[quote=Anonymous]In the other thread people mostly talked about the stuff they wouldn't buy regardless of wealth. So now let's switch back to the kind of stuff we would say when we were twelve along the lines of "if I were a billionaire" but with the perspective of an adult. I'll start: I would start a number of very rigorous, tuition free child-centered 6-12 schools based on competitive but holistic admissions. Legacies not considered for admission unless the alumns tithe to the organization that supports the school. The curriculum would differ markedly in some respects from that offered at exisiting schools, public or private. I would endow another university like the Cooper Union. I would wage selected battles aiming at sustaining biodiversity in critical areas, promoting zero-waste management, and the development of sustainable communities. I'd probably buy some stuff too, although I haven't given it much thought. Your turn.[/quote]
