Not to forget about the private scuba diving paradise ;)

I remember reading somewhere that he recertifies medical equipment or something along those lines.

Remind me to win a lottery and do what he did!

I was thinking the same thing. 50 million on Lotto Max!

I do enjoy seeing these massive tanks but personally, no part of me would want such a thing for myself. That's 20K gallons worth of pain and suffering right there LOL.

When I lived near one, I rather enjoyed volunteering at public aquariums as a diver / algae scrubber... more rewarding to wave at the kids on the other side of the glass and less expensive.

Not with a full time job, no! But I was independently wealthy, I may do it to pass the time.

good points. If I had that kind of money I would maybe donate it to the zoo with the stipulation that they use it to set up an aquarium for public viewing and "research" and education. Our Calgary Zoo could really use one.

And of course private viewing for yourself anytime you wanted. :)

that goes without saying.
