Mo' Money?
Suppose you came into posession of a large sum of money, by any means, such as winning the lottery, an inheritance, or moderating an online forum, what would your first transaction be?
I would get a haircut.

Re: Mo' Money?
Something totally ridiculous that i would never be able to do without a large sum of cash.
Like have a pony delivered to someones front door.

Re: Mo' Money?
Depending on the sum of money I would treat myself to something I couldn't normally afford to splurge on and then mull over what the do with the rest i.e. dinner in a posh restaraunt (prob looking after my family and friends with some..)

Re: Mo' Money?
I'd do the sensible stuff like pay off debts as a priority but the first thing I'd physically do would be go and get exceedingly drunk.

Re: Mo' Money?
The first thing I would probably do is go out and celebrate with some friends and then give my parents some money. I may buy some shares after that but I would most likely leave it in a bank account until I left uni.

Re: Mo' Money?
How large is the sum of money? Are we talking "buy a new car" or "buy a new castle"?

Re: Mo' Money?
Buy a house in the middle of nowhere
Give it the biggest ****ing LAN ever
Buy 20 top of the range Alienware Gaming Machines
Invite Mates
Order Take Out, and get Tesco to deliver Beer, Drinks & Munchies
Not leave the house for a month, and only leave the games room to shower and sleep.
End of Discussion.
