    If I had one million dollars....

    I would meet with my financial planner and organize our life to the end of time
    I would then share the remains with our family
    I would then organize a celebration of life party in which we would all enjoy

    I could care less about anything in life other than family and soul mates....

    I saw a lot of people say quit their job....Unless you are single with no kids or well into your 60's it would be VERY hard to live on $1M....even if you are talking about living off the interest alone. Even with a solid 4% ROI you would only be paid $40K per year....after multiple years of investment.

    Will still need a Job if you won $1M...even after taxes...now...don't even get me started if I insert taxes in this dream.

    My brother actually did win a million dollars playing the lottery. It is amazing how many distant and step relatives wanted to "reconnect"!
