If yall had a billion dollars what would you do with it.?

Had I a billion dollars, I would pay off my debts and set up an educational fund for all my immediate family members who chose to pursue higher education. Next I would purchase a house that is environmentally friendly, spacious enough to support my basic lifestyle needs(located by a body of water), but small enough to be kept up by me. I would then purchase my favorite super sports car(probably a Bugatti) and outfit it with an environmentally friendly engine. I'd also purchase a private jet and helicopter for air travel(the most fuel efficient possible). I'd purchase an island home some where in the tropics, that could be let out when not in my use. I would then set up an investment fund with about $100 million and set up an expense account from which a fixed allowance would be drawn from by me monthly to cover my living expenses for the rest of my days(reviewed and adjusted annually for inflation). With the rest, I would follow in the footsteps of Bill Gates(founder of Microsoft) and his wife Melinda. Bill and Melinda have committed themselves to giving away all of their wealth($27 billion), before they die. They currently work to improve educational standards throughout the U.S through grants to high schools and public libraries. Malaria kills 2,000 African children every day. HIV kills over 3 million people every year. Most of these people are in third world countries. Globally they provide more than a third of the worlds entire malaria-research funding and provide untold amounts of money towards the research and development of a cure for HIV. Guided by the belief that every life has equal value, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation works to reduce inequities and improve lives around the world by making current medical advancements available to all in the third world. Remember, we too could have been born into some of these desperate and dire circumstances, it's nice to know that someone cares and is willing and able to take action.

Top 3 Answerer in Business & Finance. (Vote for me)

I'd buy my own island

BUY A HOUSE, 2 CARS, GiVE SOME TO MY PARENTS AND FRiENDS, SHOPPiNG SPREE AND LiVE COMFORTABLY FOREVER. OH, AND ALSO GiVE SOME TO CHARiTY.

i would buy everything and would rub it in everyones faces

A billion? Wow. First I would buy a house for my parents, one for my grandparents, and one for myself. Then, I'd buy a football team. I would start an animal rescue service and I would definitely donate over half of it all to charity, probably to children's hospitals, disease research, and for abused children.

Are you offering? Thank you very much! ;-) I'd take care of family and friends, whack loads to various charities and then spend some on travelling and paying for tuition on various subjects I'd wish to learn.

If I had 1 Billion dollars I would put in a high yield savings account and live off the intrest. I would give all my family members 2 million dollars. Then I would buy 3 I slands, Neverland.

Pay off all debts, buy a house in a low cost of living region, and invest in a well diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds, and gold.

I would not go to work when I felt like it. Not be a salve to job.I would spend more time doing the Lord work at the temple you know doing the saving work for the dead that hay can not do for them self at the L.D.S. temple!I would help other people that nead my help. not gove them mone but help them two find there way in life.
