You get $1,000,000 to spend but only on things starting with the first letter of your name. What do you buy?

Was going to say the same but I think we're out of luck! Even the old CCX's that used to be about 600k a few years back have surpassed $1m. The super car market prices are outrageous lately!

After the mansion, I don't think you will have enough left over for the cars.

Currency. Then I could use that to buy whatever I want.

Brilliant response.

$1M doesn't go as far as it used to so B = 'blue-chip' stocks and books (first editions by famous/favorite authors).
