Default Lottery Fantasies ?

Have you ever watched a lottery winner make a public statement that they plan on doing everything the same, that they will continue to work & just bank the money What??? I know my husband would be singing Johnny Paycheck's song, "Take This Job & Shove It , the next day. ............ Say you win $10 mil. ( ya, I can dream can't I ) What would you do?...
Quit..move...start a dream business.... travel......hire George Clooney to be your only guest at your b-day party Dream big ladies

I would move my whole family to a warmer climate and make sure we could all enjoy life without having to work at a job we hated!! And I would buy 2 yorkies and donate to an animal shelter.

I would pay off my debt (and my SO's). Hook my family up . Quit my job and vacation for awhile. By a house, new cars, finish school, and hire a maid. I hate cleaning.

I would pay off my student loans first thing!! Would quit my job, buy a couple of new cars..help out my family, but not any of that you are my 4th cousin removed stuff...just my family as I know them now...LOL I would love to just be able to travel with my fiance and see everything!! Would find a great charity to donate to and would also love to open my own business when I eventually wanted to stay home from traveling the world. But darn it, you just reminded me that I didn't get a lottery ticket for tonight-dang!

I would invest a lot of it...pay off bills...start a trust fund for my kids...give mom some money and of course dad too...OH, and give 10% to my church.

One of my husband's coworker won $1,000,000 on a scratch off a few years ago...yeah, only $1,000,000 and she is still working to this day.

I would pay off my HUGE student loan, quit my job, buy a house, invest the money well so that I don't have to work again, and travel.

My friend won the $52 million dollar CA. lottery. Her husband continued to work till he retired. The bought two homes in Santa Barbara, another one in Lompoc, a big ranch in Lompoc and a mansion in VA. where she's from. Now they sold all the homes and have just the one they live in on shoreline drive. Their back yard looks out over the ocean. Anyway, after seeing how crazy they got buying so much, I have decided I would give most of it to people who need it. I would then just spend the rest of my life traveling the world, staying where I want for as long as I want before moving on to another place. I wouldn't want to just stay in one spot anymore.

I will pay off my debts, my family's debts, donate money/food to shelters in a long run, buy a house for me and my family, buy something that my husband really wants because he has been so good to me and have another dog to play with mine and continue to work until the day I know I have enough to spend for the rest of my life without having to worry one bit.

Actually...I've put a lot of thought into this very question...we're retired, not much to do!

Anyway, I have a very large family...6 sisters, 1 brother and I don't even know how many neices, nephews and great neices and nephews but...

First and foremost...I would find the very best medical care and advancements for Parkinson's patients and do whatever I could for my Dad.

We only owe a little on our house so we would pay that off, buy a waterfront home somewhere warm, get a new motor home and a few new cars.

Our son has some serious back issues so we would make sure he could retire early.

For all of our family members we would buy them a new home, new cars and pay any debts they have. For our younger neices, nephews and grandkids we would start a college fund and put some $$ aside for their future.

We would also pay off everything for our daughter-in-law's Mom. She's the nicest lady ever but circumstances have put her in a position where she will have to work forever...but not if I can help it!

I would make donations to as many non-kill animal shelters that I could and I would start some kind of program to benefit children in foster care.

So, there you have it...my waste some time, pie in the sky, high hopes and dreams...but, somebody's gotta win and it may just be me! Like they say...go big or stay home! Forget the lotto...you got your PowerBall ticket??

OMG!!!! I see a lot of you have already been making big plans ( hehe) Some of them are very detailed... I see you've been doing a lot of day dreaming It's great that a lot of you want to include family ( I just love that little character)

Are any of you actually playing on a regular basis?? You can't win if you don't play ( I just love his skinny little finger)

I'm in a lottery pool at work. We look forward to large powerball drawings. My job has become a source of stress this year and since I have back problems, stress just aggravates it. So I would LOVE to win the lottery--even if it was enough to pay off my student loans, I'd be happy Then I could bake dog treats full time
