3,830 Lamborghinis - Want to get a brand new Lamborghini for all of your closest friends? With that much money, you could do that and still have Lamborghinis to spare.
Unlimited nights living in luxury - With this kind of dough, ABC News reports, you'd have enough money to spend nearly 150 years on the 50th floor of the Four Season Hotel New York, which costs a measly $30,000 a night.
