I would start a business

I'd hire the best bottle hunters, detectorists, antique experts, historical research people, genealogists, that I could find. And I'm sure I'm missing something.

I'd purchase the best vehicles and equipment available.

And "Family History, Inc." would be born. For a small fee, families living on the same ground for generations could hire us to investigate every inch of their property and past.

I'd lose money hand over foot, but I wouldn't care. And paying jobs for people good at their hobby would be created.

I can't think of any material things I really want, so I'd probably divide my riches between St. Jude's Children Hospital and Shriners' Hospital for Children. :dontknow: I couldn't take "it" with me, but I could leave something good behind.

I thought this was a very important issue, so I did a little research on it. :laughing7: Roadquest


This is hear-say, but my understanding is that the "small man" is actually the Mannequin Pis, a brass statue of a small boy taking a "pis." It was purportedly introduced by the artist responsible for creating the illustration when he had a dispute with his employers. The statue is in Brussels, Belgium and the artist was from Belgium, so he was in effect giving a sort of nationalistic salute (even though that was certainly not the intent of the original work). Again, I do not know if this was true or not, but the resemblance is clear.

If I were rich....
First I would take a nice vacation and come back as a walking talking detecting Barbie Doll, with moveable joints that do not get cramps from digging......
then I would buy a huge island (where the ground never froze ) and make it my own private pirates den.....with ships and buried treasure and people could pay big bucks to come and find the buried treasure :-* which they wouldn't....because if twenty thousand Tnet people cant find one,why should some snobby tourist.....

Re: If I Were Rich I'd Buy....

I think I would buy me an Apache helicopter and get trained to fly it by the military. Then I would wake up at whatever time I want
and of course pay off my families bills, buy some houses and cars, take a vacation (will take the Apache,of course :D)

But I would not be like some of those fools that buy gold plated toilets with a roll of hundred dollar bills to wipe my *^^

Well now that I think about it, I'd no doubt give it all to the government to help reduce the deficit.

Let it be written, let it be done :help:
