What would you do with it?

When I was in the 6th grade Buffy the Vampire came out and I liked the question posed in the movie so much that I ran around with a little notebook writing down answers - it was my for own personal research (or what counts as research to an 11-year-old). I think I collected over 100 different answers from different students ranging from sex to social causes.

Just wondering what the college students have to say. Drunk and bored, waiting for a batch process to complete (rotating 500+ images 270 degrees).

not a college student, but i'd pay off my house, buy a place at the beach, a place at the mountains and an M5 BMW.

then i'd put the rest in a CD account so no one could touch it for a year and i could have it back!

$5 million for one day?

Assuming that once I spent it it had to be taken away from me, I'd just give the money away to charity. I'm sure the world food program wouldn't mind a little money.

i'd buy 5 mil worth of real estate, sit on it until the housing crisis settles itself out, then profit

[Edited on May 11, 2008 at 1:14 AM. Reason : ^ brings up a good question. is the 5 million only for a day, then what you bought would be void?]

No, the money itself is temporary, but your expenses are not.

Why don't you just rotate them 90 degrees in the other direction, that should save a lot of time.

pay off student loans and future tuition for myself, family and friends
buy an apartment in Manhattan
buy a downtown condo in Asheville
round-the-world trip with friends

however, since those things all take time I'd get myself 2.5 million euros and put it in a bank

Paint Shop Pro counts it samey same. I was looking at the code and it literally said counter-90.

I would use 4 million to buy something that would appreciate in value greatly over the next 2-3 years and then sell it after a few years. With the remaining 1 million I would buy cars, gadgets, other possessions, a hosue to live in, give to family, charity etc.

As for the the thing I would buy with the 4 million, the best thing I can come up with which will grow rapidly in value with almost no risk is ~1,000 sf ft Armani Apartment the Burj Dubai, the world's tallest building under construction.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burj_dubai

There is no question the value will double within 3-5 years. People who bought 2-4 bedroom villas for USD 150,000 on the Palm islands in Dubai 8 years ago are selling them now USD 1,000,000+. Madness.
