You have 700 dollars and a winning 450 million dollar lottery ticket. You ride a bike and need to get 500 miles to the lottery office within the next 48 hours to claim your prize, you can bike 20 miles before passing out so you have to find a car to get you 500 miles with 700 dollars in your local area. Good luck.

You can choose to spend some of the money on repairs or blow the whole thing

I buy this and spend whatever it costs to fix the fuel pump, done deal.

I'd kill myself for being such a fatty.
>>
>>17824481
There's too many options to count, and I went for 20km instead of miles. For only a 100 more I could get a Ford Focus, 75hp with only 190km on the counter. That should be reliable enough. If that money really is an issue I could get a Ford Fiesta, also 75hp, with 43K km on the counter with 100 left to spend on gas and food.

Id just buy my current house and do some renovations, go one a big worldwide trip and then just kinda chill and garden, buy a few project cars, invest some etc. Hell id probably keep my job just to have something to do
>>
>>17830650
Best way to get cheap cars is to be a scumbag and lowball everyone.

If you low ball 50 people, 49 people might tell you to go fuck yourself but theres always someone desperate for quick cash.

>>17826434
Spend up to $700 to get $450 million
Logical indeed

Rent car is less than $200
$300 for food/hotel
$200 left for truckstop hookers on the way

Goodtimes already and havent even tapped into my millions

>>17830625
I'd get a house with a garage and a lift and an M6 e63 with low mileage. That's about as far as I would go.

Also the hair surgery

I'd buy a house, get surgery on my back, pay off my truck, and then continue living as usual.

I have herniated discs. I've tried ignoring it like an idiot but working and lifting and doing regular every day shit and not letting it heal properly when i first noticed symptoms have really fucked me over.

>You have 700 dollars cash and a winning 450 million dollar lottery ticket.
You really have poor conditions. Anyone with friends can get a ride after handing over a generous (to them) amount of cash. I am certain I can even get rides from neighbors on a "hire" basis.

So, OP's example probably includes some conditions. Such as the entire landscape is full of muggers. And that the $700 is an artificial limit because most people are able to pull out many thousands of dollars immediately and from other accounts on an immediate loan basis. For example, I have a lot of my money tied up in 401K, mutual funds, and other investments. But I can go to the credit union and have same-day loan approval and have tens of thousands of dollars instantly available since I would get a short term loan signed off against the clearance of an amount from the mutual fund plus the loan handling fee of course. OP is probably some inexperienced kid who has never been face to face with account handlers at a credit union. There's basically no situation that my credit union hasn't seen many times already.

$700 means:

A. I would drive my reliable car.
Of course, OP appears out of thin air and says all my two well-maintained cars have been destroyed by atomic bombs and I must find alternate means.

B. Rental car from a major brand.
If OP says no rental cars exist in the country, then this method doesn't work.

C. Airplane trip for most of the distance. I'd bike to the airport, take the plane, and taxi to a spot next door to the lottery office. For a 450 mile trip, the cost is well under $700.
But if OP once again says no airplanes exist in the country and there are no taxi services in the world, then I have to find another way.

D. I would go to the U-haul office since OP has said reasons A, B, and C are not available. U-haul doesn't count as a rental car so that circumvents OP's requirement of no rental cars.
