Real Estate or Farm Land are the best investments you can make. He will end up getting paid back more than what he paid. Smart guy.

We're all allowed to have a laugh when one of the luckiest dopes on the plant falls a**-backards into $600m+ and starts blowing it.

A $47m house and compound in LA, like wtf are you going to do with that as your third house? Play hide and go seek?

Dude probably has so much he doesnt know what to do with it.

Dude. Put the money in a high interest account and live off of the interest.

Or do like I advised about getting a huge windfall: bank it, live off the lump sum only and never pay income taxes again. Any descendants can split what is left.

Sounds like he just invested his money and didn’t actually spend it

Buy multiple houses?


What I don't get is buying multiple houses in the same city

I could see buying several in different areas of the country

If you think buying multiple houses is insane when you have hundreds of millions of dollars you might actually be an idiot

So if he dumps his actual winnings into a 3% guaranteed return every year, he earns about $19 million on that annually. I’d say he’s doing ok. I

this would definitely be my play after paying off debt and buying a nice, but modest, house.



Some of y'all are hysterical. The guy walked with $632 MILLION. He's not going broke in his lifetime. His children won't be broke in their lifetime. This guy has a net worth $200 million MORE than Shaq. This guy has more money than most of the biggest entertainers and business people of all time. There are only about 6000 people worldwide with a net worth north of $500,000,000. This guy is set. Don't worry about his well being.

You must be very stupid, I'm older, wiser and more successful than you. Nothing this guy has done is unwise. Posting a "burning his money up" thread shows how stupid the OP is, too. Nothing but jealousy. Guess Saban is burning up his money by buying multiple homes including his latest at $17,000,000. Guess he's young and dumb though.

I doubt you are older than me. I know you are not wiser than me. And if you are bragging about having more money than me, well that’s on you. BTW I have not one time said the guy was doing anything wrong. Maybe read the whole thread before you start smarting off…

read "after taxes" in the first sentence.


I’ve never played the lottery. I assumed the lump sum was already taxed. Didn’t know they taxed the lump some

My bad.

Yes they do. But it’s still better to have the lump sum. You have all the power then.

Hey dude, I have nothing against you. You came in at me with the smartass comment. You know nothing about me. Don't think for a second you're wiser. Never said I had more money. I said I'm more successful which is one of the many things that make me wiser than you. Go spin comments somewhere else.

Well he’s going to also have a few million bucks a year in expenses on those houses between property taxes, insurance, utilities, and upkeep.
and he will be making a few million per month if the rest of his capital is just sitting in a savings account.
