Title: If you had $1,000,000.00
Post by: browning on February 20, 2011, 02:59:02 PM
I was driving today and heard the song If I Had $1,000,000.00 by Barenaked Ladies.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHacDYj8KZM (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHacDYj8KZM)

It made me think, what kind of things would you buy or what would you do with it? 

I'd probably upgrade my ride  :bike2: , make some donations, and of couse, increase my turkey hunting supplies.   :smiley-char092:

Before I do anything with the money, I'm putting in my 2 weeks notice, filing for ss, and I'm one happy camper.

Buy land, because there isn't any more of it being made! That would also give myself, relatives, and friends some places to hunt on!

I'd have an unlisted number, and probably find out I had cousins, brothers and sisters I never knew about.   :TrainWreck1:

I'd drive my company car from Alabama to California, making several stops along the way telling certain people to kiss ole Harry.  Once in California I'd go to the airport and get me a plane ticket back home, leaving the car.  Then I'd wait about a month and call my Boss and tell him where his company car is at.   After that I'm not sure what I'd do, but it would be fun.

2.  Buy a farm in northern missouri as close to iowa as I can.

3.  Build a lodge type house

Tithe
Buy some land and build a house with all the little bells and whistles my wife would love to have.
Invest for my kids college and weddings.
Buy some equipment to be able to mill my own lumber and upgrade my shop equipment to be able to quit my day job and make calls and such for a living.

In the meantime, I'll just try to remember to thank God for my daily blessings and the health of my family... no amount of money can buy that.

After President Osama got done taking his cut and FICA got their cut, I would spend what's left on a big meal from the McDonald's value menu on dinner from the family.

It's only money. There are people who have millions of dollars, and have no life. There are people who have millions, and have no friends. No sir, money isn't everything.. Now excuse me while I dive into this dumpster for some lunch..Mike
