What would you do if you had $1,000,000,000 and only 6 hours to spend it? All the extra money gets taken away from you.

I'd buy a house. I'm sure if you have all the money already and find a house you can get everything done in 6 hours. And if I only had a few minutes after that left I'd go in to local stores and buy all the scratch tickets.

I would buyout the people giving me this money and make them my workers. Then if they tried to take the money back I would fire them.

Buy a house, a few cars, a few clothes and material things, invest, buy stocks and then everything else would immediately go to charity and the needy. There wouldn't be a cent left to take.

get my stockbroker ready and on the phone, wait 5 hours 59 minutes, buy 1 billion dollars worth of shares of a big company, wait until the 6 hours are up, then sell the shares and I would have billion dollars.

Then I would probably buy a reasponable cost house around 2 million dollars, buy a very expensive car and furnish my house. Put the rest in the bank, and live off the ridiculous amount of interest while contributing the rest to charity.

Whats 5% of around 97 million anyway? 5 million a year about? 4 million of that would probably go to charity, the rest would be spent on living expenses(food, clothing, and entertainment, and utilities)

I would of course give 1 million to each of my relatives first, to make sure that they are well off.

I would probably also take some money, walk down the street and just hand money to people.

House? I'd Buy a friggin remote neighborhood and hire people to live inside them. Then Demolish the center 4 houses and hire illegals to build me a gigantic brick and stone tower, straight up. At the same time i would hire a construction company to dig a 20 foot moat around my towers perimeter with 5 bulldozers and 6 excavators.

while the later was going like clockwork, and with hours to spare i would hire a private military contractor to patrol and secure my neighborhood on a 40man 10-25 year contract. With the remaining hundreds of millions left and secured in my giant brick tower. i would spend the rest wisely trying gain more money, and perhaps invest in my own bank. Called TowerBanks.

I would kill whoevers going to take it from me FingerSub

wheres the fun in that? your rich enough to play the cops and robbers game.

Obviously, I'd start out with some hookers. Lots and lots of hookers... Then I'd buy a Ferrari, a few islands in the Pacific, and every game on every console. Then hire some 10 year olds to destroy the crap games.

buy everything on STEAM, go on pla.com and buy myself all the games + DVDs + consoles i could ever want, go on overclockers and buy myself a ton of PC components, and a bunch of 30" monitors, then i guess i'ld just go crazy buying printed tshirts, jeans and a load of converse high tops, k-swiss and vans, within 6 hours i'ld easily spend a few mil

In the last few seconds i'ld buy myself some shares, maybe just buy out anything left on the stock market

putting some in the bank is TECHNICALLY using it, so I know I'd do that.

I'd pay off my university in advance, buy a bunch of instruments, a big house in Toronto, some nice cars, nice things for my family so they can have what they need and leave me alone, buy all the cd's, vinyl, games, books, movies possible...

just a lot of senseless consumerism really.
