What if I killed Frook first?

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.


Yes no Killing of my Frookie please! AIJ I think you would have to be the main fighting half of the ninja death pair atm. I could stand on the sidelines and poke people with my crutches though!

If I had a million dollars I would probably start off spending it unwisely on frivolous things, but I'd hope that eventually I'd settle down and put it to good use. I would probably give a decent portion of it away, and make sure that my dad was well taken care of. Although I must admit that bwgan's elephant idea is mighty intriguing,,,,I've always wanted a leopard myself! :D

A Leopard?

It'd freeze to death in the prairies...

Hood, no, I would never take over my beloved England, especially with the Welsh!! That would be exactly what they want! I think I wouldn't actually do anything with Wales, except post big billboards of my smug face, in the knowledge that the entirety of Wales was owned by an Englishman. :D

Right well I thought it was obvious but if I won a million dollars I would be getting the hell out of the prairies! I'd probably move back to Trinidad, the weather there would suit the leopard just fine! :D

Well I never ask why you want to do the things you do my dear! I know better than that by now! For the benefit of others who know you less well than myself though....why?

Okay...now remember you asked me. You could have resisted. You didn't have to ask. I didn't make you. You were under no duress.



*Cough*



Um :D










I don't want an elephant, I just wish I had enough money to buy one...boom, boom *ducks...very fast* :p

A million?
I'd do very little, rumour has it to lead a true millionaires liftstyle, you need 15/20 mil in the bank.

If I hit the euro millions rollover (100 million real money) I'd go fucking mental, give rents a few to keep them safe, buy a load of derelict houses, pay a few of my friends who are outa work to fix them.
spend 60 mil on making Gardens of the moon series, in the hope it'll catch and a further 9 seasons follow.

1 million dollars, that's like... 37 euro and five cents, right? :D

I think with 5 million and a four percentage rate of return on investments, you could live comfortably without ever having to work as well as buy a few places around the world to get a change of scenery every now and then. Wouldn't live the high rollers life, but wouldn't mind that either.

With one million, I'd probably invest in property.

I could try buy part of zimbabwe...harsh joke aside I could help a ton a people that way. possibly wait for Mugabe to off it then invest. the chance of rising from rock bottom is a certainty and I could build an empire overnight. job creation would definately pay itself back and I could realistically use my near criminal stock returns to buy mining rights in Zim and earn enough clout to position my a kid or grand kid into political power. then malawi...and so on and so on till I die.

I think I would be really boring, put it in the bank, carry on more-or-less as normal but more comfortably!

I'm disappointed in myself.

If I won one of the crazy lotteries, I would fund my own research .... and the ultimate goal of my own research would be some form of world domination through evil science.
