Poll Question:
When I become a Billionaire..

I will try to build a great white castle in the north of sweden, hopefully in the area where it is Night 6 months of the year and day 6 months of the year. It will have massive internet, vast majestic halls, and an apartment building addon for everyone that wants to live there.

After having a team of engineers calculate the maximum tower height in a hard blizzard, I would build a tall tower with a very bright light at the very top, to light up the dark in the 6 month night. Below that and below a shading screen to prevent blinding people, there will be a panoramic lookput point, where people can go and watch the calm of the snow, or the hardships of massive blizzards.

Outside the tower there will be a skiing complex, ice skating (no hockey tho), and dog sled races, as well as an igloo town and an igloo building hobby park. If the climate allows, there might be a smaller Ice castle too, if it is cold enough in the summer to make it permanent. Of course it would be supported by plexiglas to be safe.

In the permafrost below, a massive underground bunker complex will be constructed, with many secret doors and areas, with security clearance levels, but always an array of alarm systems and escape routes if somebody would get trapped in the halls.

From this bastion of human love and compassion, I would run my future company in order to help people all over the world find a peaceful existance experience while they're alive, and make sure that their children can grow up in a place where we'd want them to live.

There'd be HOMM on all the computers of course, and a huge LAN party going 24/7, and a VR chamber for the Vets (no noobs in there)

I think it would be cool. Now I just gotta make my first billions and Im half way there. I hear the first 20 million are the hardest

Responses:
WOW YOU TOTALLY ROCK!! GOOD LUCK!!
I want to live there - it sounds cool
YEACH!! Too COLD!! Build something in africa instead.
Youre nuts

I'll never trust a man who says "no hockey".
If I had a billion, I'd buy Bjorns place and
have a hockey tournament, no Swede's allowed.
They tend to lose to places like Baluchastan
anyways ...maybe that was Belarus, I
forget

I guess I figured it out..

Well, basically, it's ok to have potential and still worry about stuff. In fact, if I was an underachiever (not by choice) I wouldn't have to worry so much about what I should do with my life.

And I guess I wanna build that tower  I think it would be cool. If I get some billions of course, lol. I sure don't have any billions right now

Wish I had some. It would be nice.

You may not recognise this, but the ultra-rich are an overrated minority (that means you Paris Hilton). However, you can avoid some problems that rich people face.

Buy a sports car for racing, a Hummer for offroading and a luxobarge (Rolls Royce or Mercedes anyone) for your vehicles.

Eat only at five star restaurants.

Don't buy too much alcohol, as even the wealthy can get terribly drunk.

These are a few tips if you become a billionaire that would make definate sense.
