Just for fun..

Just for grins and giggles what would you do if you won the powerball tomorrow? (Always fun to dream when it gets this big)

Since I started the thread Ill lead off;
Move to the mountains with acreage and a nice shop
Join the Justins in the 400+whp club
Pay off parents/friends houses (with a few minor conditions)
Bigger car trailer
Build a couple new race cars
Build up my DD to monster power levels
Donate a large portion to charity every year (probably live off the interest alone)

I would pay off a few bills , build a new house , buy the 1200 acre farm across from me and enjoy life . I would still work , but not 6 days a week . My wife wants to open a shelter for horses and other large animals , so I guess we would .

I like that idea! Sounds like my wife as well. Have to bring the kids and grand kids along as well. Good luck to all, hope someone we know will win!

if i didn't earn it,then i don't want it.


besides we'd just get bored guys.family and loved ones,that's the real stuff.$ sucks.the more you make,the more you want to spend.it's a viscus cycle of which you'll never win.don't dream too large,or you'll miss out on the real life.

I'd educate myself so I would t have to have some stiff manage it for me then I'd do good things. Help charities probably start a scholarship program and to be honest spending some on my self wouldn't be a bad thing either but hand outs are tough for me to take so if I did win I feel like I have a responsibility to improve others lives as well.

I like fordidipower's answer.....But I would spend some on myself too...A few new sprint cars and Hot rods. Then set up a bunch of charities and stuff like the animal shelters, food bank, children's hospital and Good stuff like that. Then spend tome traveling the world.

Well if I was old enough to play(up to 17 now!) I would finish my truck, buy a 6.4 and have two completely badass trucks, both of which could show up all the rich farmers sons, duramaxes (duramaxi?), that's the thing around here, dang kids don't work for nothing, and buy some ground for farming, and not have to go to college for engineering anymore!
