if you hit the powerball for 146 million? lookin for honest anwsers here me personally would build a nice decent sized log cabin with about 50 acres of land by a lake, buy a couple cars and store them in my 20 car garage, invest some, throw some in the bank and live off interest, and just relax knowing i can go out on my back deck every morning, lay back, have a beer, and fish off the deck :blue: ---

Pay $73 mil in taxes. 🙂 Pay off the house - probably build a different one with a dream garage and lots of storage space and all the other stuff that we had to skip this time around. Save enough to pay for both college educations. Invest enough to live off the return. Buy car stuff. I don’t know if I could completely quit working, it would be weird. But I’d still give it a shot! ---

I would give a 150,000 to my closest friends, theres about 10 of them… Tell them to not spend it on anything meaningful, just to have fun with it (i.e. buy a car, go to a strip joint, etc…) and do it within a month. If they did that, I’d give them all another 150,000 for investments, house, whatever… The rest would go to a decent house for my mom, maybe $200,000, and one for my gram, another $200,000… I’d get me a couple of v8 s10’s, a ferrari, and a house with a huge garage. Basically, I would take about 3 or 4 million and do all that stuff above with it. The rest would be invested. I would still work, but I’d probably just work for min wage at my same job… FYI - Ithink the people that won in Butler county are smart… No news conference, none of that shit… Just give them their money and they’re OUTTTTTTTTTTt ---

First thing I’d do is call up my second job and tell them that I quit. Then, I’d pay off all my debt, buy property right on the beach in Florida, (not the gulf side, but ocean side), buy a nicer house in a nicer school district, pop out a couple kids, and then save the rest for the kids because god knows kids are expensive. 🙂 ---

If they did that, I’d give them all another 150,000 for investments, house, whatever… that’s too “Brewster’s Millions” for me 1. quit my job 2. buy a new house, not too big 'cause that’s just more to clean and more areas for my kids to hide when I need to beat then a little 🙂 3. buy a bunch of 0-2000 mile original muscle cars and beat the hell out of them like they were designed and built to do. 4. buy a bunch of cars that I like 64 galaxie, 64 thunderbolt and fix up my truck 🙂 5. spend my days enjoying my kids and my wife knowing that whatever we want we can have ( until we run out of money and end up on Jerry Springer 20 years later) 😃 ---
