    Default If I had a load of money...

    I would buy some patches of land around England and Scotland, and erect giant structures as high as they could go in all of them. I would do this purely for the entertainment it would give me as flight patterns would change everywhere.

    What would you do with a smurftonne of cash?

    Example of a terrible answer, by a terrible man:

    Anything more than one million dollars I might consider keeping for brainless spending or sharing with friends. for example if I somehow came across 5 million dollars I would split a chunk of it with my family.

    However regardless, as long as I had that much money I would have to disappear. I can hide having a million dollars. I can't hide having a million dollars of liquid capital.

    I would command planes to fly into all your structures, destroying them.

    I'd buy myself a peerage, after all isn't that how this country works?

    As a Lord I'd make it my solemn duty to get in to as much public scandal as possible whilst owning all the tabloids so that they'd only report good things about me. Undoubtedbly this would conspire in the public's eye to make me prime minister. I would then re-introduce the punishment of exile and ban whoever I didn't like starting with any and all members of the BNP or UKIP because it'd be hysterically funny to see these slow, stupid racist idiots go "but what do we call ourselves? We're banished from the UK!"

    I'd also turn 11 Downing Street in to a strip club because I could and for no other reasons.

    This may seem a bit, well, silly to some of you, but uh... I've always wanted to have... a friend. I mean I've tried to get some of you fine people to be my friends but you all think of me as a weirdo and a loser and y'know what? That's fine. I get it. Can't win 'em all, eh? Ha ha ha! But just once in my life it'd be nice to have a friend. I might get a bit crazy with it and buy like, two, three, maybe even four friends if I really wanted to push the boat out. I'll see how I go with one friend first though, 'cause it might be a lot of work.

    In our defence, Paul, you are a weirdo and a loser. That's why I'm your lover friend.

    Ah, ooh. This is awkward. Yeah, I know I said I wanted to make friends, but uh... I didn't mean with you. I mean, don't get me wrong, you're a... person... that I know... but uh... what I'm trying to say is that you're a degenerate apple licker who most likely has intercourse with tractors. Nothing personal.
