Originally Posted By wa6oqc I think that I would buy Disney and take it private so I would not have to respond to stock holders.

I have other ideas but I'll wait to chime in later.
Originally Posted By MomofPrincess I always love thinking like this! First, I'd quit my job and insist my husband do the same. Next, I'd buy him a brand spankin' new truck LOADED with everything.

I would buy my brother a brand new home in the same neighborhood, a maid, and a brand new economy car of some sort. (He's on disability and is mentally ill, though functioning, for the most part.) I'd take us all on a long trip to some amazing getaway, probably some place tropical. I'd put away a huge chunk of money for my kids' college. I'd invest. I would give my in-laws a nice chunk of money, saying $50k-$100k each. I would arrange a huge shopping/spa weekend with my closest girlfriends and treat them all to tons of pampering and give them like $5k spending money each. I would start volunteering at my kids' schools and probably at a nursing home or senior center. I would spend time with people who were lonely and needed a friend. I would open up some sort of center for homeless/low income people where I could hire a staff to give underpriveleged folks makeovers, interview clothes, and serious job (say, computer) skills. I would donate to charities. I would be broke in no time at all. LOL!!!

Buy houses in various places: Anaheim; Celebration; Ashland, Oregon and Cape May, New Jersey. (With maids of course!) 5. I've never been to Europe, so I would travel all around there. I'd also want to go to Australia and New Zealand. 6. Take all my friends and family on a trip to Disneyland. 7. Open up my own theme park. 8. Buy all of my favorite cars and a motorcycle.

I would ask 999Haunts do all of my putting with a ball the color of your choice 7.) I would invest for my kid's futures.

Originally Posted By TexasTeaIII With a budget of say 25 billion I would build the world's most elaborate themepark detailed and themed out more than all of the Disney parks combined but with an adult theme. Absolutely no one under 21 allowed because of the unlimited mixed drinks and abundant sexual themes. Located in Austin, TX. I would call it "Triple X Land". Woman dressed in negligees get in 1/2 price.

Originally Posted By LadyKluck I would buy a ton of land in Wyoming or Montana to start an animal sanctuary - as close to Yellowstone National Park as possible. I would build 2 homes on it - one for DH and I and one for my mom. I'd also have a "guest lodge" built for when friends and family want to come visit & for the folks bringing in animals. I would hire a personal chef - preferably Emril Lagasse or Paula Dean! I'd also buy an older Victorian style home to restore into a bed and breakfast for my mom and aunt to run together. Before I start the sanctuary though, I'd want to travel a lot. Definitely to all of the Disney parks, Germany, Italy, Egypt, etc. You know, on second thought I think I'd just buy a private plane with my own personal pilot so I could just go to these places whenever I felt like it!! One last thing, I would send my mom, her best friend, and my aunt on a really nice Alaskan cruise - you know the one where you take the train ride into the national parks and such - I really would love to do that for them!!!
Originally Posted By LadyKluck Oops, I forgot one more thing - I would give my best friend Casey all the money she needed to be able to open her own clothing/design/costume business - I want her to be the next Vera Wang - only better! Of course, I'd hope she'd let me design a few dresses here and there!
