Make good on my proverbial list of "The Top Ten People Who Better Pray I Never Get Diagnosed With Terminal Cancer."
 
I would get my wife pregnant, get a 2nd job and dump as much money into a savings account for my wife and child, then spend the last month tying up loose ends like finishing home improvement projects at home, getting credit cards paid off, visit my family members one on one and telling them how much I love them and sorry for all the bad things I've ever done or said.
 
If I were told I had 3 months to live as of today, I'd drop my summer classes and probably travel a lot. I'd probably also spend a lot of time hiking in the mountains.
 
Forgot to add:

Stay up all NIGHT every night playing the video games I haven't had to time to play.. Hopefully Half Life 2 and Doom 3 will be out before the diagnosis 🙂

not because i hate president bush or anything like that, but because i know i would end up in history books.

For some reason after I read your post I read your nick as nuremburg.
 
I'd keep working till I dropped dead. Life insurance and medical insurance are dependent on me working. If I stop working I'd have no medical insurance, no life insurance and my wife would be left with the cost of an expensive funeral, as well as medical bills, with no way to pay for it.

I would work until I could physically work no more then I would have to hope my employer would be merciful enough to keep my medical and life insurance going until I dropped dead.

This is the reality of life. This is how most people will go out.
 
Spend all my money. Live like a king, have like 50 hot girls at my house, and I dunno...on the last day I'd probably do something really weird like ....kill someone...LOL

No that?s why when the Doc tells you that you have 3 months to live he also writes you as permanently disabled so you can go on long term disability and not have to work!

I'd do all the drugs I've always wanted to try... go on a multi-state bank robbery spree and if I get caught I'd just off myself... but if I didn?t get caught man oh man I'd have me some fun with all that money!
