TWENTY-FIVE BILLION DOLLARS
So look what came in the mail today! Ahh yes, my bloggy buddies! My 25 Billion in Zimbabwe money courtesy of MoziEsme and Operation Love Zimbabwe.
Of course when this arrived there was a lot of curiosity in the house. Everyone had to run their fingers over it. Some giggles and a bit of wondering…’just what would we actually do with 25 BILLION dollars’…if it were true?
After paying off debts, what would you do with 25 Billion? Please share your thoughts!

I would probably go crazy with that much money. Ha ha!

I would not bail out banks, but I would buy my grandmother a vacation home in Germany.

After the kids’ college funds were set and we shared with family and charity, there would definitely be some traveling going on. And maybe a few extra houses in nice locations. But, I swear, we’d still be the same people. It wouldn’t change us at all…

That would be a nice problem to have. I’d have to go in hiding b/c all the crazies and so-called “relatives” would be coming out of the woodwork. LOL! Definitely travel and buy the grandparents their retirements homes wherever they wanted, college funds and then build our church which has been raising money for so long.

Hmm, I could do anything and everything with that amount of money!
But first would be a month long vacation to Hawaii with my whole entire family!

Oh man, I can only dream! After bills, I would set money aside for the girls, for college. Buy a big piece of land, build a house, give money to our family, and hire the best lawyer for my brother. Then I would put the rest in savings.

Wow! That would be a lot of money. First thing I would do is move out of this tiny hole and go back home to the midwest. Then I would set up college funds for all my kids, after doing some research on the market, economy and which banks have the best interest rates. You have to be careful when investing these days.

I would donate all but 50,000,000.00 (Hey I gotta have some to live nicely on,) to make sure all public schools had Montessori education from ages 3 to 6, FREE! And kindergarden was done away with completely, which there would then be no need for anyway. But that’s just me and my wild ideas.

Vacation to Alaska and then give to my kids and grandkids.:-)

I can’t even fathom that amount of money. I can’t even imagine having 50 million. Pay off every debt I and my entire family have. Buy a beautiful home on some land. Set up a trust fund for my daughter. And then travel, travel, travel. Man, I wish.

Oh the possibilities! I wouldn’t even know what to do with 1 million, nevermind 25 billion! I’m guessing I would do a whole lot of donating and traveling though

I like this game! I’d go with the Hawaii vacation for a while. Maybe a life-long vacation around the world – I always wanted to take those lists of “50 things to do on the Oregon coast” etc and actually do them all.
And of course feed all the hungry in the world while I’m passing through.
