So you win the $500 million Mega Millions jackpot, what do you do?

[Bloodshot Scott]

:dunno:

I would donate probably most of it myself, to my city and to local causes I felt would benefit the less fortunate. ALS is a disease that scares the crap out of me so a ton would go to that since is so poorly funded.

I would get my CNC degree and probably go to graduate school (already have my B.A.) and start a tool and die company.

One nice-sized house on a good-sized lake, and maybe a flat in downtown here in Lowertown so I could keep my ear to the street.

Lots of toys.

Season tickets (anything MN - pro, college).

Family would all get businesses and all debts would be taken care of. Cars and probably houses for all, especially immediate family.

Ohhhh, one can dream...

Oh yeah, first and foremost I would call a good lawyer and financial adviser!

 

[Sam Fisher]

30% right off the bat to The Children's Hospital Foundation.

 

[gunslingingbird]

New cars for my family and friends. Debts settled for those I care about. Donations to my Masonic lodge and shrine to be given to worthy causes. Buy my local union a building so we no longer have to share a building with the merchant marines (because I would not stop working just because I was rich). Go watch a Dolphins home game. Put the rest in the bank.

 

[Tiffany Doll]

First I'ld buy a new dildo and after a house for my future family and help the one I already have. And put some on the bank and get stolen buy a trader or the government lol

And also because I could be a nice girl sometimes, give some money to a child association...

Ah yes, also make some porn movies.

[STDiva]

Move to a farm in New Zealand and stay there for the rest of my life.

 

[jmafterdark]

What is it with you and sheep?

 

[squallumz]

he's a baaaaaad boy.

















sigh.

 

[gunslingingbird]

:lame: :ban:

 

[mekhet]

Ask Avy Scott out on a date for ice cream.

 

[Shifty]

I'd buy FreeOnes and make myself CEM (Chief Executive Moderator).

I'd meet frequently and regularly with personnel.

 

[L3ggy]

Donate 25% to WWF, and give 25% to my family. Keep the rest.

 

[robot_r0ck]

I'd donate 50% to various charities & other stuff to help people out. The other 50% is for me & my family to spend on whatever. blah blah blah.

 

[Red Spyder]

First I'd go into TV, look straight at the camera, hold up the $500,000,000,000 check and say "girl, you should have said 'yes'"

After that, I'd just go into hiding because I'd be part of the 1% :tongue:

 

[gunslingingbird]

What everyone neglects to acknowledge is the fact that about 60% of that money will be stolen by the I.R.S. On that happy note, carry on.

 

[Bloodshot Scott]

I've already thought of that. Maybe you get $250M, but taking the "lump sum" would be even lower than that. Probably below $200M is my guess.

 

[xfire]

Lots of philanthropic projects, lots of business projects, lots of random acts of kindness, even after the government left me with nearly a quarter billion.

 

[ThatRedWing]

Freeones BBQ bash. My place. This summer.


Buying some property and taking care of my friends and family. Donate a shitload to the American Cancer Society, local homeless shelters and set up a scholarship fund for kids that can't afford tuition. Yes, I would have a few new toys (boat, classic car, ORV, etc.), but I would pretty much live my life like I do now. I just wouldn't have to go to work everyday. I would have a whole lot more time to hunt, fish, camp and travel. I would have a great kitchen so I can cook more. I would have one hell of a garden so I can have fresh produce and herbs. I would attend a lot more sporting events, maybe take a tour of MLB ballparks. Season tickets at Spartan Stadium and The Joe.

 

[Hondarobot]

I'd buy Tiffany Doll whatever dildo she wanted, and then I'd buy a yacht and travel the world.

I'd also install guns to deal with pirates, because nobody like pirates.
