1) I would get all of my Quartz friends (and a few other friends) to get a week of vacation that they had, the same week, and bring them, their spouses and children down to Disney World for a week, covering airfare, hotels, park passes, and spending money. Basically, a big Quartz fest for free at Disney World.
2) I would buy the top-of-the-line Mac with all the accessories.
3) I would buy season tickets for the Boston Red Sox and the Carolina Hurricanes.
4) I would donate to the Connecticut Children's Medical Center, particularly for psychiatric services.
5) I would go back to Ireland and England for at least two weeks per city.
I know. Kinda selfish.
(Sorry about the first message. That came from another account that I log into.)
1. After appropriate preparations and study, I would launch a charter boarding school that serviced grades K-12 and immersed students in libertarian philosophy throughout their education. I think it would make a mint.
2. I would set aside $10M to fund a technology startup. The company would hire (or try to hire) 15 really smart, imaginative, cool people (starting with several folks I already know) and give them three years to come up with a product or service that stood a reasonable chance of becoming profitable. Interns would be drawn from the senior class at the charter school. ;)
3. I'd buy either a minor league baseball or a minor league hockey team, rename it something cool, and move it near me. :)
1. Endow a scholarship at my undergrad alma mater for people who are interested in the arts and engineering or computer science (double majors or major/minors).
2. Buy an airplane and learn to fly. Or reverse that order, whatever. I just want to be able to get to the middle of nowhere faster.
3. Hire a personal trainer or three, and spend some time working on getting in better shape.
4. I'd like to say have another baby, but maybe adopt. We'll have to see on this one.
5. Buy a huge telescope and some land to put it on. And put in a landing strip.

4. Buy a condo in downtown Chicago and another in New York City.
