What Will Barbie Do With $40 Million?


If you haven’t heard, Barbie just won $40 million from the maker of Bratz dolls. The question is – what will Barbie do with all that money?

Shopping
Obviously Barbie is going to go shopping. It’s no secret the Bratz girls were a bit more hip and trendy in the world of fashion dolls. The Bratz dolls were so successful, Barbie was starting to lose some of the money it should have been making. Obviously Barbie needs a bit of a fashion boost, you can bet some of that money is going shopping.

Travel
Barbie is a traveling kind of girl. She wants adventure in her life, and $40 million is plenty of money to spend on exciting and exotic trips. Nobody knows where she’ll go, but she’s enough like us to probably head to Europe, possibly a cruise, maybe a trip to save part of the world, and certainly a few camping trips in that Barbie camper.

Charities
If Barbie stays the kind of girl we know her as, she’ll very likely give a large portion of that money to charity. There are too many wonderful charity programs to choose from, but Barbie is like any celebrity, she has enough without the extra funds, why shouldn’t she give them to someone who is seriously in need?
