Originally posted by uncle_el i thought the rules for the thread were no investing.
That's what I would most likely actualy do if I got the money in "real" life. But there's no way I would spend it in one day. But I was talking about in a fantasy splurge type of way (i.e. homes, vehicles, porno, strippers, paintball, entertainment systems, or whatever)
first off take care of my parents, a nice comfy house each, they're divorced, and buy a small plot oof land for my sister's dog. then for me i would buy some land, not sure where, and build my own personal circuit track. prolly something in the mountains or right at the base of a mountain so the track has lots of flowing hills and some sick corners and of course some nice high speed corners. alos use part of that land to build a sweet rally track. of course there would be garage spaces at both and a house for me and whoever comes to race to eat, watch the races going on via cameras all over the courses. and if there is any money left pay somebody off for their 22B STi, only 400-500 released to public (japan only)for my rally car, an EG6 to replace mine that got totalled by a bad driver who enjoys running red lights at full speed, then import an EVO VI TME, and last and best of all I would import a JDM H22A and the 4wd drivetrain of the accord wagon 92-93 (i believe) and swap it into my CB7 coupe, then it would truly be a sleeper, one really sick sleeper. i figure that would cost about $250,000. well actually it's more like $250,000,000,000. Circuit track and Rally track upkeep would cost more than both my arms and both legs. not to mention having the circuit track repaved every so often. but it is fun to dream about.
Actually, I'm only half-Flip, I was born and raised in Indonesia, I don't really get to meet much of my dad's side of the fam 'cept for me grams back when she was still alive... Cool peeps, tho', couldn't understand nuttin' but dey were fun!!!
As for the original question, $250,000 would go into starting up my own company. OK, OK, I'd prob'ly spend about $2k shipping my car back home to Indo, nobody has a LHD 2-door Maestro back home, they'd all freak out!!!! Hahaha! USDM rocks!
Meh...I'd get another CB for an all-motor F track machine, then turbo mine, I'd get a G35 for a daily driver, and I'd put the rest into investment accounts and real estate. I'd prob. still live home though

I think my money is about ending..Buy 100 gallons of captain morgan spiced silver, 200 liters of coca cola, 10 ounces of primo bud, 100 imported cubans (cigars not slaves :P) HEHEHE I like drugs.
To elaborate on Car...
Order a shitload of stuff for the CB, buy a WRX, order a shit load of stuff for that, then save (fuck the rules) the rest for gas/insurance.
- College fees.
- Everything I might want for my current CB7.
- A 1-car mechanic workshop garage (with all the tools, machines, and functionality I would need) with an apartment above it.
- Right next to the workshop-garage/apartment would be a simple stand-alone enclosed garage with enough room for 3 cars.
- I would then get an FD3S that's in good shape, a decent frost-white 2dr 5speed CB7 and a used WRX Sti; and make them my project cars.
- A Futon
- A nice laptop
I figure it might all be somewhere close to $250k, and would still give me things to work on getting.
Mine. "Why don't you spend some money and get this door handle fixed?" - Everyone who rides in my passenger seat

I'd say that I would buy a house for 200k, then spend 15k on a new car, 15k on audio/video shit for my house, 10k for a whole new wardrobe... after taking care of all that shit was done, I'd take the final 10k and blow it all in one huge night at the casino, and a few strip clubs..
