Got the idea from somewhere else to start this topic. What would you do with one billion dollars / euros / pounds.

I'd probably get some computer hardware in the form of a small datacenter

SparklesWell, I'd choose pounds because a billion pounds is more than a billion dollars And then I'd buy a submarine and search the sunken Titanic ship for stuff you could sell on Ebay, then write a hub about it.


A billion pounds and you're worried about selling stuff on ebay....


haha one could probably buy ebay ?

eBay drew a profit of 7.7 billion USD last year and is worth over 64 billion USD. People would kill for a chance to buy it for a billion dollars, not that I ever would or anything >.>

It is an Earth like planet that is said to have life on it...E:g aliens.....Soooo yeah....... It should be fun when they land there


(It can have live because it is the right amount of million-miles distance from its star and it is in the 'Habitable zone' So it might hold organisms that have evolved enough to become human like...Like how we descended from apes )

I'd make sure I had 1 billion pounds because it's worth more than 1 billion dollars or euros.

I'd buy a couple of buildings, (commercial) so that I could be self employed, I'd make sure it'd be something I enjoyed and I'd bring others who enjoy it with me - AKA video making... entertaining... gaming...

Maybe make a youtube gaming network...

Charities.

Bank.

Hmmm... Id take a billion euros, and first of all, the best gaming gear there is.
Im talking about a modded gaming computer, ready for FPS nearly 3000.
I would give 10 million to the poor, 10 million to my parents, 10 million to my siblings,
and the rest I would leave on my account, ready to be spended when I get old enough to get a drivers licence, Ferrari, and a mansion. :>

Buy 3 or 4 GTX 690's to SLI. Get an i7 to go with it. Buy another monitor.

Give the rest to the homeless or something, after sharing with family members.
