The Poojer Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 :lol: I would hire my family and very best friends. Some would fix up inner city houses. Others would over see the charity of their choice. They all would have high expectations, but be very well compensated. And I would travel, travel, and then do some more traveling
Nanker Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 I would use the money to mess with people...make them lose their dignity in exchange for amounts of money that they can't pass up in good conscience. . or so. .
ExiledInIllinois Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 I'd buy the Dolphins and run the team like Ralph. Better... Buy the Pats* and run them like the Sullivan's WITHOUT a bailout by Ralph and let history take its course.
Steely Dan Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 i would start my own restaurant/brewery/artisan foodshop, in a some awesome location and do things 'my way' all the while trying to satisfy the customers....but i would have the freedom to tell them to f*** off if i didn't agree with them....god i would love that......the restaurant part, not the arguing with the customer part.....i think i would also try and rent Sandra Bullock, Gwen Stefani among others to spend time with me..... Anyone who's ever worked retail, IMO, would love to have the authority to tell people to go themselves.
billsfan89 Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 I would start an indy film production company try and make original movies written by people who cool new ideas instead of making sequels or rehashes of old movies (Was there really a need for a Karate Kid movie?). All in all there needs to be much more originality in the world and if I could help a few cool ideas for movies get made and make peoples dreams come true I would be very happy to do that.
The Poojer Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 and i have been in retail for a long time...that said, the customers are what make us better, its just every once in a while a customer just ruins it for everyone....customer service is uber important to me, i just ask that you be a somewhat intelligent customer Anyone who's ever worked retail, IMO, would love to have the authority to tell people to go themselves.
Quester74 Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 I'd wake up every morning, roll over and ask my wife, "So hun, whatcha wanna do TODAY." -and know that anything was possible. Of course, the very first thing I'd do, is tell my Dad he didn't have to work anymore. God, that'd be awesome. On a time-sync <sp?> sorta thing though.. I'd love to build a really nice garage, and restore old cars. (I know nothing of cars, for the most part.. but, what a great way to learn.)
mead107 Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 Build a wine cellar and then travel all over with the wife and send wine back to the house for the wine cellar.
Chef Jim Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 Build a wine cellar and then travel all over with the wife and send wine back to the house for the wine cellar. And while you're doing that you can hire me to "manage" your wine cellar.
Just Jack Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 And while you're doing that you can hire me to "manage" taste test your wine cellar. fixed
BuffaloBud Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 Eat and drink my way around the world while checking out all the big time sporting events. Maybe sponsor a sports team. Build my self a kick butt golf course. And work for a charity - Livestrong.
Chef Jim Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 fixed That is why I put manage in quotes. BTW Meade, you need to read The Vintage Caper by Peter Mayle.
Mr. Dink Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 Ok then I'd buy the Bills, be a ghost owner and then move them to LA just to piss everyone off. Bwhahahahahahahah!!
mead107 Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 That is why I put manage in quotes. BTW Meade, you need to read The Vintage Caper by Peter Mayle. I will give it a shot.
Chef Jim Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 Actually I'd really want to do it just to piss you off.
HopsGuy Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 I don't know what I'd do with that much money, but it would probably involve lots of gold plated guns and exotic wildlife.
Chalkie Gerzowski Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 Time = Money Buy the Bills and work out a lease with the county for a 15-year extension on the stadium.
shrader Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 I'd be playing hockey and/or golf every single day of the year. The rink would definitely be one I own and I'm sure it would be the practice facility used by the Sabres since I would have already bought them from Golisano. That golf would be completely random, which ever course I felt like playing that day.
stuckincincy Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 I'd build a secure underground bunker in deep, deep Appalachia, with a charming surface domicile.
