Hmmm, let's see...

1) Enough non-perishable food and bottled water to last for six months
2) A rifle and a sidearm, with several clips worth of ammo for each
3) Several forms of falsified identification (passports, drivers license, etc)
4) Maps of every country in the western hemisphere
5) at least 30 gallons gas placed in cans
6) $20,000 in gold
7) A box big enough to fit all of the above

Anything that's left over I'll just place in a savings account.
What exactly are you planning to do, and can I get in on it?
Well I got the box just so everything would be in one place when I buried it all in my backyard.
I figure one of these days society is gonna end or the federal government might be after me for some reason, so I figure better to have this stuff and not need it, than to need it and not have it.

Well buy a computer, pay for college, get a bank account, pay off all the games I want at my local Gamestop, then give a large sum to Childs Play. The rest would be put into my new bank account.

I wouldn't do anything with it because then people around me would know that I had $50,000 laying around just waiting to be spent. Although I would spend some of the money on a new car and maybe buy some other luxeries. Most of it is going straight to the bank as well as investments while I try to hide it from my peers as much as possible. My reason for this is that the majority of people that know me will, even subconsciously, think that I didn't deserve the money, or I'm being selfish, or just being envious.

50 grand is nice way to pay for college although assuming my parents are still paying for that, then I could spend it on maybe my first house or even grad school. Sorry various charities, it may appear selfish to not donate to anyone, but in my defense, it is selfish.

Wooh. And I was worried about those student loans.

Thank you Mr. Thompson. You aren't such a bad guy after all.

As for me, I would donate most of it to Child's Play, just to see his face when he sees his money go to buy video games for kids (of course, I'm assuming he doesn't know that CP donates age appropriate video games).
thats just what i was thinking... although, i would keep a few thousand for myself with which to buy violent video games only. just to be funny :p

Unfortunately, I need money for boring things like food and rent, and since I still haven't got a job, I'd be keeping that money in the bank, at least until I had found a job or something.

Same thing that happens with most of my money: Give it to my parents. Simple enough.
