..."I'd go downtown
And buy a Mercury or two"

Sorry Alan, but my tastes run a bit different. :P

What would you do if you had the money for it? Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy a lot of other stuff. What is the one thing it CAN buy that you would get if you could?

An Alaska cruise? Carribean perhaps? A pub crawl in Ireland? A certain furniture set that would look perfect in your living room? Maybe a certain music keyboard?

Counterpoint, before somebody else mentions it:

I'm a homebody, so a cruise has no attraction for me. I've already got the keyboard I want. Any old furniture is fine with me. Aaaaand... I'm not big on drinking OR Ireland. :cool:

There's one thing I want, but I'm gonna get it in less than a month. A Moto G200, a phone with Motorola's "Ready For" (their version of Samsung's Dex Mode.)

Yup, that's all I want right now. I know. I'm boring.

That's why I'm asking y'all what you would want to get if you had the money. Apparently I don't have much imagination. :P

This is an easy one.

I would help others, especially those who are suffering.

I'd purchase more money. Atm, my latest purchase is inching up 10% a day. I'm holding until it reaches 1000% but Imna dream big and hope for at least 10,000% or maybe even 100,000% so I can get a modest mansion for the price of 260 24pk-cases of ramen noodles.

I’ve always wanted to give money to animal shelters, or those charities who shut down circuses that mistreat animals.

If it were something for myself, I would take a trip to different countries around the world.

Sounds like your latest purchase was a cryptocurrency. =^.^=
 
A bulletproof vest.

Actually, personally speaking, I've never owned a brand new car. That would be nice. Not for any selfish reasons. I would use it in a manner which is hopefully honoring unto the Lord. I've had so many car-related problems over the years that have actually hindered me from ministering to people at times that it would be nice to have some reliable transportation.

In a non-personal sense, yeah, it would be nice to have surplus monies with which to help others who are in need.

Heh... That was one of my stepfather's goals. "I want to get one new car before I retire." And he did, and he loved it.

I've still got to warm up to the idea of cryptocurrency. Basically, it's just buying into other people's idea of it?

Yeah, it works like a shared hallucination - it only works if enough people believe in it.

But the rate of growth you were talking about, I couldn't think of anything else it might be.

Ikr, I'll likely have to settle for a quiet bungalow.
 
Interior volume is larger than that of an average coffee mug, yes.

The coloration is necessary. You couldn't do a lot with 8-bit graphics back then. That was the best they could do for a pipe.

Obviously, I like to be able to help others.

For myself, a cabin near mountains, trees, and a stream.
