What would you do if you purchased a lottery ticket and waited a few to days to find out if you won and BAM you were the lucky winner of 132 Million dollars. What would you do with the money first? But of course before that guess who gets paid first the IRS. So now you have already shared your money with others and you have not even spend a dime yet, because the IRS has taken some and has just given it to others. But even after all the drama what would buy or do first?????????

If i happent to win a lottery i wont be spending the sum as such on luxuries rather i would invest the same in a balanced portfolio which would generate regualar income for me on a continual basis. I would use this income for me and my family. I believe that god doesn't offer such things now and then and when he provides one i need to use it in the best possible manner.

You are correct God does not offer things now and then, but if the opportunity ever happend for us, I know that I would do the right thing and pay off bills, and take care of my children, and definately invest. Of course you know everyone in the past would find their way back into your life somehow.

I agree, I would pay off all my debts and mae sure that I have a nice home to live in. Nothing outrageous just a nice home with the proper ammenities. I live in the country now and all I would want would really be to either fix up the house that we are in now or rebuild another and rent this one out. It doesn't belong to me but my mother in law (who we are caring for-you know a trust home). Even if it doesn't become ours I would still like to fix it up because it should stay in the family. And build our own they way I want it.

With that kind of money I could pay off all my debts and bills, and maybe even get a new car too, but I would have to invest too, something secure to the money invested would provide me with an income to I can continue to pay my bills
