What would I do?

Well, first, I would spend some on it to make my biggest dreams ( like traveling around the world ), and dreams of my Family come true..
With the rest of it, I would by houses, and then re- sell it, to gain extra money....

After that I would buy actions of some companies and go to retirement in 20th...

I'd purchase germany (for the autobahns and the nurburgring)
Volkswagon (plus all it's subsidiaries, porsche, audi, lamborghini, etc), nissan(to ensure production of the s16) and toyota.
And i dont know how much money i'd have left after that but i'd buy a gigantic shed to fill with rare and beautiful cars, and a small easy-going race track next door to it (nurburgring is hard and demanding, so i wouldn't want to risk destroying a rare car on it)


the rest would probably go to fuel.

Money is pretty combustible.
It would be a good source of fire.
I would have a life-time supply of warmness and light.

now isn't it nice to dream?

Partially depends on how I get such money. Likely hire a lawyer and get in touch with my financial adviser regarding the windfall. I'd expect previously unknown "family" and "friends" to come out of the woodwork like gorged termites. And, of course, the IRS.

After that, spend a good chunk of what's remaining on my friends and family who could use the help, and leave the rest to investments. Of course, there'd be funds left accessible for myself so I could live financially independent for the rest of my life. Wouldn't even need US$32b, US$500k would be sufficient.

32 Billion DOLLARS is a big sum of money and even if I do give out 1 Billion for my loved ones and for charity, I'd still have 30 billion left to spend for myself right?

The only things I could think of is to save half of the 30 billion and spend the other half to all my likings (i.e. manga, anime, house, dresses..other stuff). :3

Spend 31 billion dollars to develop a self-improving, multi-purpose machine intelligence, then turn 500 million dollars into 32 billion using the stock market and my superintelligent machine. And then I would take over the world (muahahahaha).

Share it with loved ones. My first thought was to spend it on myself because that'd be the common thing to do having won a lot of money, but I thought about the amount again, and it's just too huge for me to hoard. :| I'd share it with loved ones and use it for things I perceive as good.

In the end with such huge amount of money you can do every thing your heart desires and you would probably still have a lot of money to spare.

I'd probably pick up my girlfriend, and we'd move to Ann Arbor until she finished school, then we'd probably move to Japan and I'd buy a new Mac and recording equipment/software so I could start making music again (properly). Then, I'd spend a lot of it on her and her family. If we didn't move to Japan, I think Iceland would be nice.

32 Billion?

Hell even if he meant million I suppose the answer is mostly anything I damn well felt like.

I would need 1 million to be set for life. After than I am liking giving the rest to friends and family. Hey, after you are set for life, why worry about the rest of the money eh.

But 32 Billion, I think most of you likely have not considered how much daily interest is involved. Good luck being even able to spend it fast enough to get rid of it eh.

Lets see, I could buy my entire home town and change the name for instance :)
While not technically anime, currently I am a big fan of Hatsune Miku.
At least I can go see her in concert.

32 billion? That's quite a bit! Well, I guess I make charity my first priority. Then help out my family and friends. Got family in a crappy country. Then, I'd still go to college but could focus on a degree without thinking of the cost for so many years. Need a new house with a nice big library for just my anime stuff. Go to a lot more conventions. Visit Japan more often. Save up the rest for whatever else I come up with in the future.

I would probably try and fix english anime and manga by buying the companies. Get everything decent translated, properly, with good dubs. I would most likely try and get anime on most british tv channels and basically I would also be getting any anime or manga I wanted. Though I would probably have to deal with illegal translations, I'd probably have the first volumes online anyway.

I'd probably give gradually pay off third world debt (gradually because it's not good to just give them power in one minute - I'm no heartless as much as to not give medicine). Give to family and such.
I'd get an awesome tv, a house big enough to deal with anime collections probably some games. Hell, I'd probably be about 29 st, (22 st heavier than now) because I'd be lazy if I had a job as awesome as picking anime to be dubbed.

I'd organise the worlds biggest underground martial arts competition.

Then, after making another couple billion off of that. I'd wait a few years.

Then I would commission Ken Akamatsu to draw up the entire plans to Mahora Acadamy from Negima.

I would then build Mahora Academy.

Followed by the inn in Love Hina.

And then, with the money I still had left from interest.

I'd buy Belgium.
