This is after all the normal stuff (house here, at beach, cars, bills paid for us and immediate loved ones plus a huge trust fund for my #1 girl) BUT Then.........I'd host an annual WDW all expense paid trip for top friends and we'd go to different parks each year so then they could use their vacation money they would have spent giving back to someone in need. I will now accept my Good Humanitarian Award and winning ticket please, thank you:)

While I really don't know if I could do the full $1M, I'd like to split this up into several trips.

Trip 1 would be the family trip. This is the trip where I'd likely put us in the Presidential Suite in the Contemporary and put my parents and possibly my brother & family in the VP suite.

Trip 2 would be the girls' trip...as in a group of girls I've worked with over the last 15 or so years. We'd likely plan this during Flower & Garden and I'd be pushing for the King Kamehameha suite at the Poly. It just seems like the right location to drink our way around the MK area resorts.

Trip 3 would be just me & DH...and I want to be in the Steeplechase suite at BWI. This would be during F&W.

If there's room in the budget for any more Disney trips, I'd likely do the park by park world tour...at the very least, we'd hit California and stay at the Disneyland Hotel and make our way out to Tokyo :happy:

Think I'd buy a home offsite and use it as my home base when we visit Florida. Come down several times a year and stay 3 or 4 weeks each time. Visit the Disney parks doing every and anything we chose to do. Invite friends/family to join us. See and do things in Orlando that we've never done.

First I would build my house in Golden Oak so that I am nice and close to plan my INSANELY OVER THE TOP PARTY!!!!! Ok.....So I would have a gigantic party with friends and families, and the top 5 people that like my comments in the WDW Magic family (Hatter, Figgy, and HouCuseChickie are looking good here). I think for about 10 days would be enough, and I would let everyone pick where they want to stay....Mom and Dad will only stay at WL, so I figure everyone has their favorites. Would probably rent out the Italy Isola for one day and set up a buffet for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with an after dinner special desert party to watch Illuminations...(all day open bar as well). I would also have a special character M&G set up with EVERY character they have....I figure for the right amount of money, they will bring out everyone and try to have that for a special dinner at CaliGrill (open to only us) for a special viewing of Wishes. I would also rent out a screen at the AMC DTD for the entire 10 days and show nothing but Disney movies on it 24 hour a day for the entire 10 days. Then I would finally be able to set up mine and DW's dream of a charitable foundation to take under privileged kids to WDW.

I'd be in Bora Bora in one of those huts on the water. But if I did do Disney, I'd book the biggest room in the best resort at ALL theme parks Worldwide!

This is actually my #1 before any of the Disney stuff. Funny, but DH and I (just for the heck of it) were pricing the difference in air between flying to Fiji vs. flying on to Bora Bora. OUCH! But the over water bungalow has always been the dream and I'm not a beachy tropical trip person. :)
