You win the $70mil Powerball tonight...what do you do with it?

[adamkungl]

I'd buy Souffs and purposely bomb. Continue funding them so they're financially viable but refuse to sign any good players or coach.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Blackjack and hookers.

 

[Cowboy_4_Life]

Use it as a deposit on a boat

 

[muzby]

put it all on black.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

I'd have large breasted blonde women slave on me all day in my massive mansion

 

[bartman]

Invest $2mil in a term deposit at 5% p.a. - that gives $100,000 per year to live on.

Buy a house, car etc - probably looking at another $2mil in Sydney, by the time you kit it out with all the mod cons (when money is no object).

$66mil left... set up a few charities, $20mil for each will generate $1mil per year (using the same 5% p.a. term deposit rate). Make sure the money is directed to causes that make a positive difference, and be actively involved in monitoring them.

Sit back and use the rest of the time to write books, compose songs, travel, do paintings, whatever... without having to work for any other merkin for the rest of my years.

The correct answer is:

(1) buy a small island;

(2) kidnap Matthew and Andrew Johns and have them reenact the film "Saw" without special effects;

(3) buy the Canterbury Bulldogs, change their name and logo to the "Not So Quiet Rioters" and sell them off to an Arab prince.

Where are you getting 5% in a term deposit? 3-3.5% is all you will get. Take out 2% inflation and you are really only making 1% return on investment. Take out tax it's even less.

 

[Drew-Sta]

CH is right, you know...

 

[HowHigh]

Buy 70 mil worth of lotto tickets

 

[nick87]

I'd buy houses in:

Canberra
Sydney
Paris
Munich
New York
Rome
South of France
Nice
Philadelphia
Rio
BA

That's probably 30 mil worth
I'd pay off my sisters home, my parents home, and buy the sister in law a house
Call that's 2 mil

Up to 32mil

I'd put 5mil each in a trust fund for each of my two kids.
42mil

I'd go on an all expenses holiday to Bora Bora where I got married, with a nanny and the kids, then off around the world, Including a month with my mates hitting up a shit load of NFL and NBA boxes, let's call that a 3 million dollar trip. 45m

I'd buy a few race horses for fun. Let's round it up to 50mil

I'd donate a large stack of money to child protection charity's, probably 5mil

And I'd live off the rest along with income from me and my wife's job

Well that's shitty... only space to run one charity then!

 

[Wizardman]

I'd employ David Bowie to do "Labyrinth 2"

 

[Misanthrope]

Pay off my debts. Pay off my parents' home loan. Pay of my siblings debts.

Give a million each to my siblings. Five million to my parents.

Travel for the rest of my life.

:lol:

At least we agree on one movie.

I'd buy houses in:

Canberra
Sydney
Paris
Munich
New York
Rome
South of France
Nice
Philadelphia
Rio
BA

One of these things is not like the others :sarcasm:

Replace blonde with redhead and large breasted with 'C Cups' and you're speaking my language.

:lol: You vindictive son of a bitch.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

buy 2 investment properties and a decent pad for myself, wipe out my folks and brothers mortgages. Get some nice wheels and update my toys, gadgets, wardrobe etc.

Few things on my bucket list involve me being in better shape then i currently am. Probably get me knees fixed and find a spot in some tropical paradise somewhere that has rehab, physio etc. Once im back on my feet, drop 15 or so kg and get the fitness up good enough to hit base camp at everest, inca trail etc and continue wondering around the rest of the globe i havent seen yet.

After about 12 months ill start worrying about the rest of my life, probably buy some land in the small town my partners from in NZ and share my time between mine and her families.

Would still have around 30 mil in the bank if i splurged pretty hard, could easily live off the interest and investment property income. Couldn't not work because i'd die of boredom, maybe turn my land into an animal shelter, havent been the same since i lost my dog.

 

[LESStar58]

Buy my own bar. Basically, my own little piece of Texas in Melbourne. have CDs in the jukebox that I would listen to and only have rugby league on the big screen. Have two step lessons and bands.

 

[thorson1987]

Buy the Dragons and relocate them to Perth or Hobart.

Then probably just chill with the other $69m in the bank.

 

[FiTzHaNrY_FaN]

i wood buy fitzy

You'd need to buy CUB beforehand, and guarantee Peter Doust a lifetime supply of Crown Lager. If you can, the club is yours.
