I'll invest half of it in something im sure i'll not face any loss afterwards. With the remaining half. For sure i'll give some part of it to the needy. With the rest i'm gonna buy a car a house. I'll spent 1million on shopping and will save the rest =)
I would invest most of it to later help organizations that deal with world piece and happiness for all human beings and support the no more killing animals for food organizations. Also I would work towards free world energy. I would support medical coverage of holistic approaches for everyone nationwide to world wide. I would support organizations who deal with hiring everyone willing to train and work regardless of credit history or bad credit with good cause. Iwould develop a family business for every family member who would love to participate working in the company with me would benefit as much as me as an owner or will not help out with anything to the lazy ones who just want a hand out. I would help out the aging ones in the family and the children's education for family and strangers in general. AT the end I would take a well deserved vacation in memory of all the joy others before me received when I offered a partnership. I would find me a poor man an honest, hard working man and make him my companion lover and best friend. If nothing of this worked I would pay all my bills earn a great reward of good credit and then give all money away and live a simple life.
I am suprised to see the answers above all want to use the money to invest. Why is that? Need more money?
I would enjoy the life, buy big house, nice car as most people do, and have a professional love consultancy by providing good advice and hold varies parties for people to meeting each other!
Oh, yeah, definitely have a big party for all the blurters to gather together!
What a great question!!! I would buy a very expensive house & not do anything I didn't want!!!!!! First, I'd make sure the check clears the bank!!!! Then I'd clean out my office at work. I'd shop for the house. Am I crazy I have butterflies in my stomach as I type this. I'd buy my big house & just relax..........guess I'm selfish I'm not thinking of the poor-well of course I am-I'm poor!! But of course if I didn't have to work I wouldn't have anybody around to make me miserable!!! I'd probably take some art courses in college.
I'd definitely try and save as much as possible. I'd have kids & stay right at home to raise them.
I would pay off all of my families bills and purchase them what they needed and then buy myself a couple of homes. 1 in Santa Cruz and 1 in Lake Tahoe, then get myself a motorcycle. And set my children up for life.
Well I could do with some new shoes and I'd probably treat myself to a beer :)
In all honesty i'd give family & close friends some money and spend the rest on property, holidays, cars, champagne, gadgets, boats and a financial advisor who would probably not have allowed all previous purchases.
Whoa! What a dream! Well, if I won that money, the first thing that I will do is to buy myself a magnificent and a gigantic mansion. Secondly, I will get myself a hot new car. In addition to this, I would also desire to spend a part of this money on the welfare of the society!
With 35 millions of dollars, I would become an agressive business broker, real estate enterprise, mortgage broker & banker (1st choice), several schools (basic business schools) for adults, and one for pre-teenage and teenage children, several non-profit organizations.
