GEORGE!
You are going to HADES!


Does that mean we can't go shopping and nag each other to death?

I like Ed's idea about a trip to Europe, except that I'd move there permanently. In fact, I'm going to do that next summer

and if anything is left after that i'd get a ticket to alabama and tie scott to a chipmunk infested tree at such and angle that he can see me doing burnouts in his mystic ah and to say hello to all you hicks down there
same here, but where is Scott?

I would buy a FORD GT, a 04 Mystic, a 03 Cobra in black, a 03 cobra in sonic blue, and a house with a big garage, then i would save the rest for the turbos and kenne bell's

Payoff the house I can't afford thanks to my soon to be ex-#@$%*#@. Buy my parents new vehicles and set up an acount for my kids that the ex can't touch. I'm sure I would splurge on me a new car or two as well as my own land to go hunting and fishing. I would try to lease my own personal patrol tank for work too.

P.S. I would buy Vishal(aka Arin's lil brother) a 49er's themed 07 Shelby just for the reaction from Arin.

I'd put it in the bank & collect interest until I had 2 mill... then I'd spend one mill & save the other...

Yes, but can you drive them all at the same time.

First, I would buy my dad a new truck............He always drove junk so me and my brothers could have nice vehicles. Then I would pay off all my bills and take a long trip to the Australian Outback and rough it for a while. I've always wanted to go there.

A million bucks doesnt go as far as it used to.



Even at 3% compounded annual interest, we would have to put in 3mil to be able to retire, and live off the interest here in Cali. Not live well either, live exactly the way we do now.
why only 3%? with a million bucks you should be investing a little more aggressive. Now, I'm a VERY conservative person with my money, and I'm basically all in cash since I have little money. But over the long run, stocks and real estate always fair better than cash. Cash barely keeps up with inflation.

i got a good one 4 u arin...buy the 49er's! even though a mil is probably not enough...

ok, new plan

I would get a cigarette speedboat, get my parents new cars (mom lexus sc430 or maserati spider, dad old boss 429, shelby cobra, or new shelby cobra), get a nice house w/ a big garage, bulid a go kart track and get a few shifter karts, create a die-cast room in the house w/ thosands of cars on display (I would get every car from autoart), and I'd still stick w/ the merc. benz cls-55 amg, but also get the new cobra for fun...and a boss 429..then save the rest (if there's any left...lol)

I'd dump it in some stable bank account or bond and just use the interest to buy toys, vacations, roll into kids college funds, etc.

Definately wouldn't pay off the house. Too nice of a tax deduction. And with the money from the interest...paying the house payment wouldn't hurt as much.
