xA is better. That's just a modified version of an old Happy Meal Toy.
Edit: Oh yeah, what I'd do with the cash. I'd most likely invest what I have left over after building a top notch computer. Once that money has added up, I'd buy some massive corporation via the stock market (a hostile takeover) and then live a life of leisure and philanthropy.

I dont like Scions at all. Toyota only made it because they need a younger buyer, because the average toyota buyer is 45..

Ill take a '94 Supra twin turbo any day.

Theres a very good chance Ill be sticking with the toyota family throught my life.
Dad raised me to hate american cars, and I absoultly see why now. Ill buy a scion till I get married, then get a toyota family car, then when im rich and succesful ill buy a Lexus (all owned by toyota)

(Ok, so ill prolly divert a few times along the way, but thats nota bad plan for the moment)

and then a car for bout 20k and a nice computer and i'd invest the rest. Put aside like 300k for college.

Kansas City Sucks (Shawnee Mission born but I escaped at 4)

I would put the 1mil in an overseas trust to hide it from the Govt. that would keep me free from paying %48 or so in taxxes (Poor kids who think they'd only pay 100-150k in taxxes are funny!!!) And BTW 1 time gifts are tax free but only up to $20,000

Then I'd slowly invest in high yield investments... something to the tune of %10 return. Do that for 2 years or so, then set myself up a budget of 80k a year (that lives pretty comfortable in Colorado) Take the spare 40k or so and reinvest it so that I'm always growing.

Then I''d retire, find what I really want to do, be it writing, Art, Couch warming. And I'd do it.

And for the record. Most Millionaires:

Have never owned a suit that cost more then $200
Have Never had a house that cost more then $500k
Have never had a car that costs more then $20kk

Think about it.

And Trigger, where the hell did you go to College? That's alot in student loans...I hope you got at least a PHD with that much in Student loans.

My Wife went to a Private College, worked her way through, Then to Grad School at CSU and we only have 15k in Loans.

Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, "the Harvard of the Skies". I come from a not-rich family, so the burden of paying for my education falls to me. I work for the school and pay for what I can, but I'm not rich either! A good $40K of my student debt is from flight costs alone. After I graduate, I'll be earning a decent penny as an Air Traffic Controller until my debt is paid and I can afford a massive paycut to be a pilot!

Daytona Beach baby! Hopefully that school will be my school in two more years.
