Travel a 1/3 of my life and to get started I would go on about a 3 month trip.

Because I am dead ass broke, my money is no object things are so damn practical it would make you weep. Right now my dreams lay in the area of being able to grocery store and buy what I want without having to worry about paying the other bills.

Quit my job. Hire a lovely full-time nanny. Travel the world with my family (and the nanny, of course!).
In that order!

I would buy a house like this: $150,000,000.00 House for Sale (not necessarily this one specifically, but some insane home like it) and invite all the Pea's to come to the house for a Spa weekend! With 20 bathrooms, I figure there won't be a very long wait for a bathroom. All meals prepared by renowned chefs and all of us waited on by hunky men - taking care of every need. (ok, don't let your mind go there - its still my house, no crazy stuff - ok?) ETA: If the first house I shared was not available, this one is a close 2nd choice: 22 Bathrooms! (minus the yellow cow in the yard and the fake sheep in the living area!) I'll bring a nice hostess gift!

I would hire a private yacht in the Mediterranean, be pampered and truly relax.

I would buy a mansion, name it Pea Haven, and open it as a retreat for all the peas. We could hang out and chat in real time. You did say crazy, right? Crazy wonderful.

I would buy a trailer and move my 23yo step-son out of the house (and into said trailer, far far away from me!).
Sigh.

Quit my job, buy my own tropical island, hire all kinds of help (including an awesome chef and an awesome bar tender), hire a pilot and buy a helicopter and jet, and travel from my island around the world. Of course, I'd pay off all of my and my parents' debt as well. Maybe my brother's debt if I was in a good mood and he was being nice.

First off do some traveling to Europe, then around warm parts of the world. Maybe buy an apartment on the cruise liner that goes around the world with it's residents. Buy my husband his Ferrari, buy me a Tesla. Put money in trust funds for dear kiddos college educations. Do a little remodeling on my current home. I like my home, just want to spruce a few things up. Hire a part-time housekeeper. Hire an organizer to help me sort and clean out my home to simplify life.

I'd paint my car metallic orange. Yes very nice. But I'm rather partial to purple so I'd buy this little baby and cruise around the US for a summer.....

I'd build a house with at least a 25 car garage an fill that up first, then add a pool, hot tub and a huge fence to keep out all the neighbors dogs. I'm tired of hearing them bark and stepping in poop in my yard when I don't own a dog.

I would buy an expensive house on the Florida coast of the panhandle below Tallahassee. We actually plan to buy a house there but with our budget it will be more like a shack and without a water view.

1. Leave my job, with a little parting advice on man-management to my boss. 2. Build my dream, coastal, eco-house with a wrap-around veranda, a walled garden and adjoining woodland for the wildlife and for walks. It would have a wing for my family and another for DH's family, with mobility facilities and enough garages for everyone's cars, and a separate laundry room, and a craft room for me and Mum, and a workshop for DH and his dad, and a home cinema for DH. 3. Have a gardener to help the parents with the garden, a cleaner who also does the ironing, and a cook for us all. {sigh}
But I really haven't thought that much about it...

Are you just making up words? It's a real thing! They inject some stuff and it makes your double chin go away. Check out their website! Well, I was going to answer I would build a homeless shelter with with endowment for education. But nevermind! I really want to get rid of my jowls and chin! Can I toss in a painless tummy tuck too?

We actually plan to buy a house there but with our budget it will be more like a shack and without a water view. Ohhhh...I grew up in Tallahassee and we spent almost every weekend during good weather down on St. George Island. If I had a serious glut of funding, I would buy my mom a house there...I have the most amazing memories of day trips and every single spring break until I graduated from high school there. I know someone who just bought a house down on Alligator Point and I am more than slightly envious.

Start a fund in my school corporation to pay for student meds. We would provide them to the schools directly and regulate the way they are dispensed. Students would only take enough pills home for the weekend or break.
A doctor would come to the schools to write the scripts and the pharmacy would deliver directly to the school.
This would all be with parent permission, but cut out the parents who often take them or sell them ADHD and ADD meds are often abused by parents.

I would retire, fully fund an ABLE account for my daughter with health issues, and travel. For my three sons' bathroom I'd install a urinal, a drain in the floor and a pull down hose so I could just spray the whole bathroom down. My brother installed a urinal in his man cave bathroom. My sister in law did not want to clean another shower, so they used the plumbing for a urinal. It was a huge hit with my nephew's friends.

I always said that if I had enogh money, I would love to open a free or low cost veterinarian clinic. Vet care can be so expensive and some people have a hard time even paying for annual checkups/shots, etc. We would offer free spaying/neutering.

I would pay off debt for my sister and her family, pay for my nieces and nephews' college tuitions, and love to anonymously give to all those benefits people have.

I would support the campaign for a 6 year presidency with no reelection. I would force Wally's to provide decent, cheap health/ dental care to all their employees. Support funding to counteract meth/heroin abuse. A vaccine that could prevent addition!
I would buy shoes. Lots of shoes.
