Actually, I was kind of glad that my ticket didn’t win. I don’t normally play, but it was huge fun planning on what I would do with the money. Cheap entertainment.

I got all of my family and co-workers out of debt and set up a great charity foundation. But the repercussions could be deadly.

Maybe I’ll just play for a smaller jackpot that would be low key and secure my future. I could always do the same things...just on a smaller scale. Besides...balancing a bank statement would be a b1tch. :)

“Maybe I’ll just play for a smaller jackpot...”

Yeah - just stick to the million dollar ones!

Interesting though - there were quite a few million dollar winners from this. Although I imagine they will be famous in their own circle of friends. Although for most people a million dollars would be great to have and probably be life-changing - a million dollars doesn’t go as far today.

Donate to the church, pay off the kid’s student loans, pay off the home and car loans (or buy some decent new cars) and maybe the kid’s houses, and put the rest into an account for retirement. (Hmm - retirement savings. Might have to just give the kids a gift to go towards a home.)
