I would buy a Boeing 757 and have John Travolta fly it and me to South Korea so that I can kick Vicente square in his nuts, then take his duck and return it to its rightful owner--Justin Bieber. On the return flight, I would have the plane locked on autopilot while John in taking a nap and exit the plane with my parachute, thus solving one problem and ridding another with one action.

Topic: What would you do if you won millions in the lottery? (Read 1366 times)
Let's say the economy pulls out of the shitter and 1% stable yearly interest is easy to come by from major banks. Also, let's say $80,000 yearly is enough for comfortable living in the U.S. Given that, 8 million in a bank would cover comfortable living with interest alone. If you put in 12 million, that's 120K yearly, etc. The rest could be used for business ventures and exotic vacations 
$50 Million Breakdown -
$10 Million - Savings: USD Cash ($1M), silver bullion ($2.5M), gold bullion ($3M), bitcoins ($2.5M), and "prepper commodities" ($1M)
$10 Million - Investments: Fund a few local business startups, buy some farmland, get $1 million worth of ASICs, etc.
$10 Million - Taxes: Probably no way to avoid this one
$5 Million - Fun Money: just spending on whatever. The first million will probably go pretty fast; after that, I'd probably hardly touch the rest (other than maybe starting a business.)
$15 Million - Giving Away: Gifts, charities, donations, and a tithe... from the lotto

How many millions are we talking? Even fantasies have to have some structure to them....
I was going to say "a million" but sometimes that would run out quick when dreaming so I left it open, some lotteries are like $60-mil and some lottomax's are like $300-mil so.. Imagine it's the lottery in your area.Why? are you the latest lotto max winner, about to tell us what you are gonna do with your 50 million?
Well I have my ticket, hopefully you're right!

I would die from shock or a heart attack 
I have thought about it and I would buy a mountain and build my living space inside of it. It's just a crazy idea I have.

I would buy bitcoins at a REALLY stupid high price to try and make them worth more!
How many millions?

I would invest it in this girl: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnqxBKNxkBw
I would honor all of Maria's pledges, hoping that she'll let me ride her. Then I would go to Texas and buy Atlas dinner. Then I would get an alpaca makeover. Then I would pay off theymos' college loan.
