Spend all my BTC figuring out who in their right mind would buy BTC at $1000/BTC
Easy, people who want to get some coin while it's still cheap.

Well at least we know someone will be buying our worthless paper at $1000 
Spend all my BTC figuring out who in their right mind would buy BTC at $1000/BTC
But in all seriousness, I'm ditching my body and becoming a robot. I'll have to wait for $100K/BTC for that though.
Let become cyborgs!
What about slaves and blow?

1. Build more efficient miner
2. Build my own lab for researching AI
3. Having fun with whoever I want
haha

Hookers and blow, anyone?
Haha, blow ain't my thing but hookers, weed and acid would be nice But first of all I would do my best to become self-sufficient, so I won't have to worry about money that much in the future.
Spend my state sponsored currency as needed to survive. Find volunteer projects to help with. Buy things with BTC only if I need to, and wait for the price of BTC to reach 100+K.
Strange as it may seem ... well yes, they are making more land ... 657 new Islands to be exact ....
If they are in International waters then they are free game ... but be quick.

Here's something you don't see every day — hundreds of new islands have been discovered around the world.
The Earth has 657 more barrier islands than previously thought, according to a new global survey by researchers from Duke University and Meredith College in Raleigh, N.C.
The researchers identified a total of 2,149 barrier islands worldwide using satellite images, topographical maps and navigational charts. The new total is significantly higher than the 1,492 islands identified in a 2001 survey conducted without the aid of publicly available satellite imagery.

If Bitcoin hits $1000, I will try to attract a small group of freedom-loving Bitcoiners to buy an island that's big enough for us all, and on which we can install high-speed internet.
... like the Free State project. I've wondered about the feasability of doing this ... Some of these smaller Islands only have a few thousand residents, the outer ones sometimes less. If a group of "free staters" showed up in numbers they could just make the the place its own nation, zero taxes, gold/bitcoin, internet private banking, poker servers, etc .... then what they get blacklisted as a 'non-compliant country' ... so what?
There are fully inhabited islands around the world, if you want. But all controlled by governments.
I'm a bit skeptical about this idea of "taking over" a country with immigration. I think people would react badly to that. Nationals may easily turn against you. They'd see this as a foreign invasion.
Just buy a couple mansions on a mainland nearby for everyone.
For people really interested in not dealing with existing governaments at all, if you get like the-IMF-borrows-money-from-you rich or somthing, perhaps you could invest in research for developing means to guide underground magma flows so you can grow your own island (after Sealand they changed the rules so you can just build soil for your new country, but i guess if you had your own volcano lair in the middle of the ocean that was created the same way many accepted sovereign lands have, they might have a hard time coming up with an argument against your own sovereingnity(sp?), and if all else fails, you can hold the world hostage anyway since you now can make volcanos grow into their comercial centers and shit *raises one eyebrow and sticks a pinky in the corner of his smirk*
I'd probably shower myself with expensive gadgets and toys, among other things

Cool, I'd join.
The problem is that existent islands are all controlled by governments. I think it's easier to create a seastead, if you want freedom. Technology for that already exists, the only thing missing is either rich people wanting to "retire" like that, or a business model good enough to maintain such seastead - and brave entrepreneurs wanting to take the risks.

If we can get very high-speed Internet, count me in!

Pick one that is a relay station for some fiber cable for good internet ... close to flight/shipping routes may make it more desirable also.
These ones only have 609 residents and dropping ....

Fiji is a relay point for fibre crossing but is ruled by a power-mad general at present ...
... I might buy an island.
Yeah, I think a lot of us will be 'manipulating prices' in the island market in a few years.

I'm in. See you next year?

Buy the government and turn it off
Um, isn't that what the Koch brothers are already attempting to do?
I'd pay off debts, throw a wild party, and go travel through India and Thailand for a year.
I might buy an island.
That! Or even better, build my own seastead.
But I don't think a $1000 bitcoin price would be enough for me to do so. I don't have that many bitcoins, unfortunately.
