    In this part of the globe I would be dubbed a BILLIONAIRE. Our currency is the SHILLING, and currently exchanges for sh2,300= to a Dollar. If I had that amount of money I would use part of it to build a technical school or a polytechnic on the 10 Acres piece of land I own, to train thousands of young high school graduates and drop outs in various technical skills and discipline. Put a few bucks in livestock farming, and consider running for a political office in my country.

            It would be enough for me to retire, I'm that close , but I probably would still work, I love my job and what I do .

                I have a wife and two teenagers. A mil would get me about six months.

                        AMEN !!!!!! Ain't it the truth !

                        But, I agree with DWISE.........It's enough for me to quit...

                        HEY, I'm close to retirement age anyway...put 2/3 into investments, spend a lot of the rest.

                            Or you could buy into the manufacturer and get them to start building them better for techs.
