You don't think I'm actually going to spend everything do you? Of course not, that will be absurd. What am I even going to buy? π€
Now is probably not even a good time to convert it to fiat (it's definitely not a good time), seeing as the BCH market is down right now and it looks like it will pump on or before December
I am just gonna spend a little from it and spoil myself for once (but not too much). I wonder what I should do first, let me just make a list of the things I will do with the money.
Invest some of it in crypto

Seeing as the money is already in BCH, I guess I will just convert the amount I need to fiat and leave the rest there. BCH is down right now and it's a good time to buy, so I will just leave more than half of it as BCH.
I should probably buy other coins, right? "Don't put all your eggs in one basket" so they say. Ok then, let's buy $50k worth of BTC, I have a good feeling it will also pump by December (fingers crossed π€).
Build a house
$240k is roughly around β¦120M, that's huge in my country and is exactly what I will convert to fiat. My family is currently paying rent for an apartment yearly, and it's one of my dreams to build a house for them.
My mom is always saying all her kids will build a house, and she has sacrificed a lot to make sure we have a bright future. So it's only proper I give her the house she's already wanted.
Invest into agriculture
This is in line with what I'm currently studying in the university which is fisheries or like we like to package it most times; aquaculture and fisheries management.
I love what I'm studying, but the funny thing is I found myself in it by mistake. I have always wanted to be a doctor, but now I have grown to love fisheries, so I guess it's not a mistake after all.
I will use some of the money to establish a fish farm, where I will carry out a lot of fisheries activities. I'm going to rear different types of fish, coz everyone has a different preference.
I will also look into crop production, seeing as I have knowledge of it as well. I will carry out what we call integrated aquaculture; fish farming and crop production combined. I will produce various food items and help in reducing hunger in the society.
In addition to that, I will employ a lot of persons to help out on the farm, this will also help to reduce the rate of unemployment in the country. But I won't be able to see everything that happens on the farm and some persons will steal from me π€ then let's install CCTV cameras all over the farm, that will greatly reduce criminal activities.
Startup forex trading
I learned forex trading a couple of years back but I have forgotten most of the concepts and tools that I wouldn't trust myself to have a good profit to loss ratio.
I have a very good friend that also learned forex around the same time I did but he has been trading since then and he has gotten really good at it, so I will give him some money to trade with, and then we will split the profit halfway, that's fair enough, right
I will sponsor my sponsors! Yes, I will sponsor them with at least $50 monthly, they have been amazing. Now is probably a good time for you to join my sponsors list
I will also invest in a forex trading company so they will help me trade and I just have to do is to provide the capital. I know some pretty good investment companies back in the days, but I will research more on them.
I should probably look into investing in stocks, but I don't know much about it. I will ask my uncle that buys stock to put me through on how to go about it.
Spend on myself and my family
Alright, It's time to spoil myself silly by buying something I want and might not even need. First off I will buy myself a new phone, I think I will just go for the Samsung S21 ultra. My current phone is on life support and might die anytime from now, so let's change it before that happens.
Next, I will buy a new laptop, the contraption I'm using right now can be a huge pain in the a** sometimes. Then I will buy a car, yes I need a sweet 4-wheels, preferably a Mercedes Benz 4matic.
Up next I will take my family shopping. I'm not going to be doing the shopping here in the country, no no, we are going international. It's a shopping spree ladies and gentlemen, so buy whatever you want. But don't overdo it, we ain't gonna be wasting money on things you won't use.
Buy lunch for my coursemates
This year is my 4th year in school and like every other department under agriculture, it's our field practical year which means we spend most of our time at the farm than actual classes.
For those of us in fisheries, we usually sign in to the fish farm every day from Monday to Friday by 8am and sign out by 4pm. Sometimes we don't have anything to do and we just chill in the farmhouse, but it can get really boring sometimes.
I was thinking of buying a TV and setting up an entertainment hub at the farm, but the farm manager wouldn't like that; it will cause distractions from what we are doing (even though he has a TV in his office!) What better way to entertain everyone than to use foods and drinks?
So yeah, once a week I will just order lunch for everyone; different variety of foods and drinks will be available, but no alcohol please. We wouldn't want anyone getting drunk and start threatening the manager or end up trying to get the fishes drunk as well.
As I said in FarmGirl's latest article, I'm a battery charger and I love drawing out a smile from everyone. If you're confused about the battery charger stuff, then you should check out her article for clarification (What Are You?)
I know my coursemates will greatly appreciate the kind gesture. I mean, who doesn't love food?

Conclusion
Phew! It's being a while I daydreamed and it can be really crazy sometimes. As you might have known by now, this was all a fantasy and it's just me hopping on the ongoing trend that I first saw in one of @Olasquare articles (check it out here).
A lot of people have also taken part in this trend and it has been fun reading their version of it. I imagine I actually check my portfolio right now and see $590k in there, I will have a mini heart attack at first and you guys will probably not see me here for a couple of months
So what about you, what will you do if you suddenly have $590k? You can let me know in the comments below or better still; write about it π
