I never play but I caved in and bought 3 tickets. I would pay off my older son's student loan, pay for my younger son's college tuition. I would donate to animal rescue groups and pay off my mortgage and invest some. Good luck to everyone!

LOL

! Love it.

I would pay off all the houses of our immediate family, and give them some fun money. Set up college trusts for all our neices and nephew.

I'd give a buttload (I'm not sure how much that is) to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary bc I adore that place and what they do. Maybe I could buy them a new facility at another location in the US - so there would 2 sanctuaries. Yeah that!

We'd travel, enjoy, give away money. And, I'd buy a dang Hermes Birkin bag in every size!

I bought tickets

Lately, the way work/life has been going if I won I would buy an island and go into hibernation..lol

WE did buy a couple quick picks, but if we did win anything, I hope it wouldn't be the entire amount. Anyway, if we ever did win a large amount of money, we would give it where it's needed the most and that would be our headache, just finding the right places it would do the most good. Not to friends or family. We don't even put our boys in our will. We would rather that they remain the close friends that they are now. I know all too well how leaving things to kids can make them enemy's with each other.

Hubby just got back from buying our tickets. If I win, I would make a giant pile of $100 bills in my front yard and roll around in it naked. Then I would use the leaf blower to blow the money into the air for the crowd that gathered to watch my spectacle. Not sure what I would do after this but boy I would be a legend!

So.. I was thinking. Would you come forward with your winnings? I think I would want to claim it anonymously..... but I'd end up getting too excited and tell everyone, and then it would be pointless!

Selfishly, no I would not come forward because I would not want my simple life to change, just be more generous.

No, you're not the only one. I bought my first tickets today, and had to do them over because I didn't know you had to use a pencil. Also, I had all six numbers on the top part...I didn't know that one number had to go on the bottom.

I was so disappointed when I learned that you cannot claim a lottery prize anonymously. To claim a big prize, you are legally obligated to participate in one press conference and you must allow the lottery to use your name in advertising. That is why I'm going to send my father when I win tonight!

I would donate more to Yorkie Talk, Pay all members' vet bills and see all dogs were vetted, build a state of the art vet facility complete with MRI and labs, rehab and boarding and rescue. Special flight facility to fly pups and owners in for treatment and a hotel for them to stay in for free while getting treatment.

Then I'd buy a house, and an island, and a car or two.

Winning ticket was sold in Maryland! 2, 4, 23, 38, 46 & 23

I DID buy tickets and got my "money's worth" of dream time! The dream included family, friends, charities, and of course YORKIES!!! Seymour was really wanting a fancy collar with a little bling!

It also involved a bigger RV and a home built completely grandkid & yorkie friendly!

............ but alas, we are still here, not building or buying or giving this morning! Hopefully the people who won are enjoying and sharing to the MAX!!! ..............

BabyGirl Rosie · 03-31-2012, 05:09 AM

We bought a ticket!

DH says to tell all of you to give up because it is ours.

He looked up about making donations. Do you know if you donate more than "x" amount of dollars the government taxes you 55%!!!!!!!!!!!

I almost passed out! I hope I am telling you correctly, I think that is what he said. Ha ha.
