Yes, that age old one, journalists knowing how to spend money.
Wait, what?
Wait, what?
Good ruling, what the feck sort of idea is that. That's a pussy idea. This isn't rocket science. My god.
You're confusing journalism with business studies.
I have nothing to lose in that respect. I demand feck all.
I'm sensing Liam feels that he can achieve a victory in this question. Which may be possible, if he was allowed to answer without anybody being able to read it.
Aye I'll win this, although I can't help but think we'll have fairly similar answers.
Hectic, do you want me to PM my answer so you can just do them both together? Or AdZz?

Yeah, I think the quality is already at rock bottom or liquid gold depending on your point of view, dropping is impossible at this stage.
I think you should send it to Hectic Liam, that way there can be no confusion. He's in charge of administering the obliteration and keeping all fair in here.
laim you can pm me your answer
i won't mind taking pain of reading your answer
i won't mind taking pain of reading your answer
i will post my answer tomorrow
feck off tomorrow. Who are you to dictate the rules of this? It's by far the easiest question we've had, and it's going to take you the longest time to answer.
No i haven't even thought about the question
I know it is easy
Its just at present i want to be more in ff plus i may well watch england match
So don't have that much time
I've been thinking about what I'd do for the last twenty minutes, great question.
If Laim posts his answer and TheBest doesn't respond within 10 minutes then Laim gains 5 points. Sound reasonable?
You're on the right track.
So should i stop thinking about football?
Well let's see I felt that TB's comment about drawing inspiration from Dewey was worth 4 pts to Liam, if that is allowed and then Liam gets 5 pts as you suggest....surely that makes the score Liam 9 TB 4......what a turnaround..but who really knows what score Hectic is giving this game so far....
Wouldn't football be part of your perfect life? You could probably buy FCUM for £10m.
No.
Both answers need to go into Hectic first. As stated earlier. If you guys are in any doubts, just relax and wait for word from Hectic.
Good idea Liam, pm me your answers.
TB this is more important than football, answers before or around 12.

I have Liams answer but won't read either till they are posted.
Thus order is restored.
I've just eaten an egg custard reading through some earlier pages. "My God. He's Jesus"

He has £10million and not one penny goes to charity. I don't think that's right.
Both pretty decent answers.
If I had 10mil, I'm not sure I'd give to charities either. If I really cared I'd also donate my time at one and find a project worth aiding. Too much 'admin fee' in most charities.
But, you do raise a valid point and it's a good tax write off.
Both put time into investment, Liam is slightly better in that he is looking to stuff that retains value (gold price, much like all stocks does fluctuate). TheBest went for the property angle which is a good choice, Liam on collectors items which isn't bad either. Both secured some of it in physical assets, as well investment.
It's a tough call.
Edit: just re-read TheBest bit about doing whores, he has to get a few plus points for that

I'm not quite sure why Liam needs an exec box (or two) and a season ticket. With 10 million pounds you definitely have enough cash to make some risky investments. That's what I like about TB's real estate investment. A good housing complex could make you a fortune of money.
Both a bit lacking in depth for me. I think TheBest edges it because Laim wants to give loads of money to a charity who already have more than they know what to do with, and Bestie's investment strategy is better.
STs are unreliable for away games, having two exec boxes would be like having an away ST as well (although I may be wrong).
Also, why make risky investments when you can make safe ones?
Never said I'd give loads, and his investment strategy is worse.
Buying gold at it's current price is only sensible in that you can't possibly lose all of it, but it's value is unlikely to remain at its current high for too long.
An there was no consideration of things such as security when you've a million pound collection of rare watches kicking around etc.

A business could lose all of its value, gold cannot.
True but Gordon Brown sold all the nation's gold reserves at around $250-300 an ounce, for example, where as it's currently worth around $2000 an ounce. So your gold could well lose 80-90% of its value if confidence is restored fully in the economy.
umm yes it can, the price of gold could collapse, it's happened.
Yes but gold will always have a purpose, it will always be used. It could lose value, but it's safer than investing in a company.
It has very little use apart from decoration and a small amount in electronics, it's just traditionally seen as valuable so continues to be so. If you want to buy something useful you want copper, germanium, platinum etc. Metals that are rare and/or very useful. They aren't going to get more abundant as time goes on.
£10,000,000 isn't enough to start going around giving large amounts to charity to be honest. Maybe £100,000 to a charity close to your heart. I certainly wouldn't go around creating jobs for people on council estates, especially those being jobs the council should/does provide.
The fact none of you even mentioned a swiss account baffles me.

You are backtracking, and there was a real lack of depth and specifics in both answers, for all I know you two could of had 3 million and achieved the same thing. I'll do a proper summary a bit later.
The council estate idea is retarded, I have to slip that in quickly.
Invest in gold = Gold price collapses = goodbye fortune.
They fecked it up. They actually fecked it up. The best idea I heard, ironically from thebest, was investing in property (assuming he means in India, not Antartica) because that should be a money maker.

There's so many flaws, they both actually fecked it up. It's about who had the least worst answer now.
