If you had a billion US dollars, how would you spend it?

Money money money!!!! Oh lord my gosh 1 billion dollars. Okay let’s call it a billie, not billy like the goat, for in my area and town I would be the goat if I had a billion dollars.

Okay my answer is so relatively simple. How can I spend a bill in 10 steps or less.

  1. Buy a few houses and properties. – ehhhh 30 million.
  2. Hire all the right professionals to help keep the money I plan to keep and tax write off the ones I am fitting to give away. – ehhhh 3 million.
  3. Donate to important charities and organization who may need help. – 50 million.
  4. Pay off all my friends debts, cars, and houses. Say I have 15 close friends. You are welcome. ehhhh 20 million.
  5. Same thing goes for 15 chosen family members, so family tends to be big. ehhh 30 million.
  6. Invest tons of money…ehhh 500 million. (the interest on the money funds, the expenses of everything that can go wrong.
  7. Buy Dream Car and House. – ehhhhh 1 million.
  8. Travel and do a bunch of stuff, and investing in people, laugh lot, create a foundation, whatever foolishness left. ehhhh with the leftover of the millions I didn’t count.

  1. I liked your list of spending a Billie dollars. Cool. But if you lived in Southern California, you could NOT get a dream house for $1 million, let alone a dream car. So I hope you live elsewhere. Our house, a simple 3 bedroom, 2 bath one-story, on a 10th of an acre lot is just under a million. Beach front or nearby (my dream) would be in the tens of millions. Love your posts in Bloganuary. I need to keep mine short and sweet like you do.

    1. Ha Ha… I believe you. I live in New York City. We have a similar prospects. lol. I know the costs out there. My neighboring options is state is CT… My dream house I already saw, I am more on the simpler person. I aim not for the bigger home. My house say 650-800 and dream car is 200. But I totally hear what you are saying. I thought this was one of those big posts I wanted to see what everyone is writing. :). Thanks for visiting. Somehow I think we may think the same, rational. 🙂

  2. I really like your list. #2 is good sense. Hiring someone to find a way to pay less tax is worth every penny. Or so I hear, I take a whole 4 weeks in TurboTax trying just to finsh.

    1. I proud of you though… at least you went manually doing your own taxes.

      I been doing turbo tax myself for 14 years and I have been spot on. But also the easier cheat is buying an ebook for $12 on Amazon that literally tell you the easiest tax codes and write off you can use that are 1000% legit to minimize your taxable income. And spending time to read it, or hit the library to find the same said book and rent it out. Don’t worry I am not saying you have to, just noting what I dig once I was like, I need to take control on my money.

      1. Do you have any book recommendations?

    2. Thanks from commenting though, truly appreciate the time taken to drop in. Any great books you have read that you recommend?
