I'd go on a wildly sporadic movie shopping spree. Or buy more money.  ;D |

Ooohh heh heh, being poor as I am, this is something I've thought of waaaaaaaaay too often:
A house.
A Chrysler Crossfire.
A vintage 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air.
A ton of DVD's.
A ton of CD's.
European Vacation so I could see all the bands I like that don't ever come to America: Gorgoroth, Rotting Christ, Thyrfing, Destroyer 666, etc.
And I'd show up at Bart's or Spacer's unexpectedly and make them take a couple days off of work to watch movies or sight-see.
(oh, and pay off debts)
And then I would either start up a business or fund an independent film, written and directed by yours truly.

We'd no doubt think of a good way to spend the rest of your money then! ;D Personally I'd use them for two things mainly: 1. A pretty house in some quiet place near my town. 2. Travelling a lot. DVD's? Well, if I spent a large sum on these I'm sure I wouldn't have time to watch'em all - and I hate having more than I can chew on. After some thinking, I'd also use the money for... 3. A new car. Preferably a Jeep. Yeah. |

First I'd pay off all my bills, then buy a new house...and I don't know what after that. Probably put the rest in the bank & let draw interest so I'd never have to work again! ;D

There was a guy on TV who won millions of bucks in a lottery somewhere (in America) and he gained $18,000 in interest every day. You could hire on a full-time maid or butler and afford to pay 'em for a year within 3 days!

I've already prepared a bottle of Polish strong beer 9% and Polish moonshine vodka 80%. I know you are gonna love it and be quickly gone ;D(blissfully unconscious). |

Pay off my bills, pay off my immediate family & closest friend's bills, travel the world, the rest goes in the bank and investments and live off the interest.

You forgot to add that you would increase your Star Wars collection astronomically. Then you could open a Star Wars Museum and make money off nerd tourists like me. |

I don't know about a museum, but I would definitely invest in some out of the norm collectibles. Maybe a screen used Darth Vader costume or something else equally eyepopping. If I did open a museum, I'd let you guys in for free. |
