    Neither of those: my name is not that unique (nor is his) and I get sea sick so boats are never going to happen and just because you have money doens't mean you should fritter it on worthless crap which highlights the fact that some people have far more money than sense. I, of course, would simply buy a solid gold Rolls Royce Phantom... :-)

          If you were crazy wealthy which would you do? a) Buy a gold plated yacht[^] b) Hire a construction crew to dig your name into the sand of your private beach so that it's visible from space[^]

              Which one? There were two Erikas [at the same time] that I dated. I referred to them as Little Erika and Big Erika. Guess who had the hooters?

                                  I’ll spend every penny in research labs for: 0. More efficient nuclear reactors or even better Thorium reactors or fusion based such. 1. More efficient batteries. 2. Space engines based on plasma/fusion materials not the current unusable for space exploration/mining chemical rockets. 3. New foods. 4. Will buy the old Privateer franchise and will create Privateer III super game hybrid between Privateer and Mass Effect. 5. Medical researches. 6. Extremely efficient and fast trains and catamaran passengers super ships. 7. Babes. 8. Babes. 9. Women. The last three are going to be a personal research projects – highly funded.

                                      Google images, safe search off, Big Erika and Little Erika could not possible yield more different responses. I can only conclude that Big Erika was filth.

                                        I’ll spend every penny in research labs for: 0. More efficient nuclear reactors or even better Thorium reactors or fusion based such. 1. More efficient batteries. 2. Space engines based on plasma/fusion materials not the current unusable for space exploration/mining chemical rockets. 3. New foods. 4. Will buy the old Privateer franchise and will create Privateer III super game hybrid between Privateer and Mass Effect. 5. Medical researches. 6. Extremely efficient and fast trains and catamaran passengers super ships. 7. Babes. 8. Babes. 9. Women. The last three are going to be a personal research projects – highly funded.

                                          You could do b) with little more than the funds to buy some weed killer and a spray bottle. Find your nearest large open space and voilà

                                          Or some killer weed and you'd at least think you could see your name from space.
