If you won a ridiculous amount of money....

[Reaper]

What would I do if I won $35 Million?

First things first I would get an accountant of the highest regard so I didn't end up starring in my own version of Brewster's Millions.

Then, I would have a sizeable estate built somewhere in or around Calgary. I would have a convertable IIHF/NHL sized rink with 500 seats for it. I'd have a Zamboni that I would learn to drive so I could resurface the ice surface myself. I'd have enough sets of hockey gear so that if anyone dropped by we could always play hockey.

In my estate I would have a theatre room with a state of the art projector wall so I could watch hockey on tv in style.

I'd have a workshop where I could tinker with anything because I would have a professional shop master buying tools and machinery for me to use. He'd also be knowledgable about metal and polymer fabrication so I would be able to make anything I wanted to with his assistance.

I'd negotiate a lifetime lease on a luxury suite at the Saddledome... $5 Million would probably cover it.

If I ever got bored I would probably go around making outrageous offers to people to do stunts or degrade themselves for my amusement. I would enjoy seeing what people would do for legal money...

Fly in for every Flames home game and follow them on the road. Guess I would be saving a lot of money right now

Buy a House in Calgary

Furnish the house in Calgary

Buy a house in Maui, furnish the house in Maui..

Throw big Party..

Present family with million dollar cash gifts..

Fly between Maui and Calgary on a reg basis..

Spend my time swimming in the pool in Lahina.. going to the gym, and continuing on my School work... Flying home to Calgary to play hockey for a few weeks here and there.

Pretty much what I do in calgary.. but with zero responsability and lots of money..

Then in the summer I'd travel.. or winter... or whenever I got bored.. but only for a week or two per trip..

Yeah this might be cheesy but i always wanted to build motorcycles. So i would put $25 million into it and $10 million to my folks just because they raised me and did lots of things for me when I was a wee little lad back then

[Superfraggle]

Make the glorious step up from Lucky Lager to Trad. Stupid student poverty.

I would definetley donate atleast 1 million to various charitys, especially ones that help out people in africa and those kind of palces. Very sad how most of them lived. With the rest, I would probably just invest it and travel the world.
