What would you do.....

If you won 1 million dollars but only had a month to live? I was thinking about this today, I don't know why. I guess cause I'm bored and I think of off the wall stuff when I'm bored.

Anyway I would go buy me a McClaren F1 and go have some fun with it, go skydiving, travel to Austrailia, England, Hawaii, Italy, and give some money to some children charadies. So what would you guys do?

i don't know how you'd do all that stuff, seeing that the mclaren would take up all of that $1 mill if i'm not mistaken. Now if the question was what could you do with 10 million dollars....

lol hun that's what happens when you buy a car that is handcrafted and takes forever to make

me and a few friends discussed what we would do if one of us wins a million bucks. since theres only 4 of us we're good to go
buy everyone out of the 4 of us a crotch rocket
a house on the beach
I'd completely fix up my car (h22 turbo blah blah)
then put the remaining 600k in the bank for my future

I'd buy as much life insurance as I could, buy a shitload of payable-upon-death annuities (family as benefactors), and spend every day with someone I loved.

If you want a fast, nice, hand crafted car for under a mil... go with a Saleen S7. 475,000. Still alot, but you could afford one! Then use the other 500k to get insurance for that one month you're alive

I would donate $100 grand to my autocross club to repave our site, throw a HUGE party, travel, give money to my friends and family, then die knowing that I helped make my friends and family happy.

Give most of it to my family so they can all live happy..and secure. The rest I would give to the fire fighters burn unit.
I mean really...I'm going to die..so I'll enjoy some..but I would rather someone enjoy it for more then a month..
