I would buy into some type of sports team. I would think something like NASCAR since cost of ownership is lower than most sports teams and they actually make money right now.

I would eventually donate, or make the money work for a cause I'm interested in... but it wouldn't be the first thing I would do.

My extended family is really fvcking poor, so much of it would go toward giving them a chance to pull out of it.

Re-Marry my wife, go all out, and take her on a really nice romantic honeymoon she so deserves.
Get back, update the home, buy a few nice cars, and put the rest away, or invest, to make more, so my kids, and their kids, will be well set for generations to come.

#1 thing I'd do would be to pay off all my and my wifes debt, then her and mines parents debt and my brother and her brother debt.

After that I'd travel the country in an RV towing a Mini Cooper for about a year and then after that decided where I want to buy a house.

I'd also buy a house for my parents, my wifes parents, my brother and my wifes brother.

Then I'd travel the world until I got tired of doing so.

Oh I forgot to add, it's not if I when but when I win the 360 Million jackpot tonight :D

Pay off all debt, pay off parent's house, give a little money to friends and relatives, build a brand new mansion, get some nice cars, nice stuff, and take the remaining $100 million or so and live off the interest for the rest of my life.

I'd also give lots of money to people who need it.

Biggest "splurge" purchases would be a Lamb Murcielago, my own theatre, and my own indoor basketball court.

go home, invest, start business.

I would also "donate" some money to a med school I want to go to.
I would go back to school, finish up all the stuff I wanted to learn and then go to med school.
If I get a chance later in life, maybe law school as well (but not now)

I would pay off a lot of my close friends debts (only the ones I feel I can trust with knowing)
And I would help anonymously a lot of the other friends who I wouldn't reveal winning to.
