If you were really rich...

by **Dendrobates** 2022-11-23, 10:06

What crazy/odd things would you spend money on?

1. I'd have my own personal museum. Things like dinosaur fossils, Egyptian and Roman artifacts, pottery/artwork, and
Unique antiques.
2. I love high end jewelry. I don't have much, but I would want a whole room organized by type and gem color.
3. Giant Spartan statue
4. A new natural science building at MSU with the hubby/my name on it.

Giant Spartan statue is the only acceptable answer. Every last penny would be spent on it and it would have my own personal private sweet at its penis level for me to watch home games.

Twitter but I’d pay way way more than it’s worth.

Creating a liberal version of the conservative billionaire's network of political influence.

Of course, an upgrade, including GS to Spartan Stadium.

Awesome list.

How rich is really rich?

Enough for:

1A. Pre-K programs like Head Start
A. Brewery that I wouldn't care if profitable.
C. New building of a certain type at a certain place
3. Endowed scholarship
4. Endowment donations to some excellent institutions that are tuition dependent that would make them tuition independent. Places like Harvard have enough money and they aren't always doing the right things with that money.

Island fortress.

A 20 story parking structure in the middle of campus free for all to use with my name on it.

World peace.

I'd secretly buy up all the public shares of the Packers and fire Gutekunst.

I would buy the Butterfinger factory. I don't know why. Don't even really like them. But I'd buy them. I'd also buy a crap ton of commercial time on the superbowl telecast and just come on and say, "I'm not here selling any of you anything, I'm just here wasting time so you all can take a piss and make yourself another drink".

by **Floyd Robertson** 2022-11-23, 13:29

I'd buy you all furniture for your house. Maybe a nice chesterfield or an ottoman.

You went too nice. I was going for the more personal than philanthropic options. But solid choices.
There are a lot of charities I would like to help out and set up.

OK then let’s go with Heidi Klum’s worn underwear and a cabin in the Sawtooth Range. I could also use a pair of socks.

I guess personally I would expand my saxophone collection.

Remember you talking about sax on tob after I started a Candy Dulfer thread. IIRC you didn't like her music but seemed impressed by the sax she was playing. Have one?

•Giant Spartan statue
•MSU Sports Museum
•Fund a bunch of MSU professorships and scholarships
•Since the MLB is doing nothing, I’d build a bunch of baseball and softball diamonds across the country, with additional funding for actively recruiting teams and salaried coaches, along with uniforms and equipment
•Additional areas nationally where kids and teens could go to play/work out/compete, e.g. basketball courts, soccer fields, pools, etc.
•Dog parks everywhere, plus buildings and land for strays that don’t allow for being crated 24/7. Free to roam, run, swim, etc.

I got dreams, man. Big dreams.

Not sure what you mean here, Gus. But I’d def fund breakfasts and lunches. Free or extra low cost. Kids can’t concentrate in class if they’re hungry and/or thinking about where they’re going to get their next meal.

I'd cover the Swill memberships for each of you for life.

On the real, if we're being altruistic, I'm shelling out to put wells all over the place to try and bring potable water to as many people on Earth as I can. Clean drinking water should be a baseline for every human on the planet, and it is one of our greatest failings as a species that we have not yet achieved that.

Weed needs water too, but yes.
