What would you do if you were a billionaire?

Buy off North Korea and use their special forces to invade & take over all the rep factories as well as the TDs then I will charge all of you double the current going rate to recover the Billion I invested there. :p

I would buy out every car dealership in Fort Smith, Arkansas (where I currently live) and consolidate them under Logan Auto Group. I would replace some key people because this is the industry I am in and I know some heavy hitters that are just collecting salaries. Then I would enjoy the profit of that and have a secure source of income for the next couple of generations for my family.

Next, I would build a nice 5 bedroom house on about 3 acres north of Dallas, Texas and a big shop to work on my cars and motorcycles.

I would give my fiance the wedding of her dreams and then we would run the business together.


Oh, and I would buy a couple of watches. lol.

Somthing like that :laugh:

But for a serious answer, I would buy up real estate (rental properties and commercial), invest in stocks/mutual funds, pay off debts, a few watches and some cars. I would also make sure my parents and brother were set. Finally, donate to charities and my community.

I would order 5,000 McHamburgers at the McDrive. Just for the insanity.

Hahaha very funny, I like it!! :)

One time a very wealthy friend & I went thru a Taco Bell drive thru to get some late night food for his drunken date because she kept asking for it.
She couldn't decide what she wanted, so after about 1 minute he told the attendant she wanted two of EVERYTHING possible on the menu, including the desserts....
She is the only one who ate any of it, and needless to say the majority of it was thrown away - but it sure gave us a good chuckle at the time! :)

1) id get some lipo surgury done because im sick of dieting.
2) id go get myself my grail watches and cars
3) id put my money in some interest earning stocks/bonds/IRA's...because with billions i can earn enough on interest to be able to live off the gains.

first thing would be to invest a large part of it into something that will allow my future generations to use it indefinitely. (around 500m)

I'd use the rest to first satisfy my materialistic needs, eg. house, car, clothes, etc. (50m)
Then I'd start some random little businesses that I've always wanted(10m)
and finally I'd take another 100m and put it into doing some sort of philanthropic venture.

The rest of the 360m would just go into financial investments and real estate investment until I need to cash it out to use later down the line.

This is a fantastic approach to being a billionaire :) Clearly you have thought this through once or twice before. The only other thing i could possibly add to this list is a month long all inclusive trip to Bora Bora or something similar.

Will do things that are meaningful for humanity not just for my ego...

I do appreciate The Gates Foundation for this purpose.

Something similar would make a lot of sense to me...

Bring a smile and hope to the sick or underprivileged children as no price ! and is the best feeling ever
