If I win the lottery, I would give it ALL to charity.

Depends on how much the lottery was. These are important details that ATOT'ers seem to love to leave out. I certainly wouldn't give all of it away, thats asinine.
 
Well how much money are we talking here? Are we talking 5 million, or 230 million? If it was $230 million, I'd have about a 6,500 to 8,000 sq. ft. home constructed, I'd purchase a Leer jet, everything necessary to use/run it, and I'd immediately hire an accountant, a lawyer, a financial planner, and a host of other professionals and I'd start looking at large commercial properties to buy up, since with that kind of cash I could easily secure loans on hundreds of properties... 20 years and I could turn that into a billion or more... mmm... oh the possibilities.

Oh yeah, and I'd just contribute 5% annually to RAINN, just like I do now.

OR: you could end up broke with all your financial gambles and costly leer jet and your "host" of professionals
 
If I won I would pay off all of my friends debts, house, cars, loans, cc's, whatever. I would then buy my parents and myself a new house & car. Then I would invest about 1 million of it to live off of and give the rest to 2-3 charities. I don't need 300 million dollars to live well. You need a loving family and friends to do that and money doesn't buy that. However since I will never win the lottery this is all conjecture.

You've thought about this before, huh?
 
I'd move to a poor spanish or asian country with a low legal age limit and legal or non-existant drug laws.

I must be the only honest person here. Charity my ass.
