You Win £999 Billion Trillion - What Would You Do With It?

[joko]

If you won a ridiculous amount of money - as above - what would you do with it?

Lets assume that -
we would all look after and help out our family and close friends,
we would all donate some i'm sure
we would all move to a bigger house, get a better car and generally just have things that cost more etc
and go on nicer holidays
These things are pretty much the basics and standard stuff really

but what else would you do with it?

start a collection of purple rolls royces?
sail the world in a gold plated yacht?
buy a country?
have a wedding on top of a mountain?
would you buy a huge well known company?
or start one from scratch - like batman?
put money into a massive marine biology expedition to find nessie?
clone people, and make loads of yourself?
collect rare first editions?
go to the moon?
buy the moon?! haha

basically you can do anything you want - and even if something is not currently possible, you could fund research to make it possible.

doesn't have to be anything weird or extravagant, just your dreams

i would definitely think about time travel ... and real travel

i would also fund research for doctors to be able to do skeleton transplants - i would like my whole skeleton replaced - either with real bone or a terminator type thing haha

cheers

Buy up all the car parks in Britain (including hospitals) and let people have free parking

The world currently has maybe £50 trillion total so with that kind of money you should be able to cancel all world debt and fund all sorts of social and food programmes for centuries. I'd look into funding for nuclear fusion, an injection of trillions of dollars would probably give the boost it needed, so there's a good chance that it could help to sort out our energy problems too.

I would build an observatory here on earth and one in space. I'd probably buy an island to do that on.
I would go to University and study mathematics, physics, astrophysics and engineering.
I would train to be a silversmith, a glass maker and a potter.
I would collect old Morris cars. I love them. My "day" car would be a Morris Million.
I would buy where I work and give it to the workers.
I would fund grown up apprenticeships for older people who want to retrain but can't afford to.
I'd be drunk a lot :))

The first thing I would do is offer a huge sum to anyone who will design a sexy but truly comfortable bra.....one that you wouldn't know you were wearing and didn't have flaming straps that wander all over your shoulders and arms.

I would fund an elite army to peacefully, overthrow, Kim Jong Ung and all his cohorts. Put them all on a little island somewhere where they could live long and happy lives together and free all I those poor people that are curently in his work camps.

Make friends with the West and make North Korea a wealthy and successful country, where democracy flourishes.

A phone that worked without switching off in mid-conversation about five times.

[Wharton]

I would give my 999 billion trillion close friends a pound each.

[askyourgran]

Please take Putin with them Chrissa.

[gness]

Used to have some of those, Scrivens...they don't last...☺

That's a good idea, Jim...;-)

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

I put that stuff under donate Jim, but yeah, I like your idea. :)

[jim360]

It is, isn't it gness? No idea why I thought of it mind.

Having had dealings with the most innovative cancer hospital in the UK (and even the world) I would just chuck the money their way so that they could use it in their research. That would be money well spent.

[Psybbo]

2S7SJ, I agree with you, my answer was a facetious post to put parking warden out of work

[chrissa1]

I would also include all the tin pot dictators in Africa as well, aog. Mugabe would be top of the list.

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

If it's Jimmy's 237SJ I'm chucking a good wodge of my money at them too

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

but that comes under donate

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

joko - Can I please request that your skeleton research tries to evolve some working wings for us.
I really would love that.

[237SJ]

Mojo - It`s the Royal Marsden but Jimmys do equally good work.
