Depending on the amount, I'd build an anarchist community of some description, large enough for a lot of people: a nice piece of land, some housing, communal facilities etc...

Probably give my brothers and my sister a bundle of cash so they can pay off their debts and live comfortably.

Other than that, I don't really want for much. Maybe an iPad...

Well charity begins at home so I'd sort out my family and friends and invest in a few, local charities, too much money gets wasted in huge charities. Then, I'd buy a big house, nice car, nice stuff ect and just enjoy the rest of my life.

Still no high speed internet huh... :24::24::24:

Cheap !@#$%^& :D:D:sarcasm

Bwahahahahaha..... I'd be too busy traveling and shopping and having fun to even sit down long enough to be on the internet. :D

...... of course, when I would eventually live in my brand new home high on a hill with a view to kill..... I imagine I'd find the time to inquire about high speed internet. Perhaps I'd even buy my very own satellite to view it from. ;)

CONGRATULATIONS!!! You just won the lottery

So, let's say you just won some sort of lottery and walked away with $200 Million.

What would you do?

If I walked away with $200 Million, I would custom design a house to be built on the Oregon coast. I would also buy a cabin in the mountains.

I would also pay off all debts that my friends and loved ones have and hook them up with some extra money. Then, I would invite as many people as I know to a HUGE party that would be on a cruise ship!

I also would do research into charities and make large donations to them.

I also would do a "change a random person's life day." LOL. I would look for a homeless person and hook them up with a motel, new clothing and one million dollars.

I would then spend the rest of my life just writing ... fiction and music.



What would you do?

Re: CONGRATULATIONS!!! You just won the lottery

1. Visit the most high powered law firm in the city and set up a judgement proof trust.

2. Help out some deserving family members.

3. Travel the planet first class.

Re: CONGRATULATIONS!!! You just won the lottery

I'd buy a big house far out somewhere up a hill where I can't be bothered by anyone.

Then I'd buy a few more houses and do them up and sell them or rent them out to people. To have some kind of income.

I'd give my family some too obviously, as well as causes I like. Buy a load of new clothes, and gadgets. Everything I could ever want basically.

Re: CONGRATULATIONS!!! You just won the lottery

I would:
  • Buy a massive house. With a massive library.
  • Go on holiday
  • Buy books (got to fill the library!)
  • Pay to be in a Doctor Who episode
  • Give money to charities/organisations. Especially to: Straight Talking, RSPCA, Refuge, Rape Crisis, Marie Stopes and Samaritans.
  • Learn to drive and buy a car.

Re: CONGRATULATIONS!!! You just won the lottery

Pay off all my debt, and my mom's debt.
Travel all over the world, and hit each country (well, most of them) at least once.

I'd buy a kilo of pure cocaine and party until I drop dead... naked in a pile of blood soaked cash

Re: CONGRATULATIONS!!! You just won the lottery

I would also move all my friends and their families to some compound type deal (so we could all have our own houses), in a mutually agreed upon location, and make it so that none of us would ever have to work we could just hang out and be awesome.

That would be cool! Unless you have parents like "Everybody Hates Raymond." LOL
