Anybody remember this board game? Or Monopoly? One of these games has a card or a space where you land on it and get free money. Now when I played Monopoly, it was a pittance, like $100 out of the "Community Chest" -- which must have seemed like a fortune during the depression, when the game was developed, I believe. The Game of Life was more "realistic" in that I believe you got thousands of dollars instead.
So let's say you suddenly get a windfall of $50,000 -- like in the Game of Life. What would you spend it on? That's a lot of rockets. Although if you're doing high-end HPR, that's not even enough for a Karman-Line attempt, but you could put on a really good show at LDRS with that kind of cash. But regardless, just to start an interesting wish list, because it's not quite like winning the lottery, but at the same time it's enough to get a nice car and still have enough left over to buy gas.
So, what would you spend it on?? Discuss!
