Say you won the lottery

Scenario:

Lottery winner, 4million takehome after taxes, or you opted for some number like 120,000 a year for 30years. Question is where would you relocate? Would your priorities change if you had children? Europe?
 
Would be quite a trick for me to win, since I don't buy tickets..heh -- but no, I wouldn't leave this area. Buy my own house, probably..
 
I would invest most of it. Take some and travel around the world. Move to Colorado after that. Buy all the camera stuff I've been wanting 😛
 
I would get out of this sweathole called Houston and move somewhere that actually has a season called winter.
 
Yes I'd relocate. $120K a year, although nice, really isn't a lot in the SF Bay Area. I'd move somewhere where it is.
 
Well I'd probably stay relatively the same area. Invest a good deal of the money and continue to work/finish up my degree. Then I'd go to my family's other house in rural michigan and buy the entire square mile that the house sits on.....we already own about 26% of the square mile so I'm sure I could buy the rest 😛
 
No. I would still have to work although I could cut back on my workload. But the extra money would be nice for investments.
 
Central CA coast. Not quite LA, Not quite SF FTW.
Pay off the local judiciary and constabulary, and grow , you know.
and live happily (hippily?) ever after.
 
Quit work. Get out of debt. Go back to school and pursue hobbies and other topics I enjoy. I'd stay in the bay area, ca and buy a house + new car.

 
Answering my own question: I would relocate to where they had the best schools and excellent neighborhoods. I would buy a place that would have about 10rooms and 3 stories maybe in Palm springs. And proceed to have as many kids as I could afford.

RossMAN wouldn't sell without a coupon.
 
I'd pay off my sister's college loans. Pay off any bills my parents have. Give my parents enough money to go with their retirement packages so they could live comfortable without picking up a part-time job. Put money in the bank for my brother's college attendance. Invest the rest and get a part time job doing something I like.
 
Id invest it for a couple years, wait for the ridiculous housing prices in the Bay Area to tumble, then buy a nice house (probably still run a million though) and live off the rest.
