Look what happens when people die and there is a will left,,families are destroyed over money and what is supposedly left to others.

The wife and played this out one day and we came to the conclusion that we would do things without others knowing about it...i.e. paying off family mortgages, cars, without them knowing about it. We would of course give 50% to those places that help others,,giving back is what keeps you grounded. We would keep back $1,000,000 for us and spend the rest on making other lives better. There is a ton of things you can do to make life better for those who don't have as much. This would be so much better than buying airplanes, mansions, cars and other things that will never fill the whole in your life.

How are you going to live the lifestyle of an eccentric Super Multi Billionaire?
After the above which is clearly very important, spend the rest of my life traveling the United States, feeding it. After all have had a full stomach and no more hunger for a long time, then focus on the rest of the world.

That should keep me busy until the day I die.

Pay all my bills... buy my wife a Dodge Charger, buy a Rolls Royce Phantom drophead Coupe, buy a nice house, and then deposit the rest around the world in interest bearing accounts.

Oh I though of a couple more. I want my hip joints replaced with ball barrings, an air ride suspension to replace the disks in my back, and a by pass valve installed before my stomach, so I can decide what my body will digest and if I decide to fill up on McRibs sandwiches or a pound of foie gras I wouldn't have to worry, about buying new pants every 2 weeks

Buy my way into the white house and fire everyone.
Buy the Budweiser factory and shut it down.
Build a log cabin manson in Colorado and shoot anything that comes within half a mile of my cabin.
Fly all of CA to said cabin where I will have Carlos Fuente and his rolling team making footballs for everyone.

OH! Almost forgot, buy a buffalo and name it skittles...Why? Because I can dammit!

Better yet, buy every company that advertises at Puff and make him go broke.

Pay off my debt, but myself a moderate sized house on a decent amount of land (read 3000sqf on 5-10 acres), put enough away to pay all my major expenses for life, and donate the rest to someplace.

Then I'd continue working part time or at whatever job I really enjoy.

I would probably blow all the money on cigars, hookers & booze. :-)
