    i would buy a 30k car, modest, like sti or something i can keep stock but have fun in.
    put rest in account. quit 1 of my jobs, still work a full time job, jsut not care as much though. life would be alot better, no worries, just work, drive my nice car, go home....ect.. keep life simple, just not be as stressed.

    i would let it earn interest for a few years, then spend some ofthe interest.

    what would modest interest on 1mil be a month? 1k? 1.5k?somewhere around there

    having 1 mil would be aggravating though.

    1: too scared to spend it, because once its gone its gone, or cant earn as much interest.
    2: interest on it isnt much, enough to buy things, but thats all u would get every year...
    3:wouldnt want to risk stock market or something..
    4; investments (safe) take too long..

    it would probably jsut stress me out some more.

    i keep changin my mind..

    i came to the conclusion that it would be bad for me to have 1 mil, it would stress me out too much finding what to do with it.

    Should be able to atleast earn 5% APR in a online savings account. That would generate $4166 a month. Of course you would have to pay taxes on that. Should get around $2750 after taxes.

    If it was me I would invest it in mutuals funds. You should be able to get atleast a 10% return on those unless you know nothing and pick losers. But 10% should be the least. A lot of funds can generate up to 20-30%

    well then i would let it generate interest for next 5 years or so without touching much of it, then i would allow myself around 20k a year, and never touch the 1 mil.

    If u get 5% interest of one mill, your looking at 50K income per year, however uncle sam taxes it then u get what's left. I would invest it, reinvest half of the interest. Id neevr touch what i reinvested for a while. Work my job, pay off bills w/ the interst, chill out. Once i turned it into two mill, then thats' when id start having fun. 100K of extra income per year plus what im making now=all importatlanta bishes sippin on hatoraide when i pull up in my F430 or some shit lol

    i don't know why all you people would invest... your chances of dying or being sued are way more likely w/ that amount of money... i would spend the fuck out of it and enjoy life

    Which is fine if you like making someone else rich. Personally I'm sick of it. Even if all I could afford was to sit at home all day and watch TV (without money to go anywhere) for a couple yrs. I would still rather do that than go to work everyday.

    I would nenjoy life very much sir. But id still have wealth. I have an unbrella policy w/ 1mil in covg so if i get sued that gets sucked up first. And no one has to know that u have a mil sitting in an account unless you flaut it. Ill have a fun car (f430) and a daily (R32 w/ an HPA twin turbo kit) and a suv to haul shits in, or maybe a pick up or something. But i would buy all that with my interest. 100K per year is enough to live a nice life on, especially when you have full time job making what your wife will be on top of the "free" money

    if i had a million, i'd remember what it was that made me that million, and just keep repeating that.

    unless this is a GIVEN million, either way, regardless of how i'd got it, i'd pay off college, buy a house no more than 15% of the total amount i've recieved, work and figure out ways to make half of what's left make more money. putting the other half in an account.

    hmmm what to do with 1 mill.....

    buy 2 decent houses with nice garages.... so thats about 500 grand gone....

    invest 300k of it.

    buy a R32 (skyline not the v-dub trash), S15, GTi-R, and a NSX Zero. so i can have all my drivetrain layouts and mod them accordingly (150k thats being gernerous)

    travel the world and add a little bit to my weekly checks just for a little money spread out

    yeah thats about right

    well w/ 1 million dollars you can retire so what would be the point of investing it to wait to retire?

    I'd buy my momma car and spend the rest of the money on PCP! Naw really I would buy a $350k house cash, S550, Range Rover HSE, and put the rest in the bank. I would also keep working. No reason to stop.

    this is true to a point... but it comes out pretty quick that you have money... starts w/ family/friends and before you know it some distant family member is sueing you for making them eat dirt when you were a kid

    but ya i still would spend it... house, cars, vacations, money to family members... its only money. i have a good life now and it will just make it even better and when its gone it gone. its pointless to wait to live off the interest; and in reality that never happens... most people go right through their money. shit might as well you only live once :boobies: :idb:

    Well, i already own one. SO that leaves two to buy. Shouldnt top 300K b/c i don't throw money way. Id still have alot of wealth. If you have 200K of income. Half from investments, half from working a 9-5, you can do alot of things. Id have my R32, and my F430. Id likely open some sort of franchise business after a few years. You have to think big to do big things. It does take money to make money, but if your smart, it doesnt take millions to make millions.

    If you do not invest that money in a no penalty money market account you cannot retire with a Million bucks. Unless you are old and shit..

    But give 1 mill to someone in the 20's and if they are not smart.. They will be back at a regular job in 2 to 3 years. or less.

    I would be a VW R32 and put an eip tuning twin turbo kit on it just for the VW haters. Then do 0-60 in 3.2 seconds.

    Then invest the rest.

    No it's not a worthless cause, it's just the parts you buy seem hella expensive.

    they are hella expensive, but then again when people have rare parts people want, they can name their price and wait for idiots like me to spend the money on it cause i'm willing to pay that price
