What would you do?

Interesting thought...I'm grateful I don't have to deal with that kind of coin. But, if I did, my layout would only be an expanded running loop with a 36" minimum radius, 3-4 tracks wide, with plenty of under layout storage tracks...I'm just not that interested in building some well scenicked empire as I am being able to tinker with locos and run massive 100+ car freights for the sheer thrill.

Massive influxes of cash into the ministries I regularly give to would ultimately destroy them...there is however, a church down the street whose mortgage I'd buy, just to boot the pastor and board of elders out into the street, then turn their building into a private Christian academy for grades 1-12...ornery, yeah, I know .

I'd start a round of real train shows---not for profit, free admission, open to all who want to sell trains and set up layouts---where I can bodily toss out any maggot who tries to sell a Tyco boxcar for $10 or a used Rivarossi steamer as a "rare" collector's item.

While it's nice to ponder such things, history shows that that kind of coin generally doesn't bode well for those who get it---so I'll pray that one of my family members hits it, sose I kin gits a little sniff of it...
