What would you do with 7 Billion dollars?

Well, I'd be boring and dump that 7 billion into a high interest savings account with my bank. Then I'd arrange for half of the interest to be deposited into my normal savings account at the end of each month (to spend as I wish) and for the other half of the interest to sit in the high interest savings account with the 7 billion.
Doing that, I'd be slowly but surely making money, thus more interest, and thus have more and more money to play with at the end of each month. I have absolutely no goddamn clue what I'd buy with all that, but I sure know how I'd make it last.

Get my parents a nice retirement home
Buy my ass a vacation home or two
Buy things off my top 10 must haves list
Invest in the best high interest rate CD I can find and put the rest in the bank.
That is my plan with any large amount of money I would come across. The top 10 list get changes depending on how much I got.

Wow. I'd buy so much weed you honestly don't even know. I've been around bricks and bricks of it but I'm thinking bigger. I want so much weed that I'll have to have a section of my house just for storage. Then I'd create a room that does not let air escape and has a fire pit in the middle and just throw weed in there and get high as fuck from breathing.
Also I'd buy weapons out the ass. Illegal black market shit.
and I'd outline my house with mines and have only one path to come in and out.
Suck it gov't.
EDIT: I have no idea why people are "investing" 7 billion dollars? You think you can spend that much in your lifetime? You think it'll suddendly dissapear? No. Enjoy that theoretical money.

Well, if I throw that in the bank, even with the crappy .05% interest rate that a savings account yields, I'll be receiving a 7 figure sum every time that interest accrues. That's enough to live comfortably, and (probably) hire Bruce Campbell to be my personal sidekick full time. I honestly can't think of a better way to use that money, unless it's possible to teach penguins to be butlers.
I'd hire top scientist in almost every field, buy an island outright (Maybe Guam) declare myself an independent nation and give the scientist pretty much unlimited freedom with their research. See if I can make human augmentation a reality. Build spaceships that are worth a damn since our governments seem to have lost interest in it. A utopia of science and technology. Oh the things I would do...
Become a producer and get high-quality miniseries(es) made of Anne McCaffrey's Harper Hall trilogy and Ursula LeGuin's Earthsea series. I would make sure I had as much creative control as possible, especially over the Earthsea series so that I could finally ensure that the cast is all dark-skinned.
7 billion?
1: Pay off all current debt
2: Quit Job
3: Pay off Parents' and immediate families debt
4: Buy a LARGE chuck of land. Preferably near a big city but outside the city limits
5: Build a large house/small mansion for myself
6: Buy an awesome car
7: Build multiple houses on my LARGE chuck of land
8: Invite my closest friends to live in my housing complex, free of charge.
9: Deposit $1 Billion into a bank, to live off the interest
10: Donate the rest to family/friends/charities/random people
11: Live life 'normally' afterwards.
By 'normally' I mean, I would try to continue to live as I do now, however I would probably have a lot more video games/movies/music/whatever to occupy me, and I will probably NEVER be bored again. But I wouldn't go out and go spiraling out of control just because I have lots of money.

Maybe, I would buy a medium sized island and start a sovereign nation. I really don't know what
I would do.
I would do.
First, I would use 1.8 billion of it to buy the New York Yankees and then run them into the ground, I'm talking about starving them of funds so hard that they won't be able to field a team good enough to beat the Baltimore Oriels[footnote]if you don't know baseball, the Oriels are one of the worst teams of the current era[/footnote], I would then dump the team for something far less than I payed for it. Then, I would buy the Seattle Mariners, and help them become the best team in baseball. After that, I would buy a regular house that isn't super big or anything, I'm not big on the big mansion idea, I just want a place to live like a normal person. Of course, I would go and run for political office, I like the idea of being able to represent my state and helping the country as a whole.
I would also lobby for higher taxes on the rich.

Build the biggest goddamn pillow-fort you've ever seen in your life.

Unless they know the password, which is gorilla.
