Good call on buying the local PoPo! ! ! You know how movie stars sometimes get those cars built all custom for their part in the movie? I get some cars built all customized for me. I get a Prelude because I love them and have always wanted one. I'd get an M3. How I'd have these cars designed, I don't know because I don't know much about the production cars but I'd learn when I go to the dealership. As far as what I would drive everyday, that's a touch call. I know that I'd pick up a Ducati 999R. MMMMMM. I would obviously keep hooking up my Accord to the point where there would be nothing I couldn't do to anymore...If that's possible. I would put myself through school. I would love to be a lawyer. But, I wouldn't be a mean one. I would open something that serves a coffeehouse during the day where you can just chill and read but then at night, it turns into a bar. Of course, I would gave my family some # and spoil them.

Here's what I don't get. The jackpot was for 315 million. But he gets a lump sum of 170 million. What up with that? And that 170m is before taxes. How come he doesn't get 315m if that's the jackpot?

because its 315mill over x amount of years. where as the lump sum they have to pay all at once. i'd take it over years though. its guerenteed income, and with a income of 315 mill over 40 years or so, you get finaced for just about anytihng.

Ahhhhh. Ok, thanks I don't know what I would do. I would probably take it over the years too so I wouldn't blow it all and be stupid. This dude is old though so maybe that's why he took the lump sum. It would be losing money to just take the lump sum and I'm not down with that.

I've just decided that I would buy my place of employment and fire everyone that has given me shit. Or I would just pile insane amounts of work on them.

Hmmm well I would buy some nice stuff for myself/family for sure. Ya know...cars, houses, bling bling lol haha.
I would invest some. and a big portion would go to support the people/friends/church that have helped me and my family out through the years. I think that since you have that kind of money it would be nice to help out others too. |
