What would you do if you won?

Me: First I'd quit my job, work out like a mad woman so that I could look smoking hot in the Jessica Rabbit dress I would have custom made for my new hot body, and travel to every country in the world!

And help programs that help out of work people find work, give to my church, and help orphans, etc.

    Walk away from my house, move to some island paradise and live in a cool house on a bluff with billowing white curtains, dark wood floors, and a pool boy. I don't even care about the pool. Yeah. I've thought about this.

    Meet with a financial adviser and a lawyer, set up a trust and appoint a trustee to accept the money on the trusts behalf so my face and name isn't shown or used.. Pay off mine and my fiances school debt along with my siblings. Pay off my parents houses, set up college funds for my nieces and nephews. Make one large outlandish purchase- and then most of the money would be used to build a camp for kids that have terminal or life threatening illnesses.

    Well, after getting kicked out of the navy for financial hardship (no ****, they say you have too much money and have to go manage it, that and you're then a security liability).

    I'd buy a whole bunch of $150k-250k houses, rent them out, buy my Nissan GTR, my wife's Bugatti, my dream gym and garage, and start my next project car, a 1993 RX-7.


    Oh, and hookers and blow... that's what I'd do.

    you'd need $350M to buy all of possible outcomes and then hope that nobody else got a winning combination as well. after you subtract the lotto's cut and taxes and everything else, you'd ending up losing millions of dollars at minimum.

    I spent my entire staff meeting this morning spending that money.....

    Once taxes and lottery fees are taken out I would donate 30% of the original amount.

    Then I'd give some to all my family members. Pay off my mom's condo and open a bank account (with monthly deposits) for her so she could take what she wanted whenever she wanted. Set up trust funds and college accounts for my close friend's kids and for my nephew.

    With what's left I would buy a nice little farm someplace pretty like...Ireland... and settle there with a couple of nice horses, a large overly protective dog, a personal trainer, a maid, and a personal chef to live a quiet and uninterrupted life.

    I'd invest it wisely, live my dream life in the country away from people, give some to my family, donate some to charity. Oh and I'd probably write "I QUIT" on my butt and streak through my workplace lol

    I would have plastic surgery to give me a fantastic backside, then show up at my job and tell everyone to kiss it!

    Then do nice things for nice people with the rest!

    Quit my job, buy a house and stay at home to spend with my kids all the time we've lost together. And possibly see if I can bribe my ex into giving me full custody of my 2 oldest (he was abusive to me so I'm not ashamed to do this)

    Pay off all of our bills, grab my husband and we'd get the hell out of dodge and go into hiding before all of the sob stories come a-knocking.

    Not saying I wouldn't help other people...but I'd lay low for a while till things settled down a little bit.
