That's what I've decided to do. I had been sitting on around a little over a million in gold and figured this weekend was the time to max out Sweet Tooth on one of my characters. Kinda silly to keep all that money for no reason, and playing Barbie or Pokemon with my characters isn't something that appeals to me.

buy elite kurziks and elite luxon for rit & sin

hmmmm....
I would probably start by giving most of it to the different guild leaders in my alliance, so they can have the full treatments in their GH. (Where's the dang dye dude????? And the pie...you promised me pie GoE!)
Then, I would start an open bank for alliance and guild mates to get that 'gotta have' weapon, or armor peices.

- Get my last money sink titles: Drunkard and Life of the Party; ~ 2.5m total
- Finish my mesmer's FOW set; not even 300k.
- Buy the few remaining weapons I want: Voltaic Spear, Tormented Shield, Tormented focus. ~300k+100e? >_>;;...
- Help my friends getting what they want: I know my one wants his Eternal Blade and maybe another wants FoW. Should cost me either the rest of my cash, or fairly close to the rest.

I'd buy armor I want with the remaining cash.

At this point I have no use for gold, I don't want to max any of the silly money titles or anything and have all the armor and weapons I need. I suppose I would get my GW friends a set of FoW armor each and buy sweet tooth for one of them since he really wants it.

I'd buy however many stacks of black dye I can get with that much gold (using a bot to do my purchasing(ooh, controversy!)), then I'd sell it all to a merchant and give the proceeds to the first person I see coming out of the overlook in SJM.

The total numbe of ectos bought from trader will increase and trader price will be back at where it started.

No matter how much would you waste money on this operation, the prices will balance out.
Doesn't really matter at this point because ectos are dropping. I win.

ive been sitting on a few mil for months (easy to get if u really want it) and get around 400-500k free every month. i could buy some pve titles but it doesn't interest me at all, so i just buy monthly everlasting tonics for now. i have virtually everything i want already that can be bought so not much else to do with my gold. at least pvp still interests me

5 million gold isn't going to make my account worth an additional $500. It's more profitable to sell the gold.

Hmm, I would buy all the minis I don't have, which is pretty much all the expensive ones, finish my sweet tooth title for gwamm, buy the wisdom and zaishen titles, buy every armor set imaginable. Then probably quit gw cause its boring and I have nothing to work for. Eh, probably better I don't have that money.

Um, 1000 plat in storage each on multiple accounts? There's 5 million+ gold for ya. Simple. Or 1000k + XXXXXXX ectos? Easy enough. 1000k storage + 100k on every character added up to equal 5 million? Easy enough.

So many ways to have millions of gold.

Or just get 250+++ Armbraces lol.

Continue playing the game as I normally do. Outfitting each individual character in my favourite armour would be a lot easier, though (instead of dropping back to ~0k every time I get new armour).

And, I'd probably buy a few "undedicated" rare minipets that I will likely never own without purchasing.

I'd buy my sweet tooth/party animal titles, then buy all the rare skins I wanted. I probably wouldn't be able to spend it all.

i would prob buy all the minis, fill out my HoM full, get all titles, get a couple r8 weps, an r9 (r8 if i can find one) crystalline and a voltaic and then if i have more left i would give it away to new players.

oh and ppl, its a theoretical situation, answer the question or dont answer, no need to hear how you cant have 5mil, which is possible quite easily.
