If you had $1,000,000...

If you had $1,000,000, what would you do with it? (my thread for everyone to dream a little )

[2moretrees]

to answer my own question, I probably wouldn't change a whole lot. I would pay of all the medical bills I have and then I would take a nice vacation to some tropical island (I have to have a little fun), and would save the rest so I could continue to take my tropical vacations each and every year. I would also set up a charitible foundation of some type. I guess all I need now is to win the lottery.

I would pay off my debts and home mortgage. Then what was left over 1/2 into safe investments and the other 1/2 into stocks. I might splurge and get myself a new car

If I had a million dollars, I would sell my current house and buy a larger one. We are debating right now to move or to do an addition. I would live in the house mortgage free. Probably $300,000 or so.

I would also give each one of my boys $100,000

The rest 400,000 would be invested 1/2 would be invested for growth and the other half for income so DH wouldnt have to work full time.

Aah to dream

[rabbitfoot]

I would have one hell of a party

[nate]

I'd be at that party..!

[rabbitfoot]

I'll be sure to send you an invitation You might have a long wait though

[Tree0164]

Please send me the invite as well!!

Me 3!

Actually if i had 1 million I would put half away, buy myself a nice new shiney car and use the rest to start a business. I've always wanted to start a pet "stay and play".. Owners drop off their dogs like they would drop off their kids at daycare. We of course would give them excersize, feed them, let them play, etc. LOT better than keeping your dog at home all day by itself.

When I was working there was a doggie daycare in downtown Boston. Interesting.

I was hoping to find a link to it but found this one in Orlando http://www.dogdayafternoon.net/index.html

People love to pamper their pets.

[rabbitfoot]

It looks like it is going to be one big bash! Now all I have to do is come up with the million

[terry1156]

Please add me to the party list. Formal or casual? Has the site been designated yet? Can I bring friends along?

[2moretrees]

Don't forget me when the invitations go out!

[rabbitfoot]

I can see we are getting a little ahead of ourselves, but since we are in the dream stage still, I guess a little planning is in order. It will be casual - come as you like. Any good suggestions on where it can be held will be considered. I am fond of the beach and mountains. Friends are more than welcome

[2moretrees]

My vote is for the beach

[rabbitfoot]

A BBQ on the beach, maybe a little night sailing. Now I just need that Million!

[emily1067]

I'd buy a new car! One the doesn't have 200,000 miles on it like mine does...

I'd buy my parents a new home, and pay off everything we owe. I'm not sure what I'd do with the rest

[Ima saver]

I would pay off my two debts, car and land and put the rest in the bank to earn interest. I would love to earn enough interest just to live on, so my husband did not have to work 7 days a week.

[PrincessPerky]

Pay off car and house, donate 10% to church (to be official .) And then ..... err umm dunno?

But can I get an invite to that party?
