    All this talk about Millsap's HUGE upfront payment of 10 mil, has got me thinking. Millsap made peanuts (relatively) last year, $700k, I think. But once the Jazz match he gets 10 MILLION DOLLARS CASH within a week.

    WTF do you do with that, what would your first purchase be. Can be safe investment, splurge, crack and hookers, whatever.

    I'd put down on this, and request teh seat be custom molded to my ass

    Somewhere in this world Paul Millsap must be giddy like a school girl waiting for that big check to arrive.

    but seriously, I'd probably do a "I'm gettin' Paid" party in Vegas with some homies. Bottles, blow, hookers, etc...all the usual stuff.

    but if I was in the NBA, I'd probably stay away from the yay.

    I would seriously rig my house to be off of the grid as far as electricity and such and buy as much food as it would take to last me the rest of my life. Then I would build a giant wall and security system on my house with cameras on machine gun turrets.

    That would be a good start. I wouldn't pay off my mortgage, I would wait until hyperinflation comes around and pay it off with some proceeds from selling some of my food.

    Redundant, I would say. With this amount of money you can get one good set instead of the cheap stuff from Crazy Bob's surplus and sheep shearing emporium.

    I'd buy houses all over P-Town for my family and friends! And get a lap dance from BeerBoy's wife!

    That's too dark for VB, but man that beer is mother's milk! When I lived in DC I became friendly with a guy who worked at the Australian Embassy. When he found out I had been to Australia and I loved VB, he kept me neck deep in that stuff for years.
