The answer: a stay at the multi billion dollar space hotel.

The Galactic Suite Space Resort is bound to open in 2012, and a stay in it is reported to cause 3 million euros or approximately $4.4 million dollars.

So what does your $4.4 million dollars get you?
You get a three night stay at the hotel where you can see the sun rise fifteen times a day (think of it as experiencing fifteen days in one day!! :) )
You also get to travel the world every eighty minutes, and wear velcro suits so you could stick yourself into the walls o your pod rooms.
You also get to stay on an eight week training course held on a tropical island.

So, does that sound good for $4.4 million dollars? At least 43 people think so - they've made reservations already!

If I were a billionare, I might do it, since $4.4 million would be a drop in the bucket.

4.4 million bucks is a nice chunk o change and would certainly change my lifestyle.

But I still wouldn't be flying first class.

Actually, I think the $4.4 million is just for the training course and the stay on the space pod. You have to pay for transportation to the space hotel, which costs another whopping $200,000.

I certainly can think of other ways to spend money.

I would buy a house and build my own home movie theater and library...I would stock the theater with every great movie I've ever seen or wanted to see, and the library with all the books I have read or want to read.

What would I do with $4.4 million? That is a good question. Based on my life expectancy, I may buy an annuity that would give me a set amount of money to spend each year. Like Lvdkeyes, I would travel the world and see if I am able to spend all my yearly allowance. Might be fun giving money away and see how many lives might be changed for the better.
