Buy private hunting ranches in Montana, Colorado, and Texas. When I was not hunting or fishing, I would play golf.

I'd give most of it away. I am happy with what I have.

Hire someone to shitpost on the OT and PT as me to reach 1 million posts.

Maybe buy TD, and reopen some of “lost” threads and start a babe of the week post of artsy nude photography to avoid the Louisiana porn law. It is not pornography if it is art.

Why would you need health insurance if you won the lotto?

1.6 million cubic yards of dirt.
30k yards of high lime concrete.

That's merely the foundation.

I would like to travel continuously. Never sleep in the same bed twice. Jetset it actoss.the globe. Fish, wander, eat, learn. I don't have any interest in material stuff and no kids to leave it all to, so why not see the world until i die?

I would donate half of the funds to a cause that I consider important, purchase a house on approximately 100 acres of land, and maintain a lifestyle similar to my current one, albeit more comfortable and distanced from a population with whom I find myself increasingly disconnected with each passing day.

Main problem with most of those people is they went and told EVERYONE they won the lottery. Only people I would tell are the ones I give money too. Rather than lump sum it would be monthly payments. They would have to sign an NDA with certain conditions listed.

...how would you use the money?



Take care of the very few family and friends that are in my inner circle that have always been there for me. Start my own organization locally to help Veterans and children of Veterans. Of course the obvious things. Top notch motorhome for tailgating, a suite in Tiger Stadium and the Box. Other than that the only things I would want to do is travel.

In Louisiana they have to disclose who won. From what I understand you can kind of hide it by claiming as a corporation, but people can and will figure it out. You would almost certainly have to leave your home town, I know I would. Too many people know me, can rarely leave the house without running to people that know me and my family.

I think I'd probably buy a house closer to work in west Georgia so I don't have to drive through Atlanta twice a day going to work and then coming home.

Take $18 million and buy Mar-a-Lago.

That will result in a nice little return on investment

#1 Get out of debt.

#2 Buy a new but reasonable home and vehicle.

#3 Invest the rest and never spend the principle. You spend the income / dividends off of your investments.

Spending the principle is how you go broke.....

Buy some rental properties, dividend stocks, and or a profitable business or 2 that's already rolling.
