  • i'd still have to take the increments i think. it's just so much extra money you could still get and i'm not gonna spend millions a year anyway.

  • Go out and buy about 3000+ acres with a monster lake or 3. Buy an array of huge 4 wheelers and fully customize them top to bottom, buy a house in Ireland, then go around the world ministering to children, and trying everything in my power to abolish any liberal law I didn't like.

    regardless, a little over a mil a month for 26-29 years. I could figure something out to do with the money. I hear coccaine is a hell of a drug

  • Do you get a mill right off the bat?

    Game over snitches, bought me 2 tickets to tonight. Grandview Ohio is the home of the winning ticket. Happy meals for all on tBB.

  • Put it all on black

  • don't do the payments. take the lump sum. You can make it all back on interest and if I remember right I read that you can't make the payments part of your inheritance so if you die the payments just disappear.

    First I could pay off all debts that I have. I would set myself and my parents up in nice houses, cars, etc. I would secure season Husker tickets. Then I would make sure all of my good friends go through college debt free. I have several friends going to med school, so they would be taking on a lot of debt, but not with me paying it all. Then I would give a bunch away to my huge family. And any friends that might be in need, I have a few friends who's parents had cancer surgeries, etc. I would like to pay that type of stuff off for them.

    After all the buying and giveaways, I'd like to have 100 million left and just put it in low risk accounts that make about 6% interest and soak in 6 million a year to live on. Just travel and enjoy life for the rest of my days.

    No I haven't spent much time day dreaming about winning the lottery lol

  • 1. I would tithe and give offerings to my church. Probably would split the 'offering' to several other Christian organizations.
    2. I would donate to a local charity (volunteer outreach program) enough to sustain them for at least 20 yrs.
    3. Set up trusts for my nieces, nephews and our close friends' kids.
    4. Set up trusts for my sister and brother and brother and sister-in-law.
    5. Set up an adoption fund for people who cannot have children on their own.
    6. Give to many charities that help people who are struggling in life.
    7. Buy my parents and in-laws a home.
    8. Set up some educational scholarships in the names of my parents at FSU.
    9. Set up some scholarships in the names of my grandfather and grandmother **at** UNC Pembroke.
    10. Take my dad and grandfather to a MLB game at every stadium.
    11. Take my grandmother--who is in the nursing home--to Italy, where she met my grandfather.
    12. Find some other ways to just help out random people who may have been laid off work. ( I have been laid off before)
    13. Take my wife and family to Europe for a 4 month trip and see everything they've ever wanted to see.
    14. Buy 1,000 acres of single tract land and build a modest house in the middle of it. Live a nice quiet life and just pray that God lead me to more opportunities to help people.

    That's about it.

    Agree on the tithe part. Give to my church and several others I have attended over the years. Other Christian organizations would recieve the balance.

    My thinking with the sliding scale based on education level for the nieces and nephews was that instead of just getting a chunk of money to live off of, they would be more likely to set an example for their own children to work toward an education. Hopefully a gift that keeps giving generations from now.

    My dad and I would go to a Super Bowl, NBA Championship, World Series, The US Open, The British Open, Olympics, Daytona, Bristol Night Race... Already been to a NHL finals and the Masters.

    I would buy an RV and the day school is out for the kids for the summer, we would travel the US visiting National Parks.

  • Well when i WIN not if i hope i dont die of a heart attack when my numbers hit. Then pay off all debt and set up the family. Immediately party after that and hopefully survive long enough during my excessive binge that i could still die being on top and not the bottom.

  • I got 5 tickets myself.

    If i won, I would buy a bar or something like that and chill for the rest of my life. Live off that income and the interest income i would earn.

  • First and foremost, I'd probably buy a big steak dinner and have way too many adult beverages. But long term, I'd do everything in my power to keep out of the media, help out some family, make some investments. I work for a trading company, so I'd probably buy-in and keep working part time.
