"Excuse me sir, did you mean 10 million spicy chicken nuggets, or 10 million 5 piece spicy chicken nuggets? oh, so 50 million spicy chicken nuggets then. Second window please."
This would be worth it just to see the expression on the guy stuck behind you in the drive through.
Good one. I'd probably get some more education with the $1mln of spending money. :think: Possible degrees...
theology
philosophy
history
economics
physics

If you do not plan on being a part of academia, then getting a degree in the humanities is largely a waste. You can teach yourself faster and better on your own.
But you don't get a shiny diploma that way. :chuckle:

There are easier ways to get a job at McDonald's.
Bring on the cocaine and hookers!
Just kidding.
First I'd pay off my debts and my parents' debts. Then I'd renovate my folks house, or buy them a new one.
Then comes finishing my education. Finishing building a sweet hot rod out of my Bug. Going on a shopping spree at Moog and Doepfer. Having E. F. Keebler custom build me a violin.
Then I can live out my dream of being both a school teacher and a rock star.

So, the correct answer (and write this down, I saw alot of people get it wrong) is you would invest the entire amount in a safe manner that would yield interest.
SAVE enough of that interest and add it to the Principal at a rate that will keep you up with inflation.
Then, go do XYZ with your 3 hundred thousand a year or whatever you have after the tax man gets ya.

I'd probably spend a decent amount of it. I'd get myself a Gallardo, all the music equipment I've been saving up for and a house I can call my own. After that though, I'd use the money to invest, as well as funding my business's development. Of course I'd love to donate to charity, but I'd like to earn more so I could donate more.
:think:Nah, that would be too gaudy and ostentatious....
It would have an olive oil import company as it's front. Word would get around.

Since I am an elderly dudette, could you enlighten me, what is a Gallardo?
I am investing ... and that gets pretty scary at times... especially since I am retired. Been through some times when big losses were seen ... with gradual recouping ... but then down again. I'm beginning to lose some of my long term trust in the US economy... and how secure is a paper dollar anyway... or investment accounts full of numbers that almost seem imaginary instead of real?
Can't think of anything better to do ... not sure that investing in gold is really the way to go. Gold is only worth something when other people can afford to buy it ... right? If things go south ... then so would gold... right?
Getting out of all debt ... having stores of supplies, and if I were young to work a farm, then owning property to cultivate might be beneficial.
Boy this post makes it hard for me to play make believe about $10,000,000.

'Did you hear about Benny?'
'No, what happened to him?'

I'd buy a nice little house and build a new computer every week until I ran out of money. I'd probably send some Knight's way, too.
