Go back to school start taking classes that actually interests me, instead of for a stable job.

Reminds me of a quote from the TV Show Billions.

“What’s the point of having ‘fuck you’ money, if you never say fuck you?”

• Bobby Axelrod, Billions.

However to your question, live life the way I want. Simple as that.

Pay my parents retirement.

Not sure exactly how much money that constitutes, but assuming I somehow inherited a reasonably large sum of money, do mostly the same thing I am doing now.

Pay immediate cost of living expenses for myself and my partner. I don't have any expensive hobbies that I would need much more. I don't make a ton of money right now, yet it's still more than I can reasonably spend. After rent and food, like half my paycheque goes into the bank already. I am lucky to live in a country where I don't have to worry about an unexpected medical condition costing me millions.

The remaining would go towards charities/local political groups I am involved in. While not without precedence, it would be a strange look to be a stupidly wealthy socialist, and again the money would have no real use to me and would be better served elsewhere.

Buy off all the politicians and have them implement policies that will benefit the working class. Invest heavily in renewable energy sources and public transportation. Buy all the comic books.

Pay the new car I just signed for, buy a teardrop trailer and go camping out in Europe.

Finish the home remodel. Then try to find the best approach to handle riches I guess. Taking care of the kids, getting them towards an exiting life. Support my wife with her entrepreneurial dreams. Make sure my mom is well.

Have a nap. Phone off, door locked, for as long as I want level nap.

I'l tell you what I'd do, man: two chicks at the same time.

Buy Twitter back and ban Elmo

I would:

• Buy a FU environment Car, and use 100% of the speedometer because I paid for it.
• Buy a FU sized house, and fill it full of ballpit balls, cocaine and hookers.
• Buy a FU size music venue, pay U2 to play at the venue, give free entry to everyone and arm them all with 4 cartons of eggs each.
• Throw a massive FU party on the biggest ocean cruiser, invite only the top 10% of richest people. Then scuttle the thing.

Do I have any money left?

• 50% goes to developing Australia.
• 25% goes to the Linux foundation.
• 20% goes to whoever is still alive in my family.
• 5% goes to lizards on the internet, because frankly, the cats are getting too much attention and they are wayyy overrated.

Buy a delorean, eat sushi everyday, and give my wife whatever she wants because she's my angel and I love her.

I'd pay off all my debts, put away enough to be able to quit my job without losing any income, and give the rest away. I already have everything I want and need, the move now is to get rid of shit I don't want.

That's a trick question. After the end of civilization as we know it, no amount of money will do anyone any good, and that end seems imminent. There will be no such thing as “fuck you” money; there will only be “might makes right”, and I am far from mighty.

Build my dream house with an architect. After that I would probably travel the world with friends and family.

I'd buy an old Land Rover series 2 or old Land Cruiser and drive around the high desert looking for shiny rocks.

Pay everyone in my building several years' expected pay to quit all at once, except for one specific manager that everybody hates.
