Here's a more interesting way of looking at things:

If you had $1,000,000, what would you do with it?

We all know investing is the wise, financially sound and clever thing to do. But you can't! (don't ask me why, just makes for a more interesting thread)
So, what would you do with a million dollars, if you weren't allowed to invest it?

It's funny how much easier it is to think of ways to spend money, than ways of earning it.

I would put it on my bank account probably. I don't think I would spend it right away, my next school will be expensive and I don't want people to know that I'm rich.

Work until I was 30 years old then retire early. (By living frugally you can easily make a mil strech. :D)

Also, I'd invest it into gold instead of sticking it in the evil banks.

5,000 dollars isn't going to get you a decent car and you can't invest it. Try again.

Stash that shit in the Caymans and use some to pay my way through law school. Then I could start making that mad C.R.E.A.M. mothafuckas.

I'd give it all evenly among the poor and homeless families I know, and make them swear by their testicles that it would be used productively.

I didn't earn that money, and for me that is not philosophically sound.

Put 600,000 in cd's. Then take the other four hundred thousand buy a house, and buy WB thus creating another great schism. and a PB (peaceboards!!)

yes, you can get a decent car with 5000 dollars. you just have to find it, thats all.

and talking about the car, i would like to pimp it!, or to buy a car that only uses trash to move, that would be awesome!

I'd start a religion. Call it Slyentology, make big building in the middle of LA and get gullible celebrities to pay me money for hooking them up to a uselss machine and say that the holocaust was invented by psychologists
