    Live off of interests.

    Possibly have a simple job on the side just a couple of days a week in order to get some human contact and meet new people.

    After clearing myself and my mom of debt? (I may not like the woman much but she birthed me and raised me best she could, I owe her that much) Buy myself a nice apartment in the city, a decent car or motorbike (maybe one of each if I'm not going crazy with the cash we're not talking a Lamborghini here) and invest the rest wisely.

    I would get my dad and me out of debt, buy him another boat to live on, get my license back, buy a car, blah blahblah.

    Pay off all my loans, buy a condo, and give the rest to family members who need it for whatever reason. :O

    Starting on my left with one, your number comes up, you go.

    How large and how many sums? Because if it's big enough I would just go to the moon.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.

    Buy that harmonica from Canadian Survivorman's Les Stroud.

    I want him to suffer the silence from lack of music while he toils in the Swiss alps.

    I would hire Bill Murray to go to every single one of your houses and raid your fridge, judge your record collection, and then leave after licking your ear and whispering, "no one will ever believe you!".

    I am inclined to believe that Bill Murray would do all of that for free.

    And we'd totally believe each other if we all revealed our experience!

    I would eradicate poverty. And this is where someone pipes up and says "But Daniel, that would take a ridiculous amount of money to..." and I give them that smug look while they remember that it is quite clearly specified that this would be a ridiculous amount of money.

    The other thing I would do is buy every house I can in some classy area on the outskirts (or inskirts) of Auckland and then buy all (read: potentially hundreds) of my EoFF friends entrance into New Zealand (for whatever it costs, I'm sure I can do this for a ridi-- oh, you get the idea) and then we can all live together and chill out at each other's places and whatever. I would also invest in an awesome town hall kind of thing which would be fitted up for some epic LAN parties.

    I would also buy villas and visas for various countries, travel the world, stay at lots of nice hotels, etc.

    EoFF staff would get paid a very nice salary.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!
