    Might splash out and buy myself a pint or two.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    I'd probably just buy a bunch of monkeys and let them decide what to do with the rest of the money.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭Kinetic^


    Probably buy myself a new shirt.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,773 ✭✭✭Binomate


    Buy your house and have it demolished.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 68,190 ✭✭✭✭seamus


    I would buy back the estate where I grew up (not the house, the entire estate), demolish all but my old house and the one next door, and join the two houses together into a big mansion. Then I'd have the entire estate walled off with 3m walls, stick in landscaped gardens, a private skatepark and a small section with its own public entrance and a stage for small gigs.

    That would set me back about €60m. So then I'd probably build a large data centre on the outskirts of Dublin, and start up a competing business for Data Electronics.

    Invest the rest tbh.

    piss it up against a wall


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,562 ✭✭✭connundrum


    Shhit myself

    Buy new underwear

    :v:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,724 ✭✭✭BoozyBabe


    Make sure all my family & friends were sorted for life.
    Build myself a mansion with all the latest gizmo's in it.

    Buy some nice big fancy car (don't know what yet, maybe that bugatti on top gear!!)

    Give loads of it to charities all over the world (I mean I'm never going to spend all that money in my life time)

    Never work again, except maybe for fun.
    Live extremely comfortable off the interest for the rest of my life


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭Kinetic^


    I'd defo finish my training contract out, although if they asked me to do work they'd probably be told where to go :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 975 ✭✭✭squibs


    Buy €150 million worth of lottery tickets.

    I'd post here to piss ye all off & then I'd be Gone!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,230 ✭✭✭scojones


    I'd buy YORE MA!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 700 ✭✭✭hoody


    I would release the same record every three years or so, go on ginormantic world tours ranting about the underprivileged everywhere except where I actually am, give the Pope my shades, protest & sue any time anyone attempts to steal my hat/my used tissue/my breath, get angry about how poor the Third World is and how the Western World has neglected it for far too long, ask for their debt to be cancelled, now, please, organise overblown concerts all over the world every 20 years, appear in the papers everyday saying how "sexy" charity is, et cetera, et cetera...

    All the time ensuring my own wealth perpetually increases, to the point where people start to believe (as I do) that I am in fact God.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,805 ✭✭✭Setun


    I'd buy everyone a drink at the next Beers ;)

    <and then take over Boards, and abolish the Free Press>


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,968 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    I'd faint then be happy.

    Seriously I'd buy a faboulous house and a fleet of classic cars and employ two or three Czech beauties to look after me and my needs.

    Mike.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,735 ✭✭✭ST*


    Wouldnt do anything. I like the misery.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 11,362 ✭✭✭✭Scarinae


    I'd put aside a million to just fritter away on whatever I wanted over the next while, and I'd immediately invest all the rest of it so myself and my family could all live off the interest until I worked out exactly what to do with it. The million is for impulse spending - I'd take time off work and go to Peru, Cambodia, New Zealand, Arizona, South Africa and Austria; buy loads of clothes and shoes; get a masseuse; maybe build a conservatory for my Mum. Oh and I'd get a full head of highlights. Yay! I would continue with college and my job though because I enjoy them both, in fact I would probably just ue the money as an excuse to never get a proper job but just continue racking up college degrees in random subjects. I would love to be able to do that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,106 ✭✭✭turbot


    Ha!

    I think it would be fun to have my own Saurmans tower built somewhere in the irish countryside.

    That would be a serious crib.

    I also think it would be fun to pay for advertising and promotion of a cheesy band you made up in an eastern european country, and buy your way to stardom, by paying for advertising / radio spots / loads of PR. That way you could go on holiday to one country and get chased down the street by fans, and in the rest of the World you'd remain anonymous.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 999 ✭✭✭cregser


    Don't you have to do a press conference for the Euromillions?

    I'd by a security team. Then a big house, flash car and get some honeys to hang around the pool and snort drugs all day long... drugs optional.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 449 ✭✭Airblazer


    Buy penthouses in Dublin/London/Newcastle/Paris/Rome/New York/Washington/Sydney/Tokyo/Barcelona/Madrid.--Materialistic

    Leave my legacy on the world: Spend the rest of my life travelling and visiting every country in the world and try and make a difference to at least 10 ppl's lives in each country...
