I'd put aside money for rent for a long time.

I'd buy at least one spare car in case of emergency, which sounds insane, I know, but god I wish I could, I seriously really want to have an "extra" car in case mine dies because there's nobody around to drive me except taxis if it gets fucked up... I think I have reactive automobilattachment disorder.

A new computer and an ipod; I fear both of mine might die soon.

Rent a carpet shampooer or somethign to proerly clean both my couches- no need to replace them, they're still good.  but ugly too, so I'd buy slipcovers or even make them- making them sounds fun to me at this point.

A coffeepot, a corck pot, a better teakettle.

An actual DDR-compatible system.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

A lot of good ideas here.

I'd like a big private island, a house with an strong air conditioner, a butler, maid, a private tutor for the baby, a bunch of boats and a race car track with a bunch of awesome cars.

I'd want a research lab and enough land/supplies to build the ultimate smart home that is both energy efficiant, sytlish and weird, plus completely computer controlled/assisted.

Oh and it would have to be in the middle of nowhere as well like everyone else has siggested.  :green:

Nothing wrong with wanting to be in the middle of nowhere.  I, on the other hand, would prefer to be near (but not necessarily in) a large city, so I'd have access to some culture and variety for those times I don't feel like sitting around the house.  The neighborhood would have to be one in which the neighbors mind their own business and don't go knocking on the door without an invitation.  (Of course, I could put a hidden camera near the front door.  Just inside the front door, I'd keep a boom box on a little table with a certain Rick Astley song on the ready, in case somebody doesn't take a hint and leave within one minute.  ;D  I'd need to have a doormat custom made that says "Warning: Uninvited guests will be Rickroll'd.")

Or how about a penthouse plus the 5 floors under it?

That would be one hell of an air-conditioning bill, not to mention the rent.  I think I'd opt for the suburbs.  At least there, I could have a backyard.  Next time I buy a car, I suppose it could be a Prius.  Or if it's a city with a commuter rail system, use that as much as possible.

I'd build a home cinema that was an EXACT replica of the Enterprise-D bridge.

I'd have a larger screen in my home cinema. :laugh:
