What would you do if you'd win the lottery?

[sparks19]

If I won millions I would.....

Take care of our families.... especially our parents.

put money away for our kids.

never work again lol

buy a house with A LOT of land.

do some travelling.

[lizbud]

If I won, which I won't, cause I don't play the lottery, I would pay off
all debts & buy land to build a big house. in the country.

I'd adopt a least two more dogs & give money to animal rescue groups.

[lvpets2002]

Buy a Big New House & Car & Lots New Cat Furniture & cat & dog toys.. Bunch of Treats & Food.. Then Build a Big Local Animal Shelter & donate what I could to all rescue services..

[Hellow]

That too for me, with my other post.

[Alysser]

1.)Get another dog
2.)Buy a normal-sized house, nothing huge with a nice peice of land. Pay if off RIGHT AWAY.
3.) Save it for college
4.) Pay off my parents mortgage and stuff.
5.) Donate to Deborah hospital, the one that saved my life, animal shelters, and breast cancer research
6.) Redo my room over POTC if I was still a kid.
7.) Set up an account in the bank as a safety net for myself, my parents, brother and sister. Something like joint account.
8.) I am buying a car! hybrid car that is.

9.) Maybe if I have enough left over I would go on a Disney cruise with my family or if they didn't want to come invite some close friends and a couple of pt'ers... how does that sound to you guys? We'd go to the bahamas, key west, the caribbean, and best of all their exclusive private island that has the REAL POTC ship on it. Then go to some of the disney parks with some close freinds and PT'ers. ALL of it my treat.

THEN...
Me and Sassy would go to Europe and all around the world. Ah, I love to dream. We'd go to France, Italy(visit Michelle ), England(visit zara ), and Canada(visit alicia and blue_frog)and way more people.

I guess i would buy a bigger home with everything i wanted in it, cat fencing the property would be the first thing i would do,and i would have a hydrotherapy spa, i would give all my family money,and invest a lot of it, so i would never have to worry about money ever again, and i am sure i would help all my friends out, and give some to charity, or start my own kitty shelter.

A world trip would be on the cards, first class, as i have trouble traveling, that would be the only way i could manage it,first stop would be the land of my birth Scotland.

[buckner]

I'd first pay back my parents for everything. They've spent a lot on me, especially with this last year of college. But, in the 19 years of my existence, I don't even want to imagine how much they have spent! So, even though they don't need the money, I would pay them back for everything.

Second, I'd buy them a piece of farm land in some of the best parts. They want this land, but they don't want to pay the price. So, I'd buy the land for them so they could start building their log cabin.

I think I'd then travel... not sure where.

Lastly, I'd tie up a lot of the money in cd's that would mature and make some decent money off of. I'd continue to live off of the interest.

[luvofallhorses]

I would donate a majority of the money to the shelter where I volunteer.

move out in the country and get a few horses.


buy my parents a new house and buy my brother a new house, too and a new car for him and my parents and I would build a misunderstood dog rescue and get a lifetime supply of chocolate and a new wardrobe. plus my pets would get anything they want, too.

[sandragonfly]

divide the lottery by 50 - then get on hot balloon, travel over each center of state, spread them out and watch them falling.

and have my partner down there camrecord the chantings of cheers.

[Jessika]

Half of my winnings (or half of my monthly/yearly installments if that's how I chose to receive payment) would go straight into a high-yield savings account or CD that I could not access for at least 10 years.

Then I would use whatever was left to help pay off my debt, my parents' house, my parent-in-law's house and cars. Then I would probably buy a new car, and depending on how much I won.... buy stuff for my close friends and family (like if they needed a car, or down payment for a house, whatever).

Move out to the country with at least 15 acres of land, build my dream of owning a kennel and when I become a vet operate from my own home as well as run a boarding facility for cats, dogs, horses, etc.

And donate a lot as well to random organizations and charities.

[Pawsitive Thinking]

I'd stop work pronto! and then concentrate on enjoying the rest of my life debt-free

Talk about winners. One woman from Ohio won 1 million dollars.


Indebted Mom Finds $10, Buys $1M Lottery Ticket
Woman To Take Cash Payments Over 20 Years

POSTED: 8:54 am EDT May 21, 2007



NORTH CANTON, Ohio -- A deeply-in-debt gas station clerk found a $10 bill, bought the last lottery ticket on a roll at the store where she works and wound up a millionaire, and it's not a movie.

It really happened Friday to Kristina Schneider in North Canton, Ohio.

She said she always jokes that the last ticket on a roll is the winner, and she even tried to persuade a customer to buy it, but he only had enough money for three tickets.


Then the single mother with nine maxed-out credit cards and $8,500 in debt for her associate's degree bought it herself with a $10 bill she had found in the store. It turned out to be a winner in the Magnificent Millions lottery game. Schneider promptly locked the store while she went to the restroom to be sick.

Schneider said she's still numb.

The 32-year-old woman said she'll take 20 yearly payments of about $34,500 after taxes. She said a lump sum payment would have left her "broke again in five years."
