What could you buy for $65 million?

Televangelist Creflo Dollar has asked supporters to help him raise $65 million for a new private jet.

His ministry at World Changers Church International, based in College Park, needs the jet so that he can safely spread the word of Jesus Christ around the world, Dollar said.

But what else could you buy with $65 million? We found seven uses for that king’s ransom.

1. A Quarter Pounder with cheese for all 16 million citizens of Malawi, one of the poorest countries in the world.

2. A new Bible for every citizen in the state of Georgia

3. An iPad Air, desktop computer, Beats by Dre headphones and a mountain bike for every student in Atlanta Public Schools

4. 2,954 brand new Honda Accords

5. Two-day MARTA pass for everyone in Metro Atlanta

6. $85 worth of groceries each week for a year for every resident of College Park

7. 3 semesters of classes, room and board at Georgia State University for 1857 students
