I was driving through Virginia this past weekend and noticed the mega millions lottery is worth 44 million dollars!!! WOW. The next drawing is tonight too. So i was wondering How would you spend this much money!? Would you be generous and give to family, friends and charity? Or would you buy big mansions and a lot of hot Italian sports cars?!
I would try to do both and then invest a huge portion of my winnings!!

44 million... it was very nice.
But in my oppinion anyone who have that kind of money should be very carefull with that, in the way of spend it.
You now that if you but a house of, let´s say, 5 million , you have to pay a lot to mantain it, maybe in one year you can easely spend 1 million more with that house (i guess so).
Investements could leave you to bankrupcy...
I like the idea of being generous to the family. Buy a house (but not very big) and buy a car (a nice one - maybe a Jaguar or Rolls Royce).
The rest of the money is good to be on a bank , and it should do to get around 5.000 doll month in incomes.
Thats what i would do.

you're right.. things could add up and get expensive. having that much money can be overwhelming im sure! (i wouldn't really know, lol)
but definitely investing and putting money in the bank is a good way to keep your money growing.

I would do what I'm doing now but probably be all over the country and world if that be the case. For one, I'd have to give Caesar(the IRS)their 30-35% and that's 12-16 million and that's not bad so I would seek the advice of a financial planner and the following I would do.
1. tithe and offering 4.5 million tithe and 2.3 offering
2. divide between my mom,daughters and granddaughter as well as brothers and nephews.
3. put some for me for the rest of my life.
4. help those who could use the help. for one, I know a lady who lost her husband and she has five kids, I'd help her for a while. I'd help those pensioners in my city who lost their pensions. a lady I worked with,I would make sure she get the help she needs. help my boyfriend and move on.
