    I'm not much of a gambler either. Unless you consider $1 twice a week a gambler. And then only when it goes over 50 Million.
    I guess I just like to dream about what I COULD do with the money.
    We all have our fantasies, and I guess I'm curious about what other pet people dream about.

    Thanks to all who have taken the time to share their dreams.


    Puppies make the best friends

    I'm A Loki Dog!!!!



    Once I spoke the language of the flowers,

    Once I understood each word the caterpillar said,

    Once I smiled in secret at the gossip of the starlings,

    And shared a conversation with the housefly

    in my bed.

    Once I heard and answered all the questions

    of the crickets,

    And joined the crying of each falling dying

    flake of snow,

    Once I spoke the language of the flowers. . . .

    How did it go?

    How did it go?

    I would take care of my family and my extended family etc. (BF).
    Give to my favorite charities.
    I would buy a ranch overlooking the ocean and the back yard is federal land.
    (have a chef etc.)
    Travel and be able to do anything I please.
    Oh yea I would quit my job.

    I would pretty much just disappear

    TRAVEL!! Lots of travel and adventures for me.

    I would also have several different homes in various parts of the world.

    I would move as close as I could to LokiDog's heaven. I'd scoop litter pans, clean out bunny hutches, refill food and water dishes, muck out the horse barns, and generally be useful.

    I'd send my youngest nieces to college, my nephew and my oldest niece to grad school.

    I'd replace my sister's car which is on its very last legs.

    I'd buy a summer place with a huge porch and some rocking chairs.

    And I'd rest.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    The state of Illinois just started offering Powerball about 6 or 8 weeks ago. The jackpot is now around $200 million. Man oh man, all the things I could do with even one percent of that money!

    My sister's car is even more on its last legs than when i posted this!

    One other thing I'd do is move my 70-something parents to accessible housing, maybe an independent living center. They have lived in their house since before I was born and it is getting a lot harder for them to manage.

    I'd set up a scholarship fund for PTers or their relatives studying medicine (human or animal) or any other worthwhile subject, which would be defined as basically anything one can learn. And a fund for PTers needing help with veterinary or other bills. That should use up all the money nicely, I think.

    I'd buy a couple hundred acres in the Catskill Mountains. I'd keep maybe 5 of it to build my dream log cabin house with minimum impact on the environment and would use the cabin builders that plant another tree every tree they use. I'd live there with Amigo and my Irish Setter named Ginger, there would also be a run-in shed for my llama named Snert. Secluded but not isolated. The rest would be designated as a wildlife refuge where the only changes to the ecosystem would be what the animals make themselves. No hunting would be very strictly enforced. You can go in the refuge but only on foot or horseback - no bikes or vehicles of any kind, again strictly enforced. And no interference with the visiting wildlife in the refuge will be tolerated. My dream log cabin house will be big enough for friends to come to enjoy the peace and serenity. Every autumn when the leaves are at peak there will be a big party.
