Buy a few rolling acres with a cabin on the top of a hill and build my own little three hole track with a 3,4, and long 5 par.

Expand my portfolio sufficiently.

Buy my folks a place in the tropics.

Give my girlfriend a dream wedding.

Get a ridiculous tattoo removed.

Give the rest to charitable organizations. Bill and Melinda Gates seem to have their act together.

Take care of family, friends, church and charities. Buy a golf course and make it affordable for kids, seniors, and the less fortunate to play. Seek out those who are truly in need and annonymously give them a million dollars like the old "Millionaire" series of the 5o's or 60's. I would like to keep this good fortune a secret and live a "normal" lifestyle. Lastly, I would like to try to eradicate hunger throughout the world.

I think I would go crazy with too many possessions to look after and too many things on my plate, but of course I would "splurge" some at first.

I've never really thought about it real specifically...

But off the top of my head...

Muscle car of some kind.

Take care of the family and close friends and anyone else I felt really deserved it. I'd have to think about how and for whom I wanted to do this.

Invest a bunch no doubt. Live very, very easily off the interest.

I hate extreme excess so I wouldn't want to flaunt or abuse the wealth. I'd do all I could to manage all the attention and maintain some normality.

Do all I could to not be seen by people as just some "rich bastard." One more reason to share it...

Make some donations to key charities and causes and also figure out some other ways to worthwhile spend it.

Spend money to support and empower anyone who I thought truly knew things and had special things to share. Knowledgeable people in key areas.

I'd help out my home course probably.

Go get my septum de-deviated. (for real)

I would spend a lot of time golfing and for something to do and to be around people I would still probably want to do some golf teaching...

Travel, no doubt. NO, LA here I come. Play Pebble, St. Andrews, etc. etc. etc. blah blah blah eventually.

Throw Faberge eggs at someone's house. (they would have to be a rascal)

Butt implants.

(just joking my butt's fine)

I wonder how fast you could burn through 100M? Probably wouldn't take long I guess. Buy Oprah's house and you're over half way there.

Hmmm,

I'd help out those in my circle that needed a boost and donate a bunch to causes.

On a selfish note:

1. I'd buy a couple cool cribs for the seasons. One in Toronto (I'd join the National) and one in Palm Desert (I'd join the Madison Club). Mexico too.

2. I'd play a ton of golf and likely, since I don't need the bread, become a college coach somewhere and work with guys and gals that want to get better and put in the time to get results.

That's about it.

Hmmm

Well, 1st off - the leaders of the Make A Wish foundation would faint after getting a 20 million dollar check - I can't think of anything worse than terminally ill children. Then a good charity helping emotionally disturbed children ( something I have personal ties with ) would get a big chunk of change! After that, I would make sure myself, family & friends would be taken care of - but not too much! Then, I would find the best therapists I could, make sure my back is better, and play more golf than anyone should - in a warm climate;)
