If you won the lotto, what would you do with the money?

hmm that is a very nice sum ...let's see I would buy a new house 1,000,000 2 brand new cars 500,000 set aside 1,000,000 for each of our children = 3,000,000 1,000,000 for my parents , another 1,000,000 for the rest of the family to share 1,500,000 to charity 3,000,000 to buy a second house in the south of France for vacations with all that money I can retire and pamper family and friends .... I might buy a horse ,, I always dreamt of having a horse ... but I can't even ride LOL nice dream

wow that would be about €28,000,000. Well I'd pay off our mortgage, credit card and loans. I wouldn't go public ( I'd get a lot of unwanted friends lol), would deposit some money into all my family and friends bank accounts anonymously, and I would pay off my siblings mortgages and buy houses for those who don't have one. I'd put cats eyes on every road in Ireland, the roads are much worst than they are in Northern Ireland. I go to collage and open a craft shop which is badly needed here. Obviously I'd make sure my kids were well looked after. And after a holiday that took in Las Vegas ( so I could see Gunter Von Houten's exhibition) and Italy ( yes for the food mmmm) I'd come home to build an Eco efficient home in a village that I love that's not far from me, well village is too strong a word, town-land just about covers it, and when the council refuses me because I'm not from the area I'd take them to court (as I could afford it) their for hopefully changing legislation for all those who can't afford to fight the Council. Thats a start for me for now. lol So what would you do??

Probably I will too much under pressur about so much money to know exactly what is the the best thing to do. I'll stop to work every day to think how to organize the money and spend a big part of them. I think is enough to not be in trouble for the life.

First off, I would make sure we were totally out of debt. Pay the house off, the loan, credit cards. I would send for the rest of my things from Alaska. I would pay off my brother's house. Send 2 airline tickets to my best friend so that she and her hubby can come over for a visit. We would buy our retirement home on the Isle of Skye. Get hubby a new motorcycle. Get a motorhome to tour Europe in. Give some money to environmental groups that I belong to. Must help Mother Nature. Sit on the rest for a bit to enjoy our golden years.

First let me say that i really dont agree with huge jackpots. I feel that it would be better to have more small ones= it would benefit more people hehe that said I would take care of me and my family first. WEll actually the first thing I would do was to buy a house - a bit tired of having to share this house with my in laws hehe - then I think I would create a non profit organization that could actually help other people - not sure in what field, but I would find one that really interests me. After that I am not really sure. I dont play often, but sometimes I do. I understand that what makes people buy tickets is the appeal of big jackpots but I am really feel that more people would be happy if they could have more winners of a nice - not huge - jackpot.

I would keep half the money with me, start a business or invest it in some good schemes till i develop a sense on how to put it to some good use. This is because the fortune that i earn should not only stay where it is, but it's expansion would really help. And about the other half, i believe i would give it to charity, as earning a huge amount would take lot of time, but all this has been won by luck. So it should also open some luck for others who have been unfortunate in life!!! Thanks.

I would buy 2 lovely houses next door to each other so as my parents( now both have Alzheimer's) could stay next door to me , It would give them privacy but I wouldn't have to travel every day and I could just pop in and out when need be xx we can but dream xx

Well...first, I buy my mom a house and lot being a gift to her;) then put the other at the bank and I donate to the home for the agent the other, and the last one giving an scholarship to those talented student's who didnt afford the tuition fees;) ( Loooolllls...)

I would build a palace for you my princess to live in filled with millions of specially grown black roses, you could have the best dungeon in the world with everything you enjoy in there playtime would be such fun for all. I would build a granny flat for the visitors that mite decide to come and stay, and a wonderful fantasy playgound for the children to be able to play safely in, Then i would put a few quid away for a rainy day and give the rest to the world aids foundation in the hopes that one day they will find a cure, ok so untill the day comes when all this happens i'll keep buying lottery tickets lol blessed be tc xxxlove ya

first, pay off my bills. second, set up investments so I have money available for a long time. third, make a significant gift to my church. fourth, help out my family and a few friends. fifth, make a few other gifts to services I believe are valuable in this community and which are good stewards of money. of course, very first thing - I would have to pay taxes which would be significant. But it would not be as much as they could be because I would have obtained a financial advisor and a tax advisor to minimize the tax bill.

Take care of debts, the people that matter to me, give a certain amount to Children's Mircle Network and Children's Specialized hospital of Westfield Mountainside NJ. But the first thing I would do is consult someone I felt could be trusted for financial planning, for investment, savings, and donations, and spendings. I know of a very reliable accountant one that has proven his worth over the years, so that would be important to me. I would also then feel a need to learn something about financial planning myself, since it is important to know and understand the issues in your own life so I would likely use some of the money to go back to college.

Sometimes me and my husband would talked about it just for fun. When i will won that big, i will build my own comfortable house, a good busines, share with my family and friends, give to charity and enjoy life... Thats so good. I like it.

I would give half of it to charity. The remaining 50% for the following: 1)I'll put some for my children's education, because that is the only true riches I can give them. 2)I'll by a house just big enough for my family. 3)a car, nothing fancy, just as long as it is durable. 4)Put up a small business where we can get our daily needs in life. 5)The remaining money shall go my relative and my husband's relative, we'll try to help them out get into gear in their life. I really didn't feel like living luxuriously, I'm a simple person with simple needs.

i never be seen a dream of such amout of money that i can be win this high amount. if i can win this large money then i am fully spend to this money to the welfare of other poor people,for example:-invest in making a hospital for poor people which have no money,open some buisness for given employment to the poor people,some money invest for reasearch of new medicine of a serious diseases. i doesnot want this money for me because i am capable to earn money to my capability and honesty so i can fully spend this money to poor people. bye

I would pay of the House for my Son and I would make sure that my Kids are ok I would help Friends that are in need and if there is anything left for me thats a Bonus. I would pay my Bit of as well of course but I would make sure that my Kids and Friends are ok. And I am not just saying this. I have always said that, the same if my Book should be published and sell the money will go to my Kids.
