the newest stuff is always way over priced,
pack up the cats the computers, move some place warm to live.

I would move into a bigger house so I could keep more pets, set up a trust fund for my neice, start a no kill shelter, build houses for my family, and get them all new cars, and put the rest away for a rainy day!

I would pay off all debts that my parents, brother and I have accumulated then buy my parents a new car and maybe buy myself a new house (I have never owned a house) I would probably adopt more pets and continue doing some volunteer work

I would pay off my (and my family's) debts, buy a nice but not extravagant house with some land, also start a no kill shelter and probably buy houses for my sisters and start a trust fund for my neice and nephew

Matt and I once talked about this and all he wants is a high diving board on the front lawn with no pool so people will know he is crazy

Now that would be worth winning the lotto for!


I'd be doing the same as most people here - pay off family's debts, trust fund for nephews, rescue lots of animals.

Think of all the good that would come of TCSers winning the lottery!

We had a guy here in Canada that won some money and he didn't tell his wife. He waited until they separated legally before cashing in his ticket - his wife contested it and I'm not sure, but I think the courts gave her half since they were still together at the time of the winning jackpot.

Oh yeah I remember that! What a prize that guy was.
$30 million he won, and he couldn't give his wife any?! Glad he cot fined.

Pay off student loan, DH's debt, & Mom's Debt. By mom a new place with a maid & fix up the old house to sell it. By all 3 of us cars. All 7 cats would get a full work up(blood & scans). Donate & invest. I guess pay MIL's debt too and new house since I am married now.

First thing? Practice saying no to the myriad of relatives asking for a handout.

Then pay off the debts, build a nice house, hire a gardener so mom can still enjoy the daylilies, and me a pool boy - even though there's no pool.

I'd take care of the debts of myself, parents, brother and sister. Get myself a house and build a fish house so I can have more and more fishies. I think I would still keep my job but I wouldn't work another day or hour of overtime in my life.

I would pay off ALL our debts, and also every bill we got!! I would probly buy my mom a house and give her some $$$, I would make sure every animal shelter got some money, and hopefully be able to build me some sort of rescue/refuge for all the unwanted creatures(big and small)

in a pile of open toed shoes!
ok 150 mill?

I'd build my own home, in this area, but outside of the city....with lots of extra space/areas to foster some kitties. And of course it would have all the needed stuff, a pool, fireplace, hot tub, a few extra bedrooms....walk in closets, the works....and we would want the house to be kitty friendly, lots of holes and walkways between rooms & stuff, maybe their own "kitty condo bedroom" where the walls are made of cat paths!

pay off my debt/cars etc....buy a SUV for me (so I don't have to borrow DH's)

pay off my parents home, my sisters home, my sil's home, buy my baby sister a house.....pay off their debts

go on a vacation all around the world....Africa, Australia, Europe, Tahiti.....and of course bring the felines!


buy a shore home, somewhere close enough to either drive or fly.....
build a cabin in the Pocono's (I own an empty acre of land there....)

invest a big chunk....

start a trust for Jazzy.....

donate some.....

hmmmm....maybe a little lipo?!?!
followed up with a HOT personal trainer.....

I would take care of my family & friends, and then open up a nationwide non profit cat rescue and name it "Susie's Kitties" We turn away no one! (of course now, that lotto would have to be a big WAD)
