I would move to LA. There's an ITT Tech near LA so I could finish school. When I graduated I would probably just live in a modest apartment and write movies. I guess I'd have to give my mom some money. She's good with guilt trips. Laughing

Hmm...if I could stop myself from spending it all on cars, women and more cars, I'd fulfill my dream, and start my very own comics distribution company, enabling me to publish my own comics. After the firm gets big enough, I'd buy a TV station and give Joss as many shows as he wants for as long as he wants...

With what's left over (AKA nothing, but let's pretend...) I'd buy the Bamobile!!! Cool

purple monkey dishwasher!!! Very Happy

I'd probably pay off my student loans, buy an abode, and fund my next film properly...

Or invest to turn it into ~$80 mil, and get us a season six... Rolling Eyes

A million dollars really isn't enough for what I want to do. I want to build an allergy-free house for my parents, my brother, and myself. I could easily spend $1 mil or more a pop on those. Especially since my parents' house would have to be built wheelchair-accessible in case my mom eventually ends up in a chair (she has Multiple Sclerosis, but so far has managed to remain perambulatory).

Assuming we all won a chance to be on "Extreme Home Makeover" (well OK, technically only my parents would qualify since you have to own a home to begin with to get on that show, but since we're already in fantasyland...) and the house thing was taken care of, and that I'm not supposed to do something sensible with the money, like investing it and living off the interest (pshaw, this is fantasyland! who wants to be sensible in fantasyland???) with my $1 mil, I would:

I could easily spend a few thousand on books (and the bookcases to hold them). Buy Narsil, Glamdring, and Hadhafang. (FYI, these are Lord of the Rings replica swords). OK, that's about $1000 more down.

Gee, this is going to be slow at the rate I'm going...OK, I need some big ticket items...how about a home theater system, and a bunch of DVDs. And a bunch of climbing gear (see, my Extreme Home Makeover included a personal gym complete with 3 story climbing wall Wink ).

I'd buy my brother a blue Dodge Ram with "Tonka" detailed on the back hatch (and pay off the company for use of their trademark, of course). And a new car for my mom. Aw, heck, even though I like my car, I could get a jeep to go with it, too.

Oh yeah, and I'd pay to put myself through college without having to work.

Um, yeah, I think that about takes care of it. If I had anything left over, I'd buy myself a soft serve sorbet. A big one. With sprinkles. Yep.

Starfury made a good point; a million dollars at one shot is a good piece of change, and soemone who's more or less getting by already could easily apply it and have a very secure life in the future, but it's not enough with today's prices to fulfill any truly amazing fnatasies. (Altho indulging oneself in reevenge on the "road hogs" all WC Fields in _IF I HAd a Million_ appeals to my vigilante aspects.)

My original answer to quit my job, stays. No more PKI would make me the happiest Vampire Lady ever. After no more PKI, I'd give some money to the camp I work at cause I love that place and we're having some financial issues right now. I'd also pay back my parents, buy myself the jeep I've always wanted, then go and splurge on a bunch of Buffy and Angel stuff. Plus a working DVD player for my room. I'd buy myself some new Saxophones and a bunch of stuff that I need to keep everything in tip-top shape (reed knives, swabs, reeds, ligatures, mouthpieces, stuff like that). After all that, I'd just slowly waste it all away, I still do have expenses so I'm gonna keep some so I don't have to worry about getting a job for a long long time... like after college when I (hopefully) become a high school band director. And by that time I'll still have plenty left and not have to worry about much and just enjoy life. Very Happy

If I had a million dollars...

I'd go on a shopping spree in Beverly Hills and buy like 100 pair of PINK STRIPEY TUBE SOX and give them all away to people....then I'd like buy 100 cheesecakes and smash one on the windshield of this cop car who would be near buy sitting in his car eating donuts and drinking coffee...

And then he'd jump out the car and say:

"HEY LADY! You can't just go smashing cheesecakes on cops windshields!"

And I'd be all..

"WELL GO AHEAD AND ARREST ME OFFICER....(on second part let's scratch the part where the cop is male and make the cop female Twisted Evil)

*rewinds the scene and pops in Shannyn Sossamon in a police uniform*

So as I was saying... Laughing ....I'm all

"WELL GO AHEAD AND ARREST ME OFFICER...'CAUSE I'M LIKE A MILLIONAIRE AND STUFF. Cool " Laughing

And SHE'S all...

"Well okay...I didn't really wanna do this but..."

And then she puts me in handcuffs me and throws me in the backseat...and throws off her hat and then....*brakes screeching* Shocked

I think I'm gonna finish this story up in the GAY CLUB thread. Wink
What ya gonna do when ya get out of jail? I'm gonna go to CHURCH!!! Surprised
