I had no idea it was in "The Island," I found out about this sucker about 2 years ago from another forum.

Also, yeah, about $24 million USD with the turbine engines, but if you get it with twin turbo diesel engines, the price drops to about $17 million.

Wow , doesn't that have a pretty price tag!!
Does anyone know, or could find out how many of these bad boys are actually owned.

- build my bro, mom, and dad each a huge house
- buy each of them the car they've always wanted
- pay off any debts they, as well as I, may have
- buy a big lot of land and build myself a huge house
- buy a condo in T.O. somewhere
- buy some super car, some suv, and a nice luxury car, no idea which ones
- go clothes shopping lol
- on my property for my house, have a huge building, which would obviously be, a mini club. complete with all the state of the art sound and lighting technology. just a place for friends to dj and party it up.
- I would buy a number of different propertys including an apartment building to start
- donate $10million to the CNIB
- donate $10million to the canadian cancer society
- donate $10million to sick kids hospital

with a billion eh.....
- new house (I love my house but if I have a billion I think maybe an upgrade would be in order) with a large plot of land
- pay off my brother's house (I would buy him a new one but knowing Scott he wouldn't be willing to accept a gift of that magnatude)
- pay off my in-laws mortgage
- purchase a vacation property in Turks Cacos (spelling?)
- purchase an ocean going cattamaran (40 foot or so)
- investment in a balanced and semi secure stock portfolio
- purchase/establish a business enterprise (something small, to keep me busy)








Oh, big TOTA party - line up TBA, free admission, party favours and beverages on me!

What I'd Buy:

A Saab with all the shit - and it'd be automatic
A yacht and a crew to sail her
An island in Fiji and build a small town on it with general store, hardware, groceries, an H&M outlet, etc. and invite anyone who wants to to live there to do so for free (hence the need for a town). Make a sick club on the island with the best soundystem and get any DJs I want to spin there for my friends.
A Flat in Amsterdam.
A giant plot of land in Montana or Colorado with a horse ranch.
A plane for easy commute.
Home for my mom and a car whereever she wants - although she'd probably pick the island anyways.

What I'd Do:
Spend 2-3 years travelling the world - leave no corner untouched save maybe the Poles.
Become a wildlife photographer and get published in National Geographic.
Donate millions to the National Park Service to keep their lands as is and expand them.
Back a good Democratic candidate for presidency.
Donate millions to alternative energy research and study climatology of previous warming periods in the Earth's history.
Hire myself J-Lo's trainer and then take her on in a dance off a year later.
Donate millions to pro-choice, pro-gay, pro-civil rights groups.
Write a book.

I am FILTHY GODDAMN RICH but i dont need anything
I am happy with what I have.

You cant buy real treasures for money!


Posted by Billche on Apr-25-2006 13:27:

First thing's first.... I'd retire


I'd probably be pretty reasonable with my money, give myself a budget of like 5-10 million per year or something. I'd definately buy a lot of property, maybe a penthouse in that new trump tower to live in

Cars? I wouldn't be able to decide, so I'd just buy one of every car I liked.

Travel? Snowboarding in whistler, partying in ibiza, shopping in milan or New York. I'd spoil myself shamelessly.


Posted by StereoPrincess on Apr-25-2006 13:39:

A perfect condo downtown Toronto.

A perfect big house in downtown South Beach.

A helicopter and helicopter pilot.

A car and a driver service. I hate driving myself.


Posted by StereoPrincess on Apr-25-2006 13:44:

Oh, and of course a club. Where only the DJs that I wanna hear are gonna play. With cheap booze and free cover.


Posted by MissM on Apr-25-2006 13:51:

I find it very touching that most if not all of our lists begin with taking care of our family and friends - shows what is really important in life

Although I wouldn't mind a billion or two...

Things I would buy:
7 exotic cars - one for each day of the week.
That boat you guys pictured above.
A Fountain 42 Poker Run Speed Boat with custom baby blue paint job.
A loft in NY, Miami, London, Paris, Rome and Dubai.
A castle in Austria.
A bigger purse collection than Kimora Lee Simmons.
The love of Armin Van Buuren.

Things I would do:
Fulfill the wishes and dreams of my family and friends.
Travel the world a few times over.
Never again sit at the desk I'm at now, wishing I had a billion dollars.

M.

So you just won a billion dollars. What do you buy, and what do you do? Be as selfish as you want, none of this charity bullshit, because that isn't what this is about.

Here's what I would buy:

  • A house in Cambridge
  • A house in Windsor
  • A house in Santa Monica, California
  • A place of some sort in Monaco
  • A place in Amsterdam
  • A house on Texel, NL, near my aunts and uncles and junk
  • 1 Rolls Royce Phantom for cruising
  • 1 Lotus Sport Exige for tracking
  • 1 Ariel Atom for nearly dying in every time I'd drive it
  • 1 Maybach S62 for when I'm feeling saucy and in need of chauffering
  • 1 Mini Cooper S JCW Convertible
  • A huge plot of land here in Cambridge on which to build my own racetrack and garage paddock
  • A fleet of 8 Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradales with which to do battle with my friends each and every weekend
  • A Wallypower 118 yacht



THINGS I WOULD DO:

  • Invest whatever I don't spend initially
  • Buy a nice new Mercedes S-Class and go to a really busy intersection in downtown Toronto one busy summer afternoon in a traffic jam, then get out and start smashing the car with a hammer while yelling "OH GOD WHAT AM I DOING *smash* OH NO NO SERIOUSLY SOMEBODY STOP ME OH THE HORROR" and then, when my helicopter comes to pick me up, it will engulf the area entirely in smoke and I'll make my getaway while the helicopter, on its attached PA system, blares Wagner's "Ride of The Valkyries"
  • Hire Jeremy Clarkson to follow me around and ramble nonsensically about things
  • Hire George Carlin to rant about things on command while swearing every 3rd or 4th word (no change from his usual routine, really)
  • Throw a ridiculous party every weekend at one of my houses, free everything for guests
  • uhhhh some other stuff here



So yeah that's what I'd do, maybe. Ridiculous and very selfish yes, but it's $1 billion, come on.

What would YOU do?



all great things, but alas i dont see a Dukati, Triumph, BMW or any other motorcycle anywhere. Shame on you Cale, shame. Also dissapointed not to see an Aston Martin DBR9 in the list.
