No.. I didn't win the lottery.. I wish! lol I was just wondering what everyone would do if they won a ton of money~
$30 million - would pay off both my house and my ex husband's house - give money to MS research - start an Autism Foundation in my son's name - pay off my bills & student loans - buy a bed I could sleep on, cause this Insomnia is for the birds! - trade my Hyundai in for something and not worry about gas prices! - sign up for a DMD and not worry about the $1500/1900 a month - put the rest in the bank and live off the savings! Well.. it was nice dreaming for a second, now I have to come back to reality and finishing school and then trying to remain stable enough so I can work for a couple years and bank some money ~ will still play the lottery now and then Monique |

Buy a 46" catamaran and start sailing around the world. We'll do it someday, but we'd do it a whole lot faster with an extra 30M floating around!

It's too much money for me, so once DH and I got a house, we could pay off each of the kid's mortgages. I think I'd keep enough for us to live comfortably on, give some to our offspring, and donate the rest to charity.
I'm not saying that to sound like a Miss Goody-Goody, I think it's what I would actually do. At our age, DH and I couldn't spend that much in a lifetime, and I don't think giving it all to our children or grandchildren would make them better people. A few luxuries never hurt anyone, but I think too much money can actually ruin people. You only have to read the newspapers. Just MHO anyway.

Oh OMG I play this game everytime I buy a lottery ticket DH gets annoyed with me when I ask him what he would want to do.
So I have a ready made list..I am a expert daydreamer 1. Buy a house (maybe two - this game goes along with if you could buy a house in 5 different places where would you buy them) 2. Open a spa and treat all of you to treatments 3. Rent an office for DH and pay people to call him (lets face it he needs someplace to go everyday) 4. Travel a bit, visit friends...take you all to visit Koala! 5. Pay for my brother's college...and beer money (sister of the year!) 6. Go back to school 7. Donate money to Uof M to get season football seats 8. Buy DM a new real tiara! OMG the list could go on and on. Oh yeah did I mention shopping..and therapy for my shoe addiction. |

I would replace every 10th light pole in my city to a wind turbine so that we can all have free electricity for life.
Furthermore, I would add solar panels to the homes in my entire neigborhood and then sell the electricity to the Suadis when they need it in 20 years! -Vic |
