At those numbers who cares about inflation.
Spend it like a drunken sailor

Last weekend I told my wife we would have to find a way to spend $189,000 a week for the rest of our lives.

Based on the fact we are pushing 60, that has probably doubled by this afternoon.

Its nice to dream.

“At those numbers who cares about inflation.

Correct.

A person would have to work full time to spend that much money...likely for the rest of their lives.

Buy real property. Personal property. Anything.

So much work to spend that much. And when you’re done you’re still worth 10’s of millions. Or more.

Honestly, how many $10,000 bottles of wine can one drink? How many homes can one own? How many miles can one travel?

If I don’t win it, and ONLY if I don’t win it, I hope some E-4 in the Navy wins it after his first WestPac. At least then we’ll know it was well spent.
