When I start making millions of dollars, I don't want to end up like Elvis or Billy Joel and get robbed like they did by their business managers. What can I do to make sure that doesn't happen?

Simple, sqaunder the money as fast as you make it. That way you could be like a sports celebrity or Lindasy Lohan.Originally posted by Maister

Cheap hookers and blow.
They can't steal what you've already spent.

Worry that your rights, and freedoms, are being taken away by socialism, which makes no sense, because rights, and freedoms, are taken away by fascism, but assume that redistribution of wealth is bad, and that capitalism, which you like, is not doing an amazing job of doing it, causing an income disparity of epic proportions, supported by red States, that receive the most welfare, which you are also against.

I appreciate the helpful suggestions, but wouldn't retaining the services of expensive hookers be a more effective means of keeping my surplus money out of the wrong hands?
Another thing... you know how they launch communication, spy, gps, weather, and other satellites every day...if they keep doing it for long enough it'll start to block out the sun's rays on the earth's surface. As that occurs, our solar water heaters are going to become less and less effective!

I say get away from the $ standard. When our world ends, you will want gold. Buy tonnes of it, and then build yourself a safe hidden in the ground. Put it all there and spend the rest of your life getting guns and ammo to protect it. Shoot anything that gets near it - wildlife, thieves, children...

Depends on how many hookers you want. Quantity over quality?

Hookers? Isn't that what they call those funny water pipes?

Simple. Invest in a dome. The variety of uses that can come from said dome is greater than one would originally think. Any party members suspected of attempting to steal your money? Encapsulate them in your new dome. Or, in circumstances where multiple individuals are pursuing your money, encapsulate yourself in your new dome with along with your millions of dollars.
Ok, I have to get back to work now.
Buy a cruise ship and convert it to a house. Spend the rest of your days buying enough fuel to cruise around the world. Be sure to stop in Honolulu to pick me up.
No, no, no. Build one humongous pyramid. Your razor blades will always be sharp, food won't spoil, your mental and physical traits will be amplified, and all the money you spend on it will be returned multiplied many times! And that's just the start. Trust me.

Okay, when the family departs for the Med coast during the winter and we close off the south wing of the house, should we dismiss the head gardener and re-hire a new one next year or should we keep him on retainer along with the butler and head maid until our return?
People will miss that it once meant something to be Southern or Midwestern. It doesn't mean much now, except for the climate. The question, “Where are you from?” doesn't lead to anything odd or interesting. They live somewhere near a Gap store, and what else do you need to know? - Garrison Keillor
All the time, when taking a shower, I think to myself "you know, the water coming out of the shower head isn't colorful enough." Leave it to our Chinese overlords to solve that problem.

Keep him around. He did make a lovely topiary of you on the west lawn.

I don't understand. The only shrub in the west lawn is that tall arborvitae that's cucumber-shaped. I'm not shaped like a cucumber!

No not that one...this one:
That must be the east lawn. My bad.

What is a head gardener? Is that, like, someone that grows weed? Or maybe does Chia Pets that look like the president?
