Discussion
I dont really have time to write down all the names sooo... yeah! Go ahead and get started!
I would buy one horse and buy a bunch of tack for it, well-fitted and high quality. Instead of building a stable, though, I would pay to board it at another stable and ride it as often as I could. I did the math and this would cost around $215,000.
I'd put maybe, say, $30,000 into my bank account and save it.
Then I'd donate to the animal shelter because they need money right now. I'd also donate to other nonprofits and charities like the Homeless Shelter, the Food Bank, other animal shelters around the country, The Cloud Foundation, etc. Total, maybe $80,000.
Then I'd give some, maybe $200,000 in total, to my family. I'd also set aside some money, maybe 50 thousand, for a big family vacation.
I'd also buy some good art supplies: pencils, paints, watercolor paper, etc. Maybe an art tablet for digital art. I'd set aside $1,100 for this.
Also, I'd buy myself a good laptop that isn't the school's property. Say, up to $1,000. I'd also get myself a better smartphone like a Moto Z Droid, so another $2,000 with accessories.
ALL of that is $579,100.
Finally, I'd use the rest of it to buy BOOKS!!!!
Since I was curious, I went online to find out how much that horse stuff would cost. All of the stuff, including the horse (which I put at $2,000) is just under $12,000 altogether, but if we take off the $8,800 trailer since I'd be using the one my stable already has, that makes the total cost $3,200 including horse. My stable's lease/board rate for a horse that is 'full board', which means they don't make money off of them, like they do with the lesson horses, is around $680 per month, so I'd use some of the rest of the million dollars to board them there.
I'd give some to the church first, then I'd probably use a couple thousand to fly my whole family down to the mid west for a vacation. Then use some of it for my mom's medical bills. And whatever's left over I would donate to CAP AKWG
1. donate 300 thousand to a Racehorse Rehabilitation center or organization
2. Go to/tour around Greece and Italy, Rome, go to Alaska and Iceland
3. Buy several off the track racehorse/tack, grooming supplies/a small barn
4. buy books
5. A nice laptop and drawing tablet
6. buy a awesome cello
7. get several bengal and egyptian mau cats
8. get a few wolf-dogs
9. move to England when i get older
10. save for school
11. own a breeding operation and training funded with some money from the million when older
12. if it permits, own a bird of prey when older
13. buy good art supplies
14. the rest goes to family and several animal donations
wolf dogs?
huskies?
if you don't live in the snow, what is the use of dogs?
i don't like dogs tat muchXD
As a 'pet' If I owned a farm i would just let them roam around provide they stay on the farm. Also, Alaska's really cool and I might want to live there. Theres also snow half of the USA top half well mostly. NY has snow every winter, having two snowdays where I live is a little remarkble. Might have one tomorrow, had one last friday. never used to get snow this early, I mean Usually the beginning of December but once we had one in October and once in June. Very odd xD. Horses are better but some dogs i like im very particular. Everyone to their own.
@Scipio I should probably worn you about 2 things:
1. Huskies are about the worst dogs to have on a farm. Especially is that farm as chickens.
2. Snow is great and all, but is also comes with sub-zero temps (trust me, going out side at -40 is not as fun as it sounds) and almost 24 hour darkness. From about starting in October every year and lasting till May it's like that.
@Dragon I know about the cold and darkness, thanks though! Also the huskies were only an example, I didn't put it on the list.
Did someone just say they DON'T LIKE DOGS??!
I love medium sized dogs
1) I would give about $100,000 to different charities/animal shelters
2) I’d give about $40,000 to the Church
3) I’d give around.... $50,000 to our farm
4) I’d put $400,000 in my bank account
5) I’d save about $50,000 for a family vacation
6) Save $20,000 for touring the U.S. (And definitely Alaska. Probably not Hawaii)
7) Build my dream home!!!
8) Save the rest of it or else I’m gonna go broke lol
