    I'd buy a nuclear power plant, only to sell it back to it's owner for 50 million.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,016 ✭✭✭✭vibe666


    Hilton?
    for 100 million Euro I'd expect the whole city of Paris to be lined up on it's knees.

    anyway, i've lost all respect for Paris Hilton now she's been with Ronaldo. i thought she had standards. i know they were "tapeworm limbo Olympics" low, but I didn't think she'd stoop THAT low! :)

    now, if I had 100 million quid, I'd be ordering myself a luxury submarine like THIS and go off sailing the seven seas. :)

    Get the FCUK out of Ireland and go to California where all the women are gorgeous and are well no easy way to say this...they aint stuck up materialistic irish birds!

    Live it up!

    Id prob take a Sh!t and wipe my arse with a 200Euro Bill! just to see what the craic was!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,824 ✭✭✭ShooterSF


    The usual car's and houses for family and myself. I'd buy a bar and make it a private club for my closest friends. I'd put €10m aside for it to run and let them drink for free until it ran out.
    I'd buy a nice season ticket to Old Trafford.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    There's a really nice hat I saw in H&M the last day.

    I'd probably get that and wear it to the pub where I'd buy imported beer all night.

    Eh...... after that I'd have to have a think.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,321 ✭✭✭prendy

    I'd give five of my best mates 1m each and give my brother, dad and mam 5m each. Then I'd buy an apartment in London and Paris, maybe New York, and a summer villa in Florence. I'd buy a matte black lamborghini and a souped up pontiac firebird and hire a financial advisor to help me play the stockmarket. And of course, a solid gold toilet and jetpack. Possibly a moat for my villa with sharks

    100 million would surely get you some time with "materialistic Irish birds", wouldn't it?

    Expensive cherry-pop though, in fairness.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,115 ✭✭✭magicianz


    I'd change try and get it all changed into 1cents and buy everything i wanted, 1 cent at a time like an old lady counting her pennys!

    "I'll take the mansion!"
    -"It's 4.5 million euro."
    "Right just let me get my penny jars...."

    a brilliant idea to be sure, but possibly one with a very limited customer base with very few referrals. :)

    i've worked in a couple of banking companies (doing IT stuff) and I can tell you now that they know where every single cent goes when it comes in and when it goes out.

    i can guarantee you now with absolute certainty that SOMEONE knows where that money went, they're just not saying anything. ;)

    I'd get about 50k in cash and walk around Dublin on a sunny day. I'd approach busty babes and offer them €1,000 if they let me spunk all over their face and tits. If they refused I'd offer €2,000.

    So you expect to find (at least) 25 busty babes walking around dublin? :confused: You probably should take another 3k of that 100mil and invest in some lasik.

    WTF? On a sunny day you can't walk a couple of yards without seeing some amazing, big titted, gorgeous babe wearing revealing clothes, my real fear is that I will splodge the load in my trousers before I'm able to whip my cock out. I don't expect to find 25 girls willing to let me degrade them, but if I find a girl who's really worth it I'll offer her up to €10,000, thats why I'm taking 50k with me.
