What if you found ten million dollars ($10,000,000.00)? How would you spend it? - Answers Hit

Unfortunately, if many of today's youth had ten million dollars, I'm afraid they would squander it away on things like fancy houses and expensive cars, up scale parties, boats and SUV's, fine dining, traveling the world, and so forth. Basically they would make their lives a never ending vacation, all the while their bank account is slowly dwindling. Every minute over the years they would be drawing closer and closer to that zero point. By the time they died of old age, they'd probably run out.

The wise thing to do would be to invest the money. Use it to start your own businesses. Its true that starting a business in today's economy can be difficult, especially with all of the big name competitors. But chin up, keep trying. As one venture fails, try another and another, after all you have ten million dollars to invest. Once you get a business going that doesn't tank, invest the rest of your money into nice polo shirts with the company logo on it and clever advertising schemes such as a long banner pulled behind a flying aero plane. This type of advertising can reach tens or even hundreds of people a year.

Eventually your company would become self sufficient and with a little luck, and a lot of elbow grease you'll be able to retire at the nice young age of 55 and move to St. George, Utah to live out your days in the nice warm weather. That my friends is why they call finding ten million dollars "The American Dream".
