If I Had Million Dollars (Barenaked Ladies)

Here's a fun song that always makes me smile:


Obviously very tongue in cheek, a la Barenaked Ladies' style. Some of the things they would buy "me" with a million dollars:
- A house
- Furniture for that house
- A K-car

Here are some things that are buyable for $1 million:
A Luvaglio London laptop
OR
A Ferrari Enzo
OR
A 19.15 carat diamond


Or, at GlobalGiving, you could:

Provide livestock to improve health and economic prosperity for 100 families still struggling after the 2005 earthquake in Kashmir
AND
Build a school for 300 poor kids in India who will otherwise end up on the streets
AND
Fund HIV education and sports programs for 5000 girls in Zambia
AND
Protect 180,000 square feet of rainforest and plant 6,000 trees in Australia
AND
Provide vaccinations to 5700 poor kids in China
AND
Build a school for indigenous children in Guatemala
AND
Teach 2,000 women refugees in Sudan about their rights
AND
Provide 3,600 former boy-soldiers in Afghanistan with education
AND
Support a year's worth of programming for Katrina kids at the Baton Rouge Boys & Girls Club

WHAT'S THE BETTER INVESTMENT OF A MILLION DOLLARS? YOU DECIDE.
