Send it all to charity. I'd love to see the bank try to claw back its money from dozens of charity organizations.

I wouldn't stop at dozens. I would make sure it would be in the hundreds, if not, thousands of private organizations. Though I wonder if five hours would be enough time... methinks now that might be a little challenging unless you had an army of helpers with you. Heh.

I'd get someone I know and can trust to sell me something stupid for billions of dollars, and then I'd give the item I bought with the money back to the bank. What can I say? I'm a sucker for loopholes.

I'd give some money to people who really need it (Those on welfare get enough already) like haiti for example. And then I guess I'd buy video games and then get both of my parents the thing that they've always wanted.

There would be no point in being a billionaire for a few hours if you were unable to keep any of it. Even if you spent money on services, you'd still have to pay back the same amount in the end, so it would be just like paying out of your own pocket.

Ouch. Reminds of that episode of Married With Children when they gave Buck a credit card. *laughs*

I'd spend it on things that can't be given back, namely food and drink. If I knew ahead of time I'd find as many starving people as possible and feed them, but if I had to plan and execute within five hours I guess finding the neediest people in close proximity would do.

EDIT: best part about this plan is if I really don't like the bank I can decide to return the items I bought out of the goodness of my heart.

I would donate $300 million to every catholic diocese in the nation. Give $500 million to my family and myself. Then donate the rest of random charities.

Pay back the money I owe my mum, buy a car so I can learn to drive in MY OWN CAR, stand on top of a building and throw money down on the people on the streets, then give a large sum to charity.

If I actually was (unlike the article), I'd spend ALL the money. This way I wouldn't care if they took the rest of the money away after 5 hours. I'd still have billions worth of stuff. I like stuff.

Wouldn't work. They will take everything you bought using that money.

Yeah I'd probably get an expensive prostitute. Not going to lie. That's the best thing you can do with money, given it's all going to be taken away after 5 hours

Well it says anything that you bought you would have to return, so I don't know. If I didn't have to return it (or was just unaware that I would have to at some point) I'd probably buy a nice small house with a garage or a basement that I could use as a studio, I'd buy a few vintage gibsons and a nice amplifier or two, and I'd pay off my parent's morgage/ whatever they still owed on all their cars.

1. Buy bonds in a family business.
2. Bank must take the bonds instead of the cash
3. Use 10 year period before maturity and make interest
4. Give bank the money from the bond
5. Live off the Profit

If only I had a family business. :cry:
