Rich enough at least.


If I had a winning lottery ticket for that amount or more, I think I'd faint from excitement.

Then buy a bar. And invite you to it.


Actually, if I had the money, I'd start my own horticulture/landscaping business. Oh the toys/tools I could buy. The sweetest tractors you can find. With beer fridges. Oh yes.

Buy a chunk of land. Build a log cabin on it. I grew up in a log cabin. I miss hearing the house creak and groan as the wood shifted.

Maybe a muscle car. '67 Chevy Impala?



Hire Frook to find every Malazan member and hug you. Then maybe kill you. That would be up to Frook.

I think I'd get a PhD in physics.

Would you buy our love too? Oh wait, we all love you anyways, you pantsless drunkard!

I'd probably throw up if I hit it big. Then pay off my student debt, put 75% in the bank, and give away the other 15%. (We're talking a million after taxes, right?)

Win! I am happy with this.

I'd buy myself a house, somewhere nice, and some toys (Quad, Jetski) etc. Then save the rest.

'Tell me, Tool, what dominates your thoughts?'
The Imass shrugged before replying. 'I think of Mafia, Adjunct.'
'Do all Imass think about Mafia?'
'No. Few think at all.'
'Why is that?'
The Imass leaned his head to one side and regarded her. 'Because, Adjunct, they are sheeple.'


Sometimes I wonder, "Why is that frisbee getting bigger?" ... and then it hits me.

I would honestly not know waht to do with it

I'd pay off my student loans, my parents' mortgage, all my relatives' education back in UA.
put the rest in a savings account. and go to law school.

Put every cent in a savings account. Use the interest to supplement by daily expenses.

Me and Tehol would form a killer ninja death pair and exact a fitting revenge.

I'd spend it on a robot arm...stuff this one in the cast, gotta go with the future.

But seriously, probably stick it in the bank. I'm a tad young to be using it now.

I'd buy York City FC. They're worth about that much. Or maybe buy the whole of Wales...

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

What on earth would you do with the whole of Wales? Sit around and plot a takeover of England that will never actually happen?

Btw that is awesome Illy haha I would rep you if I could.
