If you win in the lotto, what are you going to do with your money?

I'm curious. If you win the lottery, how are you going to use the money? Are you going to share it with your relatives or friends? Try to open your hearts and check what your conscience tells you. If I win, I will keep almost all of it to myself and my family. I'm not going to donate it to charities because, I would rather give all the money from my salary than the money I won from lotto. I'll keep the money but then again, I'll continue to work and give most of my salary to charities.

I would - pay off my college, pay off my parents' house, save some money for my brother's college fund, buy myself an apartment, take a few friends on a shopping spree, buy something really nice for my boyfriend and of course, donate a lot of money to charities dedicated to helping animals and abused women and children.

I'm only 19. I don't plan on having kids until at least 5 years from now, probably closer to 10.

If were to win the lottery, I would pay off all my bills, buy a home for my family, give some to my parents, give some to my in laws, invest, and open a business. My husband and I have talked about this so many times. Too bad it'll probably never happen.

Oh yes if I was so lucky to win the lottery, I would share the money with my family and friends, I would give a portion to the charites though the ones that were good to me and my family, to show my apprecation for being there for me when I had to ask them for charity, as I was taught that do not forget where you came from and when you were down and had nothing to your name.

How about migrating to another country such as United States or Canada? If I won the lottery, I will definitely fulfill my dream to live in the U.S.

My partner and I have often wondered what we would do if we won a significant amount of money. Paying off our debts would be top of the list here, followed by maybe a modest holiday. We would want our families to benefit too, and set some aside for good causes.

I would give some to my family to help, and i would invest some. But I would take a big part and travel all over Europe with my children. We would buy a big RV and just go every where.

I thought about that question for quite some time. If I would win I'd give some of it to my family of course, because they took care of me and raised me and are still helping me and to my sister, because she's pregnant now and it would come in handy. Now me. I'd buy myself a really good car, change my wardrobe completely and in large quantities. Than I'd take some of my closest friends on a really cool holiday on my tab. Than I think I would give 3/4 money on a bank so that I couldn't draw money for a few years and in that time I would make a plan on how I would invest the money and not spent it foolishly. And of course if the prize in a lottery was high I'd buy myself a place that I'd be happy to call home:)
