You receive a check in the mail and a letter (1 Viewer)

The check is for $250k and the letter says you will die in four months. You'll have no health complications, and you'll die peacefully in your sleep 4 months from when you are reading the letter. You cannot avoid death by avoiding sleep on the death date. If you try, it will result in an extremely painful death. There are no other conditions.

What do your next four months look like? What do you do; where do you go; what do you see? You have the money from the check plus any money you currently have or could earn at your disposal. 

 
I am buying as much life insurance as I can for my wife and 2 kids to benefit when I die.

I'd buy sleeping pills to make damn sure I can fall asleep the day I'm supposed to die.

 
I'd take the letter to the police and let them determine whether this is a hoax or the work of a wealthy and eccentric serial killer targeting me as their next victim.

Add in few vacations with the family and that's about it.  I've partied as hard as I ever will - I'd be too reflective and distend to go have a good time alone.  Creating some additional wealth for the family would make me happy.

Yep.  I’d also do some of that sappy go tell people how I really feel and leave some notes or videos for my kids.  Honestly, I love my life and living - I’d be a wreck those 4 months with the thought of what was coming.

 
Luckily, after reading this thread, I know to just deposit the check without reading the letter.

I’m guessing the investigation into your sudden massive spend on life insurance four months before you die will lead to a non payout, or a settlement at best.

 
Go to Asia and Australia - haven’t been there yet

Spend some more time in Europe, hit Iceland

Eat great food everywhere

Go see Pearl Jam in Boston without getting puked on

Finish out in South Pacific with family last 2 weeks

This is 100% on my list. The Reykjavik layover is allegedly legendary. 

 
I had a four hour layover there in about 2000. What is the legendary part? 
A fun town full of beautiful women eager to have sex with someone they aren’t related to, gorgeous scenery, and great bars? I can’t imagine what people like about it.
