I was just in town and saw another one of those highest lottery price of 15 million € and I was really tempted to just buy one ticket to hopefully win the money. And that got me thinking "Why would I want that money?".
Actually, I got a whole spectrum of ideas what to do with the money. I thought to start a thread with the simple question:
You got suddenly 15 million bucks. What will you do with that money?
What I would do:
*Buy all games on GOG(figures)
*make sure my step mother's pharmacy is financially save for the next 50 years.
*Get all the books of high quality literature I always wanted
*Go to Japan and buy from Square-Enix the rights of their old games, just as the Soul Blazer Series and Secret of Mana, and have them released at GoG with Open Source. While am I at it, get Alundra and Yamibou on the way and remake them.
*Save the tigers! And doplhins!
*Support the game developers and nationalists in Iran
*Support the Cyrus documentation some dude has been working on since some years
*Buy Lesbos from the Greek gouvernment and create your own game studio there and make dozens of games with lesbian protagonists for the lulz
Well, that would be it. If Ubisoft would be desperate of money, I could make a contract with them and make some Beyond Good and Evil and Prince of Persia games which WON'T suck and are DRM free.

Save a few million to live with, and invest the rest in real estate.
Oh, and I am gonna get myself everything Blizzard have in their store, even if it takes buying a private plane for their safe delivery to my house.

Aaaaaagh! *runs away screaming*
(Sorry...I just spent the last two evenings helping my oldest spend $1 million (imaginary) for a school math project. Given a couple of the ground rules set by the teachers, this took a lot longer than you'd guess. You had to have exact prices and pictures of the items.)
Buy a bigger cleaning cupboard. Seriously.
Angel investor. I always wanted to be able to fund interesting startups.

Does it take that long to find a picture of a super model a bed? *laughs*
I'd pay Relic to make a Homeworld 3 and pay Will Wright to make a Simcity 5. Simcity Societies is crap. And of course I'd buy everything on Gog. The rest I would spend on the Humble Indie Bundle.
I would place it all on Flyers to beat the Bruins tonight and have $30 million in the morning.
i would be dead by now

That's a very close one.
I'd probably buy a fuckload of games, some Vicodin (a lot), and become an evil VC out of the San Francisco Bay Area.

I would hire some of your native thugs to test any number of sex toys on you racist piece of shit (what else) back, for the next 15 months, just for the lulz
I would give much of the money to people I know who need it.
I would buy games.
A good new hunting rifle.
A few knives (I like them)
Move to the USA.
and a few more things.

What the hell, why is it that Greeks always take the word "lesbian" so personally?
There isn't even a hint of rascism, more a word of play because Lesbian is derived from the name of the island Lesbos(common knowledge), shouldn't you be proud having that word in the vocabulary?
Nationalists,pfft.

Way to cover your racism with homophobia. Nice move.
