired enough capital, I would begin buying small, troubled buisnesses in an attempt to turn them into profitable enterprises.

Then I would die, leave the money to my kids, and they would most likely promptly waste it.
