Friday Five 30 January 2004

Yes, this is a day late. I forgot to do it.

You have just won one million dollars:

1. Who do you call first?

I'd definitely call my parents first. Probably not a good idea, but I'd do it anyways.

2. What is the first thing you buy for yourself?

Independence from my bloody academic loans, that's what!

3. What is the first thing you buy for someone else?

Er, I'd buy the restoration of my father's old 1960s muscle car.

4. Do you give any away? If yes, to whom?

Ten percent to my Methodist church of choice, for use in the local programs where I will have control in the disbursement of the money. I'll not have my money wasted on left-wing social experiments at the hands of the national Methodist establishment.

I'd also try to find someone who I could trust to administer another ten percent in donation to local charitable organizations.

I'd also endow a scholarship at my alma mater, along with putting the cross-country team on a strong financial footing. Perhaps an annuity?

5. Do you invest any? If so, how?

Buy stock in the Norfolk Southern Railway (NYSE: NSC) along with CSX Transportation (NYSE: CSX), and put some money in Lockheed-Martin (NYSE: LMT) & Boeing (NYSE: BA).
