Buy a house here in San Diego. Take a few trips. Donate the rest to help animals and conserve nature.

One million? Pay off loan, maybe study some more and get a degree in biology, set up trusts for niece and nephew.

Significantly more? Personal airship, Castle Wulfenbach-style.

Pay of the debts of everyone I knew.

Then I'd buy land - a couple of acres - and build my house, the guest house, the workshop for my crazy inventions and the getaway in the copse at the back of the land next to the stream. Landscaping, trees, maybe get some alpaca or something to roam around. Make it self efficient energy-wise.

I'd probably give 10-20k to charity.

See what my friends wanted, maybe throw them a party or buy a holiday.

I'd try and live off the rest for a bit (it'd probably last me a year), maybe start up a make-space.


I've costed this up.

If I had a million dollars I'd probably just buy a condo and a 240SX and work on it plus buy some gear to make some music.
