    I'd probably end up giving most of it away honestly.

    I'd give half to a nonprofit...JUST so the gov can't tax that portion.

    Actually, I tend to wait until *after* a big prize is given, then try my luck. The odds are better that way. :smokin:

    Well you would then be in A LOT of debt.

    You have to pay taxes first, which is about half

    Well first I would come on MFP and ask for some sound financial advice. Ok, maybe not, I would sit at my dining room table and design what I would consider to be the perfect house, from subfloor to roof. Not to blueprint specifications, but pretty close. Then I would buy a wall map of the US and go state by state pro's and con's of choosing to live there (currently there are two out in the north west that have a really great Pro). I would then contact the brothers that are on TV where one finds the fixer uppers and the other one fixes them up, and I would get them to be in charge of my project. I would choose the cash payout, and really don't give a **** about the tax ramifications of doing so because $150 Million dollars is more than enough for me and my family to live on for a few generations. I would update my will. I would have one of the best home based gyms in the world, and a private trainer, to work with my personal chef and continue my weight loss efforts. I would have to buy a couple of Alienware computers so that I could stay in touch. I would invite my MFP Friends to come and enjoy a workout vacation at my new home, all expenses paid of course. Those of us that are poor tell ourselves that money doesn't buy happiness, but I am pretty sure I could rent it for the remainder of my life with $150 Million.

    OP didn't mention it was from the lottery in the question she just said what we would do with 425 million.
