thats not very atypical.

Considering it's usually two guys at the same time.... :Q












1) Buy a boat and do some chartered-based fishing tours for a summer
2) Retrace the Griswold family trip from Chicago to "Wally World"
3) Spend a week in Peoria, IL
4) Open a bed and breakfast in Death Valley, CA

I would order the replication (at scale) of the taj mahal entirely out of ramen noodle bricks and then boil it in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

You only need a million dollars to hook that up.

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure I could hook that up with a million dollars."

How about making Elton perform every night for a couple years?

hmmmm



seriously though, an IMAX theatre (developed by Canadians eh) in the house, frosted malt machine, help free captive primates, and bring back Seinfeld.

You probably meant X-Com since JA2 gets no love, but the free fan-made Urban Chaos total conversion for Jagged Alliance 2 is _very good_ I'm playing it now.

[Howard]

I would oversee the construction of my house.

EDIT: With lots of cool stuff in it. Like an indoor koi pond.

 

[quakefiend420]

i would try to find enough oem parts to build a complete brand spanking new 86 300zx just like mine...how cool would that be to jump in a 19 year old car and put the first mile on it

i would build an olympic sized pool filled with green jello

i would buy a small country and name it bob

i'm sure there's more i could come up with

Two Veyrons, a Zonda, a McLaren, a few F1 cars, a few bikes, and a huge track on a new estate.

I'd buy those cars plus some others, but instead of the track I'd buy an estate on or near the nurburgring - maybe put my office on the other side so's I'd have a good drive to work every day.

I could see myself getting into weapons. Everything from sweet ancient knives and swords throughout the ages to spear's and other battle tools (maces, etc) to new guns. Shotguns, rifles, hand guns, cannons...

This would only be if I had too much money I could ever know what to do with. I'm a pretty practical guy so I would have to be ridiculously wealthy to even think about blowing money on this kind of stuff.

Which is the point of this thread.

Oh, I would also build an alternative to city transportation. It would be kind of the same concept of a monorail, but it would be a rollercoaster. A bigass rollercoaster that goes everywhere. It would have the works, loops, huge drops, etc.

 

[InlineFour]

how many ever i can buy of this with a billion dollars and setup the biggest lan party.

 

[Cpt Cupcake]

I'd look for just the right old looking gothic church or theatre and turn it into an industrial/goth/metal private nightclub.

 

[Malfeas]

A harem.

 

[Dr. Detroit]

I would have a large enough piece of property to build a few road course race-tracks on. Courses like Laguna-Seca, Mid-Ohio, Road America, Nurburging would be used to create mine!

I would also follow in Jay Leno's footsteps in restoring old classic cars while having a stable of 200+cars along with my own on-site mechanics and fabricators.


I really really love cars!

 

[Leper Messiah]

I'd build a gaint Folding at home farm. like 1000 2xopty 280 PCs. And have someone build me a 20Ft dia Death Star II, plus other assorted Star Wars things out of legos.

 

[aswedc]

Found a for profit, single campus based university. The online ones make millions, same formula could apply. Then, I would start a D1-A football team, be the head coach, and win the national championship. And spend the rest of the money having the science department cure cancer. Aypical enough?

 

[swtethan]

mansion, airplane hanger, fill with cars
