    Well, I'd buy a bunch of cats right and then I'd buy a couple of cars and convert them to taxis.
    Then, I'd buy a few mini cameras and place them around the car to record both the driver and the passengers at the back.
    I'd then spend as much as possible to teach the cats to drive taxis.
    Once they had mastered it I'd start a TV prank show where unsuspecting passengers get into a taxi and then the camera records their look or horror when they saw a cat is in the drivers seat.
    The outcome would be that the taxi crashes because as we know, cats can't drive.
    In short, I'd pay off my mortgage.







    What would YOU do OP?

    This gaming PC

    Comes with a surround sound system and multiple monitors, all built into a freaking chair.

    And I'd only use it for Facebook and Angry Birds.

    I'd build a big eff off adults tree house, with a slide and different levels and bridges to the other awesome extensions of the tree house. Oh! and a zip line.

    I'd need to think about it , I'd start by booking a 1st class ticket to LA from Frankfurt on the 747/8 ... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZapoBlqSSo0)

    In the same vain I'd have a man-cave under my garage equipped with full size snooker table, bar, massive tv etc. The Pièce de résistance however would be the thick glass floor on my garage so I could look up at my fleet of exotica.

    Apartment in New York.

    Apart from buying the obvious (nice house, car, holiday and wife), I'd buy a sizeable piece of land that contained a wooded area. I would then look to build:
    - multiple paintball fields of maps from my favourite Halo/COD variants
    - a scrambler/quad bike racing track
    - clay pigeon shooting area

    I'd then make this available for big days out free of charge to all my friends! Not sure yet if i'd make a company and make it available to the public!

    It would also double as a place to train in order to survive the inevitable pending zombie apocalypse! :D

    Hmm?? You'll have to speak up, I cannot hear you on account of being all muffled up by the ample bosoms of a half-dozen or so seven-foot Latvian valkyrie types who want me to use some of my vast fortune to help them become supermodels. Oh, and they quite like my motorbike as well. :D

    There's a old house in Donegal called Oakfield Park with lots of lovely grounds around it. I'd buy that and happily live there forever. I'd build a luxury spa onto it and I'd happily wile away my days getting pampered and massaged all day.
