If I won 50 million I would call up a certain someone who delivers a certain adult smoking product and tell him to bring a U-Haul.

Always fun to hear what people would do, but Howard's made me laugh. The strangest though, is HHBH's who if he won the lottery would retreat to a castle in the mountains and surround himself with guns. I mean who wins the lottery and seeks more or less complete isolation from the rest of the world

I thought money and the freedom that it gives, might make him more open-minded and tolerant in general. But based on what he's written apparently not!

With $50 million there are 2 main things I'd do

1 - I'd buy the old lighthouse on the cliffs close to where I grew up on the edge of nowhere. Then it would get replaced with a fancy new lighthouse built in the style of the Planet Express building from Futurama. Still on the fence in regards to making the rest of the place a music studio or a small game development studio.

2 - While that is being constructed I'd commission a custom RV built to look like a pirate ship with at least 1 functional mast/sail that can be raised while cruising through the prairies or other stretches of rural highway while going cross Canada.

I'd continue with the lifestyle I've become accustomed to.

I wouldn't mind. Certain people are fine, but I find the majority of mankind to be distasteful. Not necessarily bad or anything, I just don't like being in their presence.

I wish I had the time to slack, I feel distinctly overworked and always tired.

I don't buy that with you, you're actually far more sociable than you think.

I'm actually a fence sitter when it comes to deciding whether to see the good in my fellow human being or the bad, still haven't decided after all these years of thinking about it.

Certain people in life you make an instant connection with, others it takes time and effort but can often be very rewarding.
