    id buy my parents house for them, buy the neighbours house so that my parents can live in there while i live in their house, my another house close to me and knock it down and build a massive garage out of it, put foot walls all the way round the 3 houses and the massive garage with big Rought Iron (sp???) gates at the front, the walls would be grey, id then build the perfect Kitcar (or four) each different colours and with different engines. id then drive round the country in these cars, handing out money to those who needed it willy nilly, once ive given out a few million to some hobo's ill give another few million ot some charities, then take my most favourite kitcar, my wallet, a bottle of water, a sandwich... and drive all the way down england, over to france, and all across europe jsut buying what i need as i need it, finally ending up in chezch republic or russia or somewhere, then fly back (with my car ofcourse) home again, give out some more money to peopel who needed it and to some charities, then have all my amtes round in my massive back yard for a mad night out in our hometown like the old days, id then change my name to maxamillion and live out a life of leisure at home, playing counter strike source for copius amounts of time, and the odd session on warcraft, (of course id have a mad beefy computer)

    just my thoughts
    Under Development...

    A bank would be ideal for me - future investments = more money!
    Or even a stock market type of business.

    And by cars/houses in the future with the interest.
    Woohoo now Assistant Manager!

    pay off the credit cards and any over drafts for friends and family. Cars for people that kind of thing.

    oh and the 65" plasma i saw in the Panasonic shop this afternoon

    I'd buy a fat house, lots of uber PCs with 8 monitors on each. private jet and flying lessons, scan & hexus (David and all can still run it), enough fuel for my jet to last my life, loads of software, small villa in italy, all the power stations in the uk and build wind, wave & tidal farms. That should cover me

    finally the surge protector I've always needed but can't justify buying

    I'd buy a small island somewhere warm, then provision it with a james bond villan style hangout, with the biggest possible internet connection I could get

    Then invite selected people over for holidays..

    Seriously? I have no idea tbh

    Yes... It would be a small island, with a big ranch type place with a couple of huge cinema rooms, and lots of computers with a 100mbit internet connection, a bar, and a beach/seaside right outside. And NO tourists in sight.

    We should all put together and create Hexus Island. It'll be a utopia.

    I would bank it, and live a comfortable life off the interest.
    £1billion (US billion) is £1,000,000,000, at 4% in a bank, thats £40,000,000 a year. Or about £770,000/week. Enough I feel.

    I would spend it on a nice private house, with pool etc, and a few holiday homes.
    I would still like to finish my degreee though.

    Have a huge party round at my new house, for everyone i have ever known/had contact wiht (that includes all you lot). Send out invitations, and get people tracked down, and send private jets to wherever they are to come to my party. Get in the caterers and a huge marquee and everything, famous DJs, whatever anyone wants. And hold the worlds best party ever.

    I would also love to stand in the street and give out tenners...like those people giving out flyers for their business in the street, but this would be cash. That would rock. I would give all my family and close friends a share.

    Get a personal jet, and pilot. And other random PAs and staff.

    Personal rubbish as well: A new nice and small laptop, a nice evreyday car and a few sweet rides as well. Masserati or something.

    Give a chunk to charity, but actually make sure something gets done with it.

    Invest in renewable energy and other sensible research projects/charities.

    That'll do for now.
    When I reach my target I'll let you guys know (the private jet coming to pick you up for a party would probably be a bit of a giveaway).
