Life is a taxable event
I'm an atheist. For every 10 BTC you send to me I will hold back from dispelling nonsensical religious arguments for 24 Hours.

That is a large chunk of Bitcoin.
If you are really going to give it away donate to helping children somewhere and help some animals.

I know if I was given any of it I would put some towards my 1 1/2 yr old daughter's college fund.  Then I would pay off some of the medical bills that have been building up from my spinal surgeries.  I am going to find out on Thurs the 29th finally when my next surgery is.  It will be my 3rd surgery on it in 2 yrs.  

I am gad you have that much Bitcoin, congratulations.  That is great they are releasing your coins back to you.

It is not often that the government gets something right.

Enjoy them no matter what you do.  Grin

If you're looking for donation ideas, I know a retired, older gentleman in dire need of financial assistance to a recent series of strokes.

You could also make my friggin' year by sending 22 BTC that I lost on a defaulted loan :\

Or...

1)  Invest a few hundred BTC's and start a Groupon-like business for Bitcoin.
2)  Cashout 5-10% and invest in high-yield dividend stocks and retirement funds.
3)  Invest another 100-200 BTCs and buy a rental property or two.  Fix 'em up and lease them out for a nice stream of subsidiary income.
4)  Buy a few intrinsically-valuable pleasure items.  For myself, I would buy either a new car since I spend 3-5 hours per day in one, or maybe a room full of new music equipment.  Identify some ways to spend a little money to significantly improve your quality of life.
5)  Donate to a person/group in need; there are tons to choose from.
6)  Cash out 10-20% to diversify and stay liquid.
7)  Create a nice cold-storage nest egg for yourself.


Option 4 gives you a 10% ROI assuming almost nothing goes wrong and you don't have to fix anything in the building ever.

Option 7 is just straight up retarded. It cost $5 for a VPS. 2x VPSes with rsync running as a cron job. Done. Maybe amazon glacier if he wants to backup his data long term.

Saying option 7 is retarded is a bit like the pot calling the kettle black.  Paper wallets and physical coins exist for a reason, and it isn't a retarded one.

And I think you meant option 3 not option 4 when referring to 10% ROI.

Yes, I did mean option 3. And option 7 is really stupid. You're trusting a cloud provider with a private address that contains over a million dollars. All it takes is one security breach, and bye bye cash.

Sure, you can encrypt it, but if you can memorize a long passkey, you can just create a mind-wallet and store that information in your head. Honestly, you're better off creating a copy of the public / private key and sticking it in a bank vault (paper key), rather than storing stuff online.

Uh, what part of "cold-storage" do you think involves storing BTCs online or trusting a 3rd-party service provider?

Do you have any idea what you responded to?

Oh my god, I read it as cloud-storage. I formally apologize. You're 100% correct there.

What about something epic. Like running a bitcoin a TV commercial during the superbowl. Or what about starting a "bitcoin boulevard" in your town. You have enough to make a big splash!

http://bitcoinboulevard.us/

that would be so awesome. it would create a lot of visibility for bitcoin and would be perfect for a bunch of mainstream media puff pieces to get the masses interested. i can see it now....
