What would you do with half a mil?
 

What would you do if you got a half a million $? In (quickly depreciating) U.S. Dollars.

sorry, should be Off-Topic...

you first

Buy half a mil of gold and call it a day.

Yeah OT would be the place for this.

Thrlls, you on the road yet? I saw a woody sticker at the "Checkers" in Mililani the other day under the woody emblem it said "MR HORSEPOWER" it was $7.85 so you could buy like 60,000woody stickers if you had the half mil.

Yep I finally got the car on the road.
I had to adjust the valves, but did not have the time or energy so I had C. Wong at European Auto Specialist do it today. The car runs great now and I'm trying to enjoy it as much as possible.

Saw pics of your car and others on the Kole kole pass drive. I wanted to attend, but my car was not finished and I was at church.

Must go to checkers and get some horsepower stickers for the woody now! :D
Hmmm...that didn't sound right. More like get some woody stickers for horsepower!

finish my 70 911E, a share of Berkshire Hathaway type A stock, a cottage on the Columbia river in Vancouver, WA

$500k? Get a CGT! Nah, get some appreciating assets. Gold is good or watch the market for some steals on real estate.

More real estate.

:P I would give a lot of it away and pray for the IRS to be kind.

I'd save/invest most of it and a small chunk of it might go to a bare metal respray and a tranny (915) refresh.

You could convert to Aussie and buy 42 Snap On torque wrenches...at $12,445.07 each!!!

pay off debt, buy a 993 and open my own public accounting office.

oh, would also open a food franchise nearby.

Put it with my other 1/2 mill

I would buy 100 of these torque wrenches in the states and fly to Australia and sell them for $10k Au and more than double your money!!!

Buy a gift card at Walmart.

Two chicks at once

Pay off my student loans and all other debt.

I'd take what was left and put 1/2 into foreign investment securities and the other 1/2 to tell my boss to "take this job and shove it" and go open my own office.

I think if I were a millionaire I could hook that up, too; 'cause chicks dig dudes with money.

Well, not all chicks.

Well, the type of chicks that'd double up on a dude like me do.

I think that's my favorite quote from that movie.
