New thread. What would you buy if you had the money?

If I had the money, I would get all my teeth replaced with titanium ones screwed into my skull and jaw.

Eeek!  My mouth's still sore from having four wisdom teeth taken out.  I can't even imagine what the recovery pain from that would be like.


As for what I'd buy if I had the money...

Definitely a house, with a good chunk of the backyard enclosed (in something similar to a pool enclosure, but without a pool) so my cats have a safe place to play in the grass.  Also with a finished basement so I'd have lots of room to work on my special interests.  Also a huge TV and a Blu-Ray player.

A moat might also be nice, almost had one when they dug around the house and then it rained non-stop for 3 days before they could fill it in.

I remember the guy that ran the backhoe saying to me when I was looking at it, "I know what you're thinking, you're thinking what a mess?"

"Nope" I said, "I'm thinking if it didn't go in the basement, some alligators would be nice."

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.

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.")

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.

Large lot of land with a huge fortress in the middle with a surrounding moat stocked with pirahnas.   I would have cows flown in to feed the fish when they were feeding on other things.  In the middle of the fortress (with watchtowers) would be a large house with a great soundproofed entertainment center.   I would have a security center to watch cameras placed carefully around the outside of the fortress, house and lot of land, along with a coordinated security system on 2 different backup generators for redundancy.  The house would have a basement where I would grow weed and there would be an incinerator in the basement as well.   I would have a large collections of weapons of course.   The lot of land would have an electrified barbwire and razor fence and there would be a few trained Dobermans and German Shepards patrolling the property.
