Well, if throwing cost out the window, then throw in a D600 and the 85 f/1.4 and a 24-70 f/2.8 (new version with VR) and a 500 f/4 AFS VR and a 24PC-E with a rotatable tilt axis ... that is in addition to my earlier request.
Some really great responses in this thread. I'd prob chuck a PC-E into the mix too. Always fancied having a go with one as I hear they're fantastic lenses.
I'd prob chuck a Canon 1DX and a couple of Canon lenses in the bag too.

I am a simple man. My fantasy... and I keep repeating it until Nikon God will hear it...
FM3A in digital version, including the sensor from D600, eventually a single AF point or full manual, no film feature, just a few controls: ISO, aperture, shutter speed, WB... a nice focusing screen and a bright huge viewfinder... could be one frame per second... i don't care...

That's called slavery! It's illegal. Women deserve more respect even of a passing comment!
If a female member had said 'When I win the $420M this week my first purchase will be the Nikon 500mm VR and some strong hunky men to carry it for me' you wouldn't have even batted an eyelid.

Are you sure? Are you in my mind? Buying a person, man or woman, is slavery ... no matter what it is illegal and immoral and not something I joke about ...
... unless refering to my children But I did not have to buy them and theirs is a temporary slavery in exchange for a roof over their heads and an education.

Well, it *is* at will employment. It's like a cross between a gogo dancer and a hiking sherpa.

The way the sentence is written in the original post, you were going to "buy" them along with the lens, but if you are simply employing them, then by all means, carry on.

Andre - you have got to lighten up. Who ever said anything about enslaving someone to carry a lens. If I won the $500M (which I didn't ). I could hire lots of assistants to carry my gear. Where is your sense of humor??
