If you won a million pounds, what would you do with it? (I say pounds rather than dollars or any other currency as the pound is worth almost twice that of the dollar at the moment so a pound sterling millionaire is richer than a dollar millionaire!) Would you blow the lot on a hedonistic, wild adventure of booze, fast cars, and loose women/men? Would you invest it, either trying to make even more money or using it as a nest-egg you could dip into whenever you wanted? Would you give some to charity, or to family, or your favourite sports team, or your chosen political party? Or use it to travel the world, or go back to college and do that course you always wanted to but couldn't afford?

One million pounds UK sterling, no more, no less (I'm not sure how much it converts into in Euros or any other currency).

Myself, I'd split it three-ways between me, my brother and sister. That way I know we'd all be OK but still not feel to rich to just spend the rest of our lives sitting on our asses, whilst our parents and grandparents and immediate families would have no problems anymore. But in order to ensure an even three-way split (and to celebrate) I'd spend £10,000 on a huge party!!

Exchange them for American dollars

Pay off mine and my sister's college educations.

Exchange them for American dollars

ditto, I do not want imperial notes in my possesion. And besides, pounds do **** in America!

Exchange it for dollars, especially at the current exchange rates.

Goes to show, when you speak of a currency that is not in dollars, be sure to put ($howmanydollarsitreallyis) after that odd forgein number

I'd use it to start up some kind of Conservative Party in India ..and kick out the idiots that run the country...sigh...
:roll:

look at all the people saying they'd rather exchange it for dollars rather than getting to the point...ME for example!

What does that have to do with needing to say how many dollars it is when you list a foreign currency?

BTW, I would spend it on cars, preferably an Aston Martin or two, maybe a TVR Cerbera.

AU $2,397,590.00

First million gets invested, second million put in the bank for spending money, $397,590 gets me a house and a nice car and pays off my HECS.

Buy the NS General forum and change it into the official "Tumaniaa's so damn rich" forum.
Then I would spend the rest of my life in front of the screen smoking cigarettes and watching the forum in awe.

I would probably buy a whole ton of oil, considering that the price of oil is set to rise with the next few months. Then I would sell my oil once the price has climaxed...then I would get it changed into Australian Dollars...

You two read my mind.

Why India? Do that in America, I would love you for it.

I'd switch it into Canadian dollars, invest half and use the rest for a mountain of cocaine.

I'll open my own ski resort, the first one where you feel better after falling. :wink:

Switch it into American dollars and then buy a shitload of Russian made weapons and invade Washington D.C. :wink:

Or, buy Chinese made copies of Russian gear and send twice as many men in.

Gosh, do you think you get a good ski on cocaine? Surely it's very powdery?

I'd like to say I'd buy my folks and my brother and my sister a new house but with the property market the way it is here I probably wouldn't have enough left over for a house for me

Feck my siblings then, they can have a big, fat pile of cash to do with what they will. I'd buy my folks a nice house with a garden and I'd get one of those for me too.

Ah, it's nice to dream....

pish, whats a pound? I only do dollars.

Eh, similar to flour, plus it's al about being able to tell people you've been skiing on blow. Then when they ask how much you took you can explain you were on top of it, skiing.

:lol:

British currency, almost $2.
