Kind of a cliche thread I know, but if you had enough money to blow on the random things you want to buy, what would those random things be.

... Not that I'm the best with money, and even though I should be saving I'll probably end up buying one of these things some time. Or not. Who knows.

I'd also buy an actual desktop get it hooked up to one of these emperor stations

That's all I can reveal to the rich people.

I have a list on Amazon of something like 150 movies I want to buy. If I had the money I'd probably get all of them on Blu-Ray. Also I'd build a new computer, buy a less shitty laptop, and purchase a non-Apple tablet of some kind. I'd also probably upgrade to a Kindle Fire from the last gen model I have.

Now if we are talking stupidly expensive things I'd buy if I had the money to piss away, I'd buy a Ferrari or a Lambo in a heartbeat. Don't even really care what model though it would have to come in black. I'd also buy a Dodge Ram King Cab and put a lift, a push bar, and some offroad tires on that shit, better come in Hemi Orange too because if it doesn't they'll just have to paint it.

Probably some nuclear warheads and the means to deliver them. Also, an aircraft carrier, several jets and helicopters and a crew to keep it up and running. I would also buy(or have a new one built) a space shuttle and a rocket so it could be launched into space, or a space station.

I guess I would probably be some kind of supervillian if I had the money.

My own retirement, for one. Sad And then college, and then braces, and then a new car. After that, everything ever on my Amazon wishlist. And I've always thought it'd be super-cool to own a pair of night-vision goggles, so those, too. And a sword or something! Surprised (I'm still holding on to my childhood dream of becoming a ninja)

Good use of the money for sure. That guy is so not funny he makes Russell Brand seem funny by comparison.

Really? I would probably get a tuxedo, an Aston Martin with ejector seat and all kinds of sweet spy gadgets. I guess if we both come in to some money we'll be getting to know each other pretty well.

I'll send out some beautiful women for you to sleep with on your way to tracking me down. They will have STDs.

This is quickly sounding like something I'd pay to see in theaters.

And a humongous TV to put in it.

I'd buy Canada.

The price is dropping on it right now, right?

I'd have a harem full of well paid sex servants.

If I can't afford that, then a Theater of Magic pinball machine will have to do.

I'd nerd out and have way too many all foil rare Magic decks, obscure out of print Battletech stuff, and probably a small mountain of uber expensive pipes and esoteric imported tobacco.

Basically what I do now, just on a massive scale.

*Edit, if I was super rich I'd buy up all the Battletech IP rights that are currently scattered to the four corners of the world, and buy out Harmony Gold so Battletech can start using Macross / Robotech designs again, and roll out the canceled Mechwarrior 3015, to the grizzled Cheetos spewing cheers of all the grognards. *

Everything sold by the Weta workshop.

AT the actual Weta workshop. After taking the LOtR tour through New Zeland.
