what would you do?

I don't think I'd do anything more than what I'd normally do. Probably play some warcraft 3 on a faster PC. But thats about it.

edit: paying bills is a given. 🙂

And fire automatic weapons at the beer cans set up on the fence in back of the swimming pool that full of blondes, brunettes and redheads.
 
I would walk in to work and give my boss a huge <strongbad voice> Ddouble-Deuce! </strongbad voice>, then leave.

Then I'd buy a house, buy a new car, move all my crap into my newly furnished house, pay for college, and buy one freaking huge plasma TV.
 
Hire the best damn lawyer & tax accountant.

Payoff debts.

Buy a new Lexus RX330.

Buy a mini to large RV.

Travel, travel, travel, travel, travel.
 
Hire a good accountant (as soon as I get back from my world travel celebration)

Pay off all my immediate family's debts

Travel

Buy a nice house

Travel

Buy a nice car

1.) Find some toilet paper to clean up the mess.
2.) Take a shower
3.) Go to local Porsche dealership and buy a 911 Turbo (I'd get a 360 Modena if I didn't have to drive 2 hours to get it.)
4.) Go to work as normal - park in no parking zone @ end of parking lot where everyone can see my new toy - pay guard not to have car towed.
5.) Listen to all the people asking "Who's car is that?" in the hallway. 😀

And that's all before lunch. 😉
 
Find everyone I dislike and tell them to go f-ck themselves. Then immediately drive to lottery headquarters using the shoulder the entire time. Probably take half and spend on cars, and house. Then invest the rest so I cna live off the interest...
 
I'd pay all the porn stars over the years I've found attractive and invite them back to my new big-ass house to have a weeklong orgy. Then, after they've left, buy everything I ever wanted.

Hey, at least I'm honest.
 
you know at this point I will be happy to win the lottery. but with my luck that will never happen.

Anycase I will do teh usual stuff.. and save over 75% of it for long term.

That's a very good idea but I thought they put the winners in the paper.
 
a childrens hospital
a foundation for children
2 chairs at my alma matter
a church for a friend of mine who is wants to build one
I would also call the William Gates foundation people and talk to them about some ideas
 
I wont win the lottery today. The Lottery is the donation to the government from the kind community members that are horrible at propability math 🙂.
 
Pay off the last of my bills, buy a nice piece of land and build my house and racetrack on it, buy my mom a house. I would also pay for my nephews college and buy him a house wherever he finds a job. My sister wouldn't get crap until she learns how to be responsible with money again. My uncle would get a house for him and his two sons as long as he leaves the bitch he is married to. After that I would just live a casual lifestyle.
 
If I'd gotten the $141 mil lump sum payout, figuring $80 mil after taxes...

Put $79 million into mutual funds. Finance a few cars, houses, etc for myself (counting on making more interest in the stock market than I'll pay on the financing) & use the interest off the $79 million to buy rental properties.

I'd use the $1 mil in cash to pay off my parents mortgage, my debt, gift the maximum tax free amount ($10K?) to a bunch of family & friends, pay off their respective debts (my sister's school loans), start a college fund for my brother, hire my parents to some pointless job with no responsibilities, & spend a few evenings leaving $1000 tips for cute waitresses.

mutual funds is at an all time low at the moment......better spend that money purchasing & developing some properties, or donate it to charities.
