Maybe our collective minds can combine to create one genius one? What's the best way to be a billionaire genius? If you could be one, you'd want to do it right, wouldn't you? Maybe some of you would also desire fame and embrace it but I'd want to be descrete. I admire Bruce Wayne for his secret bat cave where he does experiments and studies criminals and science and solves riddles. I wouldn't want a bat cave, but something functionally similar, plus a big hidden airplane hangar for my high tech modes of transportation. A private island would be nice. Anything that would secure my isolation and protection, is important. But never lacking in style and drama. I wouldn't want a big entourage or a group of henchmen even, I'd prefer to work alone, with the occasional help of an understated British companion either male or female, doesn't matter, I'm all about equal opportunity. I'm not sure if I'd be good or evil. I might straddle the line just to be saucy.

Wow, this came up the other day. I would need/want to hire the guy from Mythbusters to be my own personal "Q", but he'd be more like Alfred because he'd have to butle and stuff like get the door. I'd have to have a "Bond" segway with a turbo and a device that shoots marbles out the back in case I'm being chased and a net cannon and a boxing glove on a spring. Plus I'd need a couple of hunky Irish dudes to be security goons and a gay dude to be my decorator and give me fashion tips.

I'd hang around the BBMB all day making stupid posts...snap! *checks own bio* Okay, whatelse can I do? I'll have to give this one some thought.
If it requires thought, I'm not sure you're even capable of being a billionaire genius! How hard is it to think up bullet proof chopper with full wet bar and jacuzzi? I just thought of it two seconds ago and it took nothing at all to do so. I'm eating a cookie whilst typing this AND thinking of stupid expensive dramatic complicated shit like that. The hell is wrong with you?

my billionaire genius product would be a coating that prevented the aging and corrosion of roads, yet still left them with superior traction ability.
i would earn billions becase states would pay me for it and would save trillions on repairs. its a win win situation, and everyone gets out on top

That's why I hate you. I'd be the James Bond to your EVIL billionaire genius, that means you die in the end.
No, you hate me because I ignored you when you tried to be nice to me and draw attention to me, sour grapes.

I'd be the bored rich billionaire genius who causes trouble not out of malice but out of puck-like mischeivous nature resulting from neglectful parents. Until a strong cause comes my way and I feel real passion to finally make a difference and I intervene - for good or bad, not sure really, there is no pure evil or good only different outcomes. Of course, every billionaire genius needs some kind of weakness, fatal flaw, tragic underwear.

I see you as a cat burglar stealing fine art and priceless artifacts from super complicated and extravagant security get-ups like Catherine Zeta Jones in that movie.
And your flaw is of course your hair lip.

The most satisfying thing for me - would be having my father kiss my fucking ass to get some of that cold cash. That alone would be the most gratifying feeling in the world to me. (y)

Damn right - what the hell do you know ?Nothing except you harbor lots of ill will for your dad and get some satisfaction in announcing it to the board.
As a billionaire genius, you could seek help.

I want secret passage ways in my mansion. Like you squeeze the boobs on a statue and the bookcaase spins around to reveal a tunnel that leads to a secret hidden disco roller rink. And I want a rock wall in my house.

You didn't grow up with having my father and I will announce anything I feel like, regardless of your opinion. So go eat another doughnut.

Maybe some of you would also desire fame and embrace it but I'd want to be descrete.

I wouldn't want a bat cave, but something functionally similar, plus a big hidden airplane hangar for my high tech modes of transportation. A private island would be nice. Anything that would secure my isolation and protection, is important. But never lacking in style and drama. I wouldn't want a big entourage or a group of henchmen even, I'd prefer to work alone, with the occasional help of an understated British companion either male or female, doesn't matter, I'm all about equal opportunity.

The things that go on inside your head are truly fascinating :cool: (y)

I need to play "Evil Genius (http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/evilgenius/review.html)" again.
I'd want a huge desk and a big ass cat to pet.
The rest are details.
Oh and buttons, lots of buttons on the desk.

Evil Genius is so much fun. You can use a top down view or zoom into your mineons.
Zooming in on the torture chamber is so much fun. You can see them do michael jackson impersonation to torture prisoners :D

Okay. So besides buying personal hygiene company, this what I'm will start with. I'm going to create "Fantasy Island". I will be Mr. Roarke of course, selfishly fuldilling all of my fantasies for about two years. Then I will open up my island to the dying children so they might now joy before they die Then I would open up islad to the sick...the poor...the retarded...you know the members of this board. Fuck it, y'all can cut before those dying kids, it's not liek they're going anywhere. So "Welcome to Fantasy Island, what is your fantasy?"
P.S. Hey Nuzz, did you notice how I didn't mention you and dolphins? I mean, come on now, "Fantasy" freakin' "Island", and I didn't even go there. Props to me! :D
You went to the island just so you could not mention dolphins and then come back and boast about how you didn't mention dolphins. You know, I saw a dolphin swim like a shark before, flipping its tail side to side. I've always been under the assumption that you can't train an animal to do something it would not be naturally inclined to do under certain circumstances, and training it is simply putting the animal in those circumstances. I wonder if swimming like a shark would be useful in a dolphin's life. That sounds like the metaphor for a new business strategy book...look like a dolphin but swim like a shark. It's sort of like Float like a butterfly sting like a bee...
I'd want a table-top military intelligence style map with little lights on it...and that will just be my breakfast table!

Ooooh, it could have like a strategy for eating breakfast with the item of choice lighting up when the time has come to eat it. You could use onadem casino like items to push plates around.
I'd probably get old episodes of the Jetsons and 2001 Space Odessey and recreate what the future was expected to be like.
with a billion dollars, i'd hire you to decorate my place (y)
that's been a dream of mine too

2. clean energy.
3. give money i earned from clean energy project to the world ( try and help )
