Million bucks is not all that much these days so I suppose I couldn't go all crazy (though it is still more than I am likely to make in my whole life).

So a house of my own does not sound to stupid.

Maybe I would quit my job an go to study physics. I always wondered if I would find it more interesting than what I do now. Though if I know myself at all, I would grow bored of that too.  :facepalm:

If you owned your house and kept your costs down though getting bored of physics wouldn't be that terrible would it? You could always do a nice easy job to keep a bit of cash coming in while you find what really excites you.

That is true. While you can't go all crazy with that amount of money it does give you quite a bit of time for deciding what to do next.  :D

Yeah! All this talk of a million bucks not being that much these days. It depends what your expectations are. It'll still get you a place you can call your own to put your feet up and some time away from the rat race.  :cheers:

Firstly, your sponsor has asked me to not enter into any conversation based around the 'C' word. I hope you understand.

The African Prince sounds like a straight up kinda guy. Give him your details - what's the worst that can happen? You end up living in a luxury space station!

Not sure why I found that sentence as funny as I did but fair enough, carry on then  :D
Kind regards,

Well, after reading everyone's ideas, I finally got a plan for when it happens to me!

In Toronto a million dollars will get you a small condo.   :facepalm:

I chose a million dollars and not, say, 30 million because I wanted it to be somewhat challenging to choose what to do with it. It really does not buy as much as some people think for sure.

I promised my family and friends that I wouldn't forget them if I ever got rich. So I'm going to send each and every one of them a really nice post card from my bungalow on the beach.

To my family, that keeps complaining I've never gave them nothing, I give... nothing!

Happy now?!
