        That's a good interest rate. Which bank?

          It would allow me to start my own college or something. Which could be cool.

          Other then that, I should give the money away far before I make a billion.

                    I think all said and done you could get a core group about 30 people who would include most of each others loved ones.

                      No matter what, people are going to get left behind. I only love four people, and none of those people are family members, but I can't say the same for those four that I love.

                        No thanks. I'd miss my wife and daughter. Also, in 150 years this place is going to be a hell hole.

                            Exactly! And won't that be fun to see? Or maybe Skynet will have taken over. Exciting!

                                Of course not! Life is not the money you have, it's the ones in your life.
