...in 30 days on whatever you wanted? You can not use it for anything practical?
IE, can't get an operation. Can't set up a savings account or buy stocks. Can't make improvements on the house.

In this hypothetical you have to do something impractical that has no lasting value. IE, you can't buy a yacht because at the end of the month you have a yacht of value.

At the end of the month it must contain no value except the experience that you had spending the million.

I would watch Brewster's Millions and follow accordingly.

And hookers and blow.

Anyone who has seen Office Space knows there is but one answer to this question.

Actually, I think the answers are more OT... not the question.

I'd plan a 15 golf course itinerary in 30 days. Very possible with a private rented jet. I'd only pick the most exclusive famous country clubs. And demand that no one is playing ahead of me.

Probably go east coast to west. Definitely in late Spring to early Summer. Couldn't do it outside US borders in that amount of time.

But, if you'd like some OT, then I can demand a stewardess on the plane with big tits. But I would never touch them. Zach is a righteous man.

If that's the case, do as much high-end travelling as possible. Donate whatever is left to charity.

That brings up a good point. Would you donate what is left over to charity or to your own children?

Any self-respecting man would rent a tank, drive it around and shoot live ammo until the money ran out. Shouldn't take long at all.

Fly around the world in a chartered Gulfstream jet stopping in some of the places I have not been, and do some cool stuff. In Russia I would pay to fly the Mig Su29, travel on the Trans-Syberian railroad, hike up to Mt. Everest base camp in Nepal, check out the Taj Mahal in India, visit some friends in Kenya, and New Zealand, dive the Barrier reef.

Grab some friends and make it rain in Ibiza for a week, or until we can't party anymore.

I wouldn't enjoy it knowing I had to blow it all in 30 days. Just not my style.

2) Shoot every weapon in the Modern Warfare series.

Can't donate to kids because that would have some sort of value, unless it was in a fund you couldn't touch and they didn't get it until you were dead or something.

Me? I would charter a jet and fly all over the world. Party it up with some bros. I would take the balance and have Rosie Jones roll around with me topless, taking care of my every need.

I'd give it all to my kids if that's an option

Rent a lear jet and blow it all on jet fuel as I contribute to the ozone depletion process by flying into every obscure country I can in less than 30 days.

Flying on private jets, eating $1000 burgers, staying in $20,000 a night suites, creating a celebrity charity basketball game so I could ball with Shaq and intentionally foul Beiber, etc.

But I would get someone to follow me around with a camera while I did it and later turn it into a reality TV series that'd I'd sell for more than the $1,000,000 initial investment.

we can debate the "lasting value" of reality tv in a cultural sense, but if you could sell the intangible product, it has a value on the market. ergo, no loop hole
