If I had a Billion Dollars

I loved this idea for a post. Thanks to Joy for the idea.
"If I had a billion dollars,
If I had a billion dollars,
I'd buy me a house,
Not one house, but two...."
If I were Oprah rich I would buy a house in Spain, and a house on a ski hill somewhere. It would be so much fun to have a little hacienda that our family could retreat to whenever we wanted to. It would also be fun to decorate a home without worrying about any kind of budget. I know exactly the type of furniture, the decor I would have. It would be gorgeous. A summer home and a winter retreat...how amazing would that be??
Houses aside I would immediately set up some kind of trust accounts for my boys, our nephews and our niece. I'd help out our family and friends. I'd buy my mom a fancy schmancy car that had all the gadgets. That would be my gift to her.
We could travel at the drop of a hat if we desired. I would go to Africa, South America, and walk with my family along the Great Wall of China. It would be amazing to introduce our children to all the different cultures, sights and different walks of faith that our world has to offer.
I would even splurge on some fancy purses (Luis Vuitton, Hermes), some Manilo Blahnik shoes, a personal trainer, the best gym equipment...the list is endless...
Then I would give some money away to help the homeless and poverty stricken people of our country. I'd set up some kind of hot lunch program for our school district so all the kids could participate. I'd also set up a bursary program for hockey and soccer so the underprivelaged could participate.
I'd give money away for cancer research, aids,...
Hey..I'd save the world!
And I'd build the prettiest nicest fence for my husband in one of our new homes.
What would you do with a billion gazillion dollars??
