    Right lads, I wana hear what you would do with €100k if you woke up in the morning and found a check for under your pillow.

    I'm looking for suggestions other than the obvious...buy a house.
    Something crossed between sensible and MAD.

    So get the 'ol thinking caps on and lets see what you can come up with.

    :confused:

    Hire out one of those Esso tigers and have um put it on top of me (x)school. Wanted to do that for our 6th year prank but it never materialised.

    Also with money left over ide get insurance. Might just have enough :(

    i would open up a sex shop great money in that or a bookies, or buy some fine breed of a greyhound and race them. and make more money of them :D

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31 poppygirl


    Jim-bob you obviousley hav too much money or a mom/dad who buy you everything you want for you to be able to contemplate burning €100k

    Mc daddy, I like it. I'ed have to test run all the murchandise, just to make sure it worked an all:D

    And Squall, you and you esso tiger could make for a very interesting window display for my sex shop. Could throw a nice blow up sheep into the equation too! What ya think, up for it?

    Bet it all on Ireland winning the next Euro.
    And no, not because im one of the types that think Ireland will win absolutly everything in soccer under brian kerr, but because of the fact that it'll make every match up until the euro 04 is over, much much more exciting.

    Imagine having a €100k bet on ireland winning the world cup, and THEN seeing robbie score in the 91st minute...

    Buy a new car, pay for insurance. Put some money away for maintence.

    Then Id cash the rest of the money, throw it in a pile on my bed and roll in it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,678 ✭✭✭Selik


    I'd smoke it!!! :D:D

    Couldn't you buy TEN million penny sweets with 100k? Or were you actually planning to buy one-million .... and spend the rest on a stomach pump?

    I was also going to like jimbob (and Bill Drummond) and burn the money just to piss people off.

    Either that or go live in some dirt cheap country like Greece or Portugal and live off it for a lifetime.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    i would buy a kick ass PC and get a really good internet connection to go with it. a huge sound system with a huge telly to complement it. i like the idea of that sound proofing so that too. a really comfortable chair and a fridge to sit beside it. maybe a holiday and buy loads of duty free fags and drink for a big party. and a pool table


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 84 ✭✭Kwizatz Anorak


    I'd use half the money to go on a BIG worldwide holiday. I'd go to England and have some fun with friends over there. Then go off to the States, meet up with friends in Boston, probably go to NYC again, so much fun over there. Might go to the other side and take in som LA.
    Then go through South America, take in Machu Pichu and Iguazu Falls (that place from the Mission with Robert Deniro). Go jungle trekking and go on a few trips in those oh-so-safe busses around the mountains in South America. Then I'd go to Australia for a few months, go surfing all over the coast and hopefully be able to surf at the end of it. Go to New Zeland, both islands and I'd have to take in Taranaccy on the North Island...
    I'd come back through Asia and Europe and take as much of each in as I could. There's plenty more but you get the idea.

    The other fifty grand I'd probably need for therapy for the years of mundane working after coming back to reality after a trip like that.
    Anybody got the money and want to come with?....

    I'd put it up as a prize for the first person to scale the Spike on o'Connell st
    !Nakid! :D

    1. Use it for the bribery that'll have to be done to avoid repeats!

    2. Really cool PC with broadband connection and loadsa games.

    3. Fast car, driving lessons and insurance.

    4. 68,965 Magnum Gluttony ice creams!

    5. TKD club drinking session in Galway after the Connacht Open!

    take your pick.
