I think 10 million and 10 billion would amount to roughly the same thing for me unfortunatly. A giant pile of coke and an early funeral. [/ QUOTE ] nh

Except for the drugs, I'd do much of what others have listed. I would also use it to screw with people. Influence a presidential election. Mess with the stock price of companies I find don't like.

I'd take my mother out to dinner. If she wanted French food, we'd go to Paris. If she was in the mood for Chinese... [ QUOTE ] So I'd get an MLB team ...Then I'd buy so many players, people would start calling Steinbrenner...cheap. [/ QUOTE ] Steinbrenner spends $200M+ per year on players. You'd spend $300M? After three years, one of your ten B will be gone. You'll see that you're on the path to ruin, and you'll bail. You'll have the greatest fire sale in sports history. IOW, you'll be Wayne Huizenger. [/ QUOTE ] that's assuming zero income. if the cubs turned into a world series team in 3 years at the cost of what the yankees paid plus more, there would be a significant profit.

[/ QUOTE ] I realize it was a setup for your Marlins joke, but I'll address it anyway. You're assuming no income. Sure, I'd be spending $300M on payroll, but I'd be taking in a ton of money also. I doubt I'd be losing more than $100M per year. With $10B, I can lose $100M/year for 100 years. (And even that's assuming I have no income at all from other sources).
