Build a gas firing kiln. Expand my studio. Build a spray booth. Buy a slab roller.
Zee Moola would be gone in the flashiest of flashes. ... Oh, it's less than $10,000 ... dang! I would spend it on clay.

I just wanted to say here that my friend is really impressed with akaQA.
I have always liked it too. : ) THANK YOU, ROMOS ...and julie and Ben and Ducky.
I was thinking of telling my friend to safety pin all of it inside her long flowered skirt but I wasn't sure a safety pin could go through a bill. It would be a very strange way to spend the day. And besides that holes in bills could make them null and void.
I would call a financial advisor and then take my time in making a decision. I am cautious with money and would never think of going on a wild spending spree.

It was truly snobby experience and I do not intend to ever attend high tea again. It was ridiculously expensive. We could have had a steak for what we paid. (I don't eat steak but you know what I mean)
Green paper slips look remarkably nice when used as wall paper, artfully arranged. I did a bathroom in currency , Wish I had kept the photo. A friend bought a million dollars in shredded currency from the US Mint for $10.00 and used it as packing for Christmas gifts. Not all money is like US dollars. Other countries have their own currency and often it is quite colorful. I would like to see more currency from other countries being used here in the US for purchasing foreign imports here and decoration of course….some colorful paper has such a low value here that its use in decor would be quite reasonable, considering the cost.

A few days later:
I take that totally back. I worry.
Buy the motorcycle, give a small amount to each son, invest balance in something California and federally tax free, with cash dividends received monthly.
Oh, there are a few charitable donations to make.

terryfossil: Yes, I've thought of this. It's "safely" in stocks and a nagging bill is paid off. In reality the amount was rather small (to the most of you)
For us ...
I'm trying to think of the rock song that has lyrics "your money for nothing and your checks (or chicks) for free" It's Dire Straits ... Name That Tune!
