A million isn't that much?!

Taxes make it not that much.  Granted, it's still pretty good walkin' around money, but it's not that big of a deal any more.

Do you think I could ebay myself (or Reese) off for a millioon dollars?

I'd buy a 1 bedroom coop or condo in lower Manhattan. Then I'd put the other $2k in an IRA.

But don't worry Eric, you can send out those emails without the money! Email is free. Almost, anyway.

Ok Theta, I always knew you were egotistical, But worth $1,000,000?
Let's see, The average hooker is about $50. so that is 20,000 tricks I could buy.
20,000 / 5 (I would die at sex 7 days a week) = 4000 weeks of sex.
50 weeks a year (I need vacation too) means 80 years.

I am 38 now, and will probably not be functional sexually at 118 years old....

Do you cook, clean, mow the grass, wash the car, do windows and babysit as well?

Sorry, Just had to do that :-P

Umm... I do all of the above...I also give a great blowjob... Can I have a million dollars now?

Do I get a blowjobs on demand?

Besides, I already said in another thread I was saving up to bid on you (c:

  Because I could ebay myself...

Wait,  I need a million dollers first.

I need a million dollars too...  You go ebay yourself... I was mine before I met you...

Not good to explain things but I WOULD bid a million dollers for you if I had it.

This Evil island idea is going to be expensive but I see with your writing, not without it's rewards.

My dad used to tell me... "Find yourself a rich old man with one foot in the grave, get married, and then give him a push..."

I was on the right track until Anna Nicole Smith stole my boyfriend...

If I had a million dollars I'd buy a 32Megapixel camera and a copy of Photoshop CS instead of elements and then I'd get a PAY WEBSITE going and all the chicks would be LINING UP to do TFP with me! YEAH!

The best you're going to get on a million dollars right now without risk is about 2.5%. You can do around 6% if you want to invest in corporate paper, but that has some risk.

You can get upwards of 12% to 15% with points if you broker through a hard-money lender secured by commercial real estate.

In all cases, however, you're going to be paying short-term cap gains taxes, so that $50,000 you speak of gets eaten before you're even out of the gate.

A million isn't that much if you want to live off of its revenue, unless you're living the frugal lifestyle. You can realize about $35,000 of it per year after taxes. Ballpark.

I would expect $50K to $75K after takes, but that's just me.

You have to give her [Alexandra] credit... She has her own unique character and is a perfect stereo type for the forum... It's as though we have our own little sitcom going on here...

I'm not worth a million dollars? What about my biting wit, effevescent charm, ability to multi-task and excellent organizational skills?

*sobs*

If this place is a sitcom, I want to be the wacky, mad-cap neighbor.

In that case... You'll need a bigger expense account, I'll give you half the money - but don't blow it all on the cats...

No promises. I've had my eye on some of the more elaborate sissel furniture at PetCo.

'If I had a million dollars'?... I wouldn't change a thing... I'd be doin EXACTLY what I'm doing right now... holding photoshoots with fineass models... going to acting workshops in Hollywood... organizing Model Mayhem network parties (like the one coming up July 23rd)... why you ask?... there's something about meeting new people that thrills me... far more than anything all the US currency on the planet could do.  You are reading the post of a person who possesses a wealth beyond his wildest dreams.  For when you have all the money you need, you step back, look around you, evaluate what else it is (besides the money) that enriches your life.  To me, its all about having the time of your life with your loved one, and all the friends you make.  For when 'judgement day' comes, it won't be 'the money' that those who shared your life will remember.  But more so, those fun times and lasting memmories, that unlike money, you can never lose, or have taken away.     

The feeling is mutual. How candidly you have made your comment. IF I had that much money I would help my parents out with their bills, set money on the side for college and of course.............SHOPPING!!!!!!!!!!! smile)))))))

also do you mean cash or net worth?  having a net worth of a million or more makes you a "millionaire" but it sure doesn't mean what most people think it does.
