A house over a river.

This but at the top of a huge waterfall deep in a forest

Look, you want to buy a massive TV, nice car, nice big house etc. knock yourself out. But when you're spending $1.5 million on a mint condition copy of Super Mario 64, well... I couldn't do it. I'd be literally waking up in the middle of the night sweating about how I could have funded a hospital or something.

I also worry that it's a slippery slope, I mean, one day your just burning £20 notes in front of homeless people.

Tory Cambridge University students 'laughed about burning £20 note in front of homeless man'

The next your burning a million quid for... reasons?

Ha I'd pay an animation studio to make this 5 minute dream video I wish I could make on my own but can't. Cost me a lot, but i'm rich right? why not?

Someone once posted this like 4 foot diameter marble maze sphere that was like 50 grand. I'd get that shit if I was dummy rich.

The most frivolous thing over ever semi earnestly wanted was a lazy river moat around my house that I could just float around in an inner tube in

I would pay Genki Racing Project enough to make it worthwhile for them to make an officially licensed set of decals for each of the "gangs" and wanderers in the Tokyo Xtreme Racer series. Then I would have fun figuring out which of the cars in my obviously very large collection would be part of team Knife and Forks, which would be team Miracle Dogs, etc. (some would be easy gotta get a Dodge Viper for team Thunder Dragoon).

So yeah the cars don't count but the stickers would definitely be frivolous!

I might fall down the figurine rabbit hole, which would collectively add up to way more, but the single most expensive, completely frivolous thing I can see myself buying would be an expensive art tablet with a built-in display. A really, really good one. Which would be frivolous for me because I'm a terrible artist and if I was already wealthy then I obviously wouldn't be drawing for money.

Well, that's what comes to mind at the moment, because right now I'm trying to decide which of a few in the $200 range would be the best.

Oh, I suppose commissioning a bunch of art would count as frivolous, too, wouldn't it? Because I might do that.

Just the lottery?

I'd probably buy a dope vanlife van. All the custom bells and whistles. Always wanted one but even if I could afford one, there's no point if I still have to work.

If I get hypothetical huge money, like billions with a B, I'd buy Fox news and either shut it down or revamp it.

How big is the jackpot?

If I have enough money, I'd like to see how long I could live in a house built just for me, using sustainable architecture principles, that runs entirely on renewable energy. I'm curious as to how that would work, and if I've got the money for it, why not?

I'd be a patron. Give some up and coming filmmakers who I liked a couple of mil each to make whatever they wanted.

I wanted a haunted Irish castle and a cheetah.

And maybe if it's a big enough jackpot, a 1:1 recreation of Walt Disney World's Haunted Mansion attraction.

It's a car, but it's pretty useless, I wouldn't drive it.

Sealed copy of Mario 64, just to make a video of me throwing it into a volcano because sorry but Croc deserved better

Probably getting all the physical individual (not 3 pack) volumes of One Piece. Other then that like I would still buy the video game stuff I already do and owning a house is not really frivolous.

There are several animation cels from the first 10 seasons of the Simpsons I have always wanted. Then I would start a retro games collection.

Depending how much I've won. If it's like a huge amount 300-500M then I'd definitely fund some unprofitable videogames.
