A top hat could be substituted for the captains hat, but people might think Scruffy was selling peanuts.

Well, you are under the assumption that Scruffy isn't going to just put it all under his mattress.

great answer, but i'd probably only give about 25% to my local church. i'd keep about $10m for myself to live comfortably. the rest would go directly into the pockets of every influential politician possible to help keep legalized marijuana OUT of the place i love, the great state of louisiana.

As long as they don't dickride Scruffy for his money, they can call him Mr. Peanut all they want.

If I was stupid enough to pay the idiot tax, I would accept it under an anonymous trust. I'd give my parents 10 million, my sister 10 million, and put 10 million in a trust for my niece.

I'd buy a nice condo, some nice home office furniture, and keep doing my job. My vacations would be nice, but I'd do some very safe investments and probably use it to open up my own accounting firm one day.

Depends if I win it outright or have to split it with 18 other people in my office.

First, buy house for myself.
Second, fund my kids college.
Third, buy a ton of rental property and set up a management company. Hire my sister to run the company and pay her about $150k a year. This way I can funnel money to her and not use any of my gift tax exemption.

So your pastor/reverend/priest can have that Gulfstream he's always needed to do the Lord's work.

You're the worst accountant in the world if you believe that would be a valuable way to spend your time.

I'm going to double my money by investing it all in a little business idea that I dream about.

Buy a mercenary army and end ISIS. Burying one a-hole after another in pig graves.

That would cost a lot more than 200 million.

Job one is to shop the ticket around to venture capitalists. I'd be willing to split 25% of the cash value in exchange for preserving my complete anonymity. After that, generous gifts to immediate family to keep everybody happy. About 25% of it to charity. I'd buy an LSU football suite, and tickets to all the LSU sports. I'd travel a lot, and other than that, my lifestyle wouldn't change much.

But I'm not buying a ticket. The only place that sells them is out on the highway, and I'm too lazy to drive all the way over there
