What would you do with the Funds ?
  1. The payments would be broken down over a period of 3 years xxx,xxx every 6 months based on performance in your business plan and forecast.
  2. Would you give give a % of you business up to the VC company ?

I don't think you would have much of a choice on this one. If they are giving you $1M, they are going to expect a % share of the business. Especially because this sounds like a new venture.
 
Blow it all on hookers, drugs, and gambling. Then live homeless. Then write a book about how i used to have the big life. Then get on Oprah. Oprah reccomends it on her book club, and....

Many millions my friend... $_$

Could Old Venture ? Why not Could be candle shop in the White mountains with a presents on the internet.
Good product Just needs help getting out there there.

Also funds could be used to expand the business to fill orders ?

Could be a person or a group of persons with some ideas for a new soft ?
 
Well, I'd buy you a fur coat
(But not a real fur coat that's cruel)

{NOTE: I actually can't stand this song...}

Make more money.

Then I'd start up a video game development company and some arcades.

You know what I would do if I had a million dollars? I would invest half of it in low risk mutual funds and take the other half over to my friend Asadulah who works in securities...
 
Let's be honest... $1,000,000 isn't really worth shit these days. Everybody gets so excited about making a million, but in the U.S., it definitely isn't worth what it used to be. I say go to vegas and have fun. Then get back to work.
 
For me, being 15, it'd be a helluva lot, so i'd probly just put it in the bank, maybe invest $50,000 in my websites.
