    Hmmmm, I'd be happy winning the $25 mill that's on the line for one of the lotterys here...which reminds me must buy my ticket.

    First of all I would probably pay off my credit cards...those evil things that they are. Then pay off my sisters, and parents debts, and I would totally pay off the bills that my aunt racked up due to her stroke. Not only would i pay off the bills and stuff for my family but I would give them some money as well not sure how much but they would totally get some.

    Then well I would try to find a nice house, not anything to big at least in the house department but I would want a big yard fenced of course for the dogs, maybe an acreage or something it's not like we don't have enough of them around the city.

    I would probably get the dogs an SUV (I'll be the driver of course) and maybe get myself a new beetle for when I don't have the dogs, they're such happy cars.

    Other then that i'm not sure, I know I would give some money to charities like the SPCA and ARF and stuff like that. Totally give some to my best friend, and I guess after that live a happy and carefree life living off the interest of the millions that I have? with of course occasional trips to places I wouldn't mind going to and the odd addition or two to the goonies.
    Goonies never say die!



    Thanks Amy for the great sig!

    A LOT of it would go to the animal shelters around here, rescues, etc. Any place to help animals.

    Second, buy a home in the country. I would have a BIG ranch with rescued Golden Retrievers, and ones from responsible breeders. Maybe add a few Collies and Border Collies too.

    Third, open up my own rescue for unwanted/abused dogs.

    Next, spoil the dogs. (Obvious)

    Of course, after all that I would *try* to save a little for me.

    What my parents would do...

    1.) Pay off all credit cards
    2.) Pay off the house
    3.) Sell the house, buy a much bigger house out of state/in a good area
    4.) Buy a Harley Davidson Motorcycle. (my dad )
    5.) Put some away for College
    6.) Buy new furniture

    and the rest would be for fun spending, etc.

    my mom, 69, can finally really retire from that parttime, bloodsucking job, then she gets bionic knees, a ranch condo and her truck is paid off, and she finally gets all the clothes she wants. she grew up during the depression, was the oldest daughter, had a lot of duties to her family, including quitting school at 14(!) to start working , so the younger boys could go to school.. she married my father, had 4 kids, 2 handicapped, and worked like a pack horse since then. she really deserves good times.
    as for my job, well that much money would make those pesty annual reviews a lot easier wouldn't it?

    and golden endings, the local golden rescue would get anything they could think of.....

    Although I admire all your philanthropic donations and desires to help the people around you... am I the only one with dreams of a Rock-and-Roll, buttkicking, no-holds-barred fireworks show???

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.
