      why do you need all the money in the world to buy one thing? I really can only buy one thing right now, and its going to be milk.

    I would assist all Americans who are struggling and buy back all of the property that everyone worked so hard for and give them free and clear title and deeds not including any vehicles lost. smile

    You said all of the money in the World so it is one big American family. smile

    I would buy the world's largest and most profitable business. I then would take it private, and use all of the profits to do all of things the other posters have said. (And a few more...!)

    I would buy the best big helicopter and hire me a crew then fly all over the globe and drop money to all those who don't have any. That would be everyone else as I had all the money in the world. I would make everyone a millionaire.

          lolol ralwus - she's almost totally repsonsible for some of the horrible situations I've found myself in down the years. I suppose the easiest way of helping her would be to buy her a conscience big_smile

    I am a bird freak so I'd love to have Avian Wildlife Refugee for to restore and set free injured birds of sorts, and care for those that can't survive outside.

    Money for my dad so he could retire from his hectic job, and like many folk in such a situation buy some nice crap I don't need and put the rest in savings.

    Oh, wait...I have all the money in the world so what's the point of saving...

    A giant woodshop so I could work out there whenever I wanted.  Actually, that is kind of selfish.  I would just want to pay off my house and get my kids through college.  Maybe help my brothers and sisters do the same for their kids.
