It's like the question from Office Space. Would you do nothing? Two chicks at the same time? Two words.
Strip club. spend it Live comfortably. i would do nothing.... i'd probably pay off my parents debts and save the rest eat it go mad Buy a condo in New York City. I would buy me a house! and ask you to move in with me so we can share the money donate some, buy mansion, lamborghini help family and pay my university Take 10% and go crazy to get it out of my system. Then invest the rest and watch it grow Shopping in Paris! shop!!! , give some to my parents, save and invest. first off, i would pay Brad and Jen to leave America forever, tired of both of them. Stay in Africa. first i would buy an escalade and then add on to my house and invest the rest Buy a house and fix it up. Buy my car off of my dad. Put aside some to live on for a year or two. Invest the rest carefully so I'd have more than enough to live off of for the rest of my life, which would include allowing me to see the world and buy more houses and do things for my family and friends and the world. That's the plan. Have fun and maybe a little less stress for awhile. i would put towards colledge maybe help my parents and wit left overs get an apartment i would buy some business so i can sit home collect more money i would probably put it all in the bank so i can invest in money..then spend little at a time....or go places i really want to go...like GERMANY!!!! Have fun investing, spending, traveling, helping out some people - live life a little more comfortable and hopefully with a little less stress! Buy my own Baking Store. I love to bake cookies and cakes and breads so I think thats what I would do . Build my owm Cookie store.
Want a cookie? Sock some away in trust funds for my kids first. Then I'd get a new car and house for me, my mom, and my sister. Real estate is cheap down here. I could get some really nice houses bought and paid for like $85,000 each and still have plenty of money to spend. Anyway, my kids would have money when they turned 21 so they could go to college and get a car or whatever else they wanted. hmm, with one million dollars, i'd:
1) donate around 1/10th to various charities.
2) buy a car. a nice car. maybe two. =)
3) help my mom & dad pay off this rediculous debt they've gotten themselves into by buying our new house...hah!
4) put the rest in the bank & let it gain interest.
5) i almost forgot...an iPod. hah. i might give into Apple.
6) keep living as i have been, like a normal, middle-class 16-year-old. i can worry about being rich later. my life is already rich in happiness, and we all know that money isn't happiness (but it certainly does help! lol) I would by myself a house and then another on the other side of the us clothes and nice cars and trucks and invest for the future of my son I would still work and finish my college degree but I would live alot nicer than now Buy a nice,comfy house,not too extravegant. Buy a couple nice trucks. Put my kids in a good school. When the human mind makes a decision, that decision causes the mind to visualize and have faith in that which is desired. The day when a creative idea is harmonized with faith, abundance is born.
So, what if you had a million dollars? Would you consider yourself wealthy? What would you do with it? I ask this question of you because, when you begin to think of all the wonderful healing and life affirming actions you could perform with the use of abundance, you step closer to actually finding the means to create that abundance and the actions that follow. We all need to live as if we had a million dollars.
In my work as a spiritual teacher, I have routinely run across individuals who believe they do not deserve the creation of prosperity, and thus often say "no" to the deliciousness of life. They block avenues of abundance that might lead them in the direction of creating great joy and gifts of spiritual value.
I have met those who feel that prosperity is to be feared or scorned. Because there are so many in our Universe, at this time, who practice negative means of creating financial well-being, many good meaning people have decided to turn their backs upon financial abundance. And, this often leads to a limited means of healing and helping others.
While the pursuit of money can lead to evil, money itself is not the evil. Thus, a renewed way of thinking about financial abundance can lead many into a renewed means of healing the self and the world.
It is those who have learned to believe and operate from the perspective that their own personal success is necessary in helping others find success, who often become the most lavish providers of our world. Andrew Carnegie is one such example. Carnegie spent much of this life learning and teaching that funds could be made in a positive and harmless manner.
And, those funds can be used to motivate and help others. While it is clear that financial success is not the root of healing or spiritual success, it is also clear that a modern healer living in modern times, must have at least a sound financial basis to reach as many individuals as possible.
Basically, the message of this article is not a new one. The message is-take care of yourself first and then you are better equipped to help others learn to take care of themselves.
This message may be applied to many avenues; take care of your health so that you can help heal others, take care of your spirit so you can nurture the spirit of others and take care of your family and friends when care is needed so that you can be an example and help others learn to do the same.
As I walk my own spiritual path, I come to new lessons and I walk past old ones. The new lesson of my day is the lesson of spiritual growth through making peace with financial growth. I have learned that when I live each day as if I had a million dollars, I dare to reach farther than I might reach if financial matters restricted me. I am filled with less fear and self concern. I live with the zest that life can be anything I want it to be. And, I am a better intuitive and healer. Money seems to lose its importance. And, I pay more attention to the "real stuff" of life.
Living as if I had a million dollars allows me to think less about money and love life with more vigor. I am rich with vigor when simply changing my thoughts. Some reading this article will suggest they have learned this lesson long ago. Others will try this method, experiencing it as a new one, and better their life and service to others along the way.
If you desire change, begin living as if you were a millionaire. Ask yourself the question, "If I had a million dollars, what would I do?" And, begin planning for and doing those things. And for those who truly wish to develop the type of thinking that helps individuals create actual wealth, begin today creating a new belief system and you just might find that new financial success comes to you.
Once a belief system of success is established, it is essential to develop a concrete plan to obtain that which is desired. Because ideas are abstract in nature, it is necessary to put to work those ideas in a physical manner.
Begin by planning how you will develop ideas. Ask yourself what physical things are necessary in the development of the idea. Do you need to make phone calls and speak with others about your goals? Is it necessary to visit others and speak to them? Must you work and save? Should you write a plan of action?
Once you have created your ideas and then begun physically working toward your goals, you will begin to see your ideas manifest. Through this entire process, you will find that continuing a focus of "What will I do if I achieve this goal?" remains helpful to your success.

Well, I would start my FCM. It only needs $250,000 to start. I would invest another $500,000 in building the business: recruiting, establishing business relationship with investment banks, office supplies, another $250,000 as emergence fund. Because no business makes money in the first year. It's really a lucrative business. i would pay off all my bills, buy homes for my children, set up trust funds for my grand children, give to my church and charities. go on a vacation since i havent been on one in 20 years. If anything was left i would help out my friends too Save $500,000, and blow the rest baby!!! i would invest pay mybills and go on a great family vacation Spend it as fast as I could cause I am older than dirt !! |
