I don't want to be an *ssh*le but is this really the place for this kind of topics? I'd suggest this to be placed in the off-topic section.

I have to agree on the off topic.
If I had the $100million, I'd fund the Carlysle Roman museum, and after that Vindoland (since I met Dr Birley this past summer). and then, fund a site in Virginia. After my villa in Sonoma wine country to which I'd invite all my Roman friends.

I would buy a property sufficient to the task, and build a milecastle and an oppidium/hillfort.

... built myself a fine Roman villa, Laurentine-like, complete with mosaics and wall paintings, or imitate Reinach (Villa Kerylos, Beaulieu-sur-Mer, France) or Getty (Malibu, USA).
also
... [strike]build[/strike] be reminded of Crassus saying "that no one was rich who could not support an army out of his substance" (Plutarch, Crassus 2.7)

Finally build my device and attendant software that would measure and map the inside and outside of helmets. Then compile a book of as many helmets as possible which would give detailed photos and measurements of all the helmets. The device would have the ability to be plugged into a 3-D printer so the book would include a disc or thumb drive that you could send to a 3-D prototyper and have you favorite helmets produced for closer examination. Oh and a villa.

... I wouldn't tell anybody. But I would give half to charity immediately and distribute a fair chunk to family and friends. Nobody needs such vast amounts of money - I'd be happy with just a million, knowing I had helped out at least 99 other people or causes with similar amounts.

Oh, and after the reconquista I would also change traditional Bavarian women´s attire from

to Swasiland traditional attire, contains nudity.
Seems for fitting, in regard of our local climate becoming warmer every year. And then I would probably legalize marital polygamy for both sexes so that everybody can be married to everybody at all time. Would be a fun social experiment. :-)
