    find people to make a good green lantern movie(with DC permission of course)
    attempt to get marvel away from disney

    I assume we're talking about being the Bill Gates $80,000,000,000 kind of rich.

    I would commission the building of a small mansion, equipped with multiple backup generators and a nice waste disposal system. I would invite various friends and family to come and live with me. They would all get their own rooms, and we would share spacious areas such as living rooms and a kitchen. In my room, I would have a nice TV, an awesome desktop computer, an Xbox, plenty of bookshelves for my other stuff and finally a nice bed. One living room would have a pool table, another would have a television set with video games, and all would have nice couches and chairs to relax in. The kitchen would have an island, plenty of space, and everything a chef could want. The would be an indoor workout room, an indoor swimming pool and a deck outside with a nice view. The entire house would have plenty of natural lightning. I would work as an author and try to get my fantasy novels published under a pen-name.

    I would also donate to charities for research to find cures for diseases.

    Eh, I'm more of a R32 person, and speaking of I'll add that to the list too as well as a super minimal (but nice) 180SX, dunno how I forgot that tbh.

    I'd also go to some of the most beautiful places on earth, I'd go scuba diving, and go exploring in crystal caves

    I would love to go joyriding in a Saleen S7, but that car was around $543k last I looked. I'd rather have a nice SUV (Yukon XL, 2004?) outfitted with a badass stereo system.

    For all my brother has done, I'd like to get him his own place.

    I want to take a trip around to several parts of the world where I have friends. Heh, traveling the world.

    Nah but seriously, I'd just live a normal life in a nice house just without the fear of bills and other things like that weighing me down. If I was going to spoil myself, I'd visit Universal Studios every year.

    If I were rich, what would I buy...?

    ...Nothing, I think I'd give everything I had to a charity or something. Save maybe about 2-3 thousand dollars for my own purposes.

    Money corrupts, I'd rather not have anything to do with it.


    Or just use whatever I could and go to every country in the world. I bet it'd be a nice experience.

    You people have no perspective. I would buy a gallon of chocolate pudding everyday and drink it out of a milk jug. That's about it.

    If I had infinite monies, I would build a tower with a huge library and observatory built into it and live there. I'd also finance an advanced research facility on the moon. And find a way to get to Equestria or create some sort of equivalent, like a Holo-deck from Star Trek.

    Oh yeah, and I'd try to cure cancer or something like that as well. :derpe:

    It is safe to assume my atoms are neatly arranged
    Well, concidering I had infinite money, I would do this:

    -Buy my way into politics. Pay Lobbyists insane amounts of money to pass laws I want.
    -Become President of the United States, or at least hold a high-office job in the government somewhere.
    -IMPORTANT: Buy Body-Guards to make sure I never get assassinated.
    -Use my money to bring all the freaking troops homes. I think 10 years of war is long enough.
    -Invest billions of dollars into our energy infrastructure. Turn the entire country into a green-energy powerhouse (the ultimate goal being to have solar panels on the White House).
    -Create a better health care plan, preferablly one that does not force the working class to get taxed to death.
    -Improve education and teach kids REAL history (like how the native americans were slaughtered)
    -Fix the economy. This is easy actually, because if you stop the war, suddenly you have billions of dollars left over to spend.
    -Decrease crime rates. If you fix the economy, people have no need to rob each other. Thus, lower crime rates.
    -Ban artificial foods and drugs. These things decrease our health, not improve it.
    -Support alternative medicines and therapy. This stuff actually freaking works! (E.g: Did you know that you can cure cancer by putting yourself on a whole foods, plant-based diet?)

    By now, you're most likley thinking "lulbro, you're too nice."

    Ok, so maybe I'll buy myself a 2-story house. That's all I need, because my kids don't need an inflated ego.

    I don't know if this has been said yet and I'm too lazy to check, but with infinite money, the very first thing I would do would be to buy all the tickets to a concert or sports game, so that they'll have all those elaborate decorations and special effects and all that for one person.
    Next, I would buy every single major landmark I could just so I could have even more money and no one else could profit off it
    Next, I would build a mile-tall building in the center of the metroplex that I live in, why you ask? Why not?
    Then, I would go crazy and die a happy man.

    For my personal use, I would buy a good house, a good car with a good driver, probably a personal helicopter or a plane(though i am afraid to fly), all video game platforms in the world(and games, all games in the world, yes), a library, that would contain all good books in the world, a сoncert hall, where can i listen to live perfomances of different cool musicians and recording studio, because i like voice acting.

    Besides buying something, i would also:

    For my personal use and for other people, i would build alot of Buddhist Temples around the world. And mainly in those countries that have lack of them. I would also give some money to those people, who want to build temples related to other peaceful relegions.

    For other people, i would give alot of money for charity. And talking about charity, i would open Centers of Magical help for people who are victims of black magic and paranormal. And those centers would be fair and good and would really help people.

    @Mr. Serious: Please run in 2016 or whenever you are old enough, you got at least one vote, from Oklahoma of all places.

    OT: If I have about $8,000,000, I would buy a $2,000,000 home in Seattle. Buy 3 cars: A Mitsubishi Lancer Evo, A Volkswagon Jetta, and A Ferrari (Japan, Germany, and Italy, the three main Axis Countries of WWII, lol). Buy a bunch of merchandise of different hobbies of mine and make it each rooms theme (an anime room, a MLP room, a Pokemon room, a Music room w/ studio, etc.) I would buy new equipment and gadgets (I cool iPod Touch 6 and the iPhone 6 (when they come out), and a few, state-of-the-line computers. Buy some MLP and rock clothes as well as other brands. Donate some cash to charities and my favorite sites like EP. And the remaining $750,000 will go to my health & education. I hope to be a Psychologist, and a good one so that will take care off tuition, books, and other stuff at WSU.
