what would you do for a klondike bar...

or a million dollars?

my blog friend lee of pink granite asks:

As the world economy continues to shudder, money is on the minds of many of us. So, tonight I first pose three questions:

What would you do with a million dollars?
What would you do with 10,000 dollars?
What would you do with 100 dollars?

I am fortunate to have regular readers from around the world. So I have re-posed the question in the top three nation’s currencies, at current exchange rates:

What would you do with 1,046,026 Australian Dollars?
What would you do with 10,460 Australian Dollars?
What would you do with 104 Australian Dollars?

What would you do with 503,347 British Pounds?
What would you do with 5,033 British Pounds?
What would you do with 50 British Pounds?

What would you do with 7,937,500 South African Rand?
What would you do with 79,375 South African Rand?
What would you do with 793 South African Rand?

Then, ask yourself, what would you do with those different amounts of money if you couldn’t spend any of it on yourself.

Me? I would take that million dollars, pay off my back taxes, and buy the house that I am living in or the house next door from my landlord. Oh, and the CIA (that’s the Culinary Institute of America) for myself, and something special for my Moo kitty even if he did lick his ASS this morning when I told him I loved him.

$10,000? An offer in compromise to the IRS for my back taxes.

$100? Can you say SPA DAY! I need a massage!

Now for the non-me-me-me version:

$1,000,000? Barack Obama, The ASPCA, Stop Domestic Violence, American Cancer Society.

$10,000? Same as above only in lesser amounts.

$100? This is a hard one. Where will $100 get the most bang for the buck? I think I would find a shelter or something that feeds local people and give it to them.

Your turn.
