I would put 50 percent into waterfront property, lots, and farms all over the world... and land outside of cities. I would take 25 percent and invest in Google, 25 percent and take the other 25 percent to Berkshire Hathway or AG Edwards. After a few years of work (five or less) and keeping a low profile, I shall have enough money for my taxes to pay for themselves and enough to live off of the interest and investments, once taxes are paid on all of it. Once that is taken care of, I shall also have enough money and time to start a property management/real estate company of sorts, which would grant me access to government grants and reimbursements. Then once I feel like I don't need to keep busy anymore, I would either sell the company and travel around participating in and developing charity organizations, leaving the adjusted equivelent to the 30 million I had won years earlier to my closest family member and enough to cover some tuition on any grandchildren or such. I would purchase Phish and make them tour. While having someone grow mad weed. In fact, at that point, I would be so rich that I would make the boys from Vermont grow their own strains of weed for me.
I would give a lot of money to my mom and like to organizations fighting for human rights, the environment.. things like that and I would travel and travel and travel and travel and travel and travel...
u ppl realise that the 'money' u give to charity doesnt actually go to help. like 50% of it goes to selfish twats pockets. it be better if u bought 1mill rice bags and bought them to afrika and gave em out urself. i would builg my perfect mansion, buy some rides, have huge grounds to ride about in in a humvee with a minigun strapped to it, get a whole room covered in guns, then get like a room filled with weed, kinda like the place in half baked, wwhen theire robbing that experimentation place, fuck me just live the life.
if you were thinking of buying a nice waterfront house, your way under the price range. think more along the lines of 1-10 mill
I'd knit it all together into a giant quilt and burn it in front of starving people. or buy a shit ton of acid, move to amsterdam, and who knows what happens from there out?
Which is why putting time and money live8 and most aids prevention charities can be like fucking for virginity, these days, in parts of Africa. But... who says your charity can't just hand out bags of rice to people. At least give it to them in quantities that aren't that huge so they won't sell it or hijack it like they did with those food exchange programs in Iraq and Iran and using it to launder oil money...
The lottery is a tax on those bad at math. You have the same chance of winning whether or not you play.
More... There have been times in my life, back in my drug-abusing days, where if I had won the lottery I would have been dead inside a month, tops. I read a story about the 2nd big winner when CA started having a lottery. He was an illegal alien and he got deported back to his hime town, a small city in Mexico. With like 5 million bux. When he got back he bought the nicest place in town, got himself a Mercades covertable and a SUV. He threw parties constantly and overnight became the most popular person in town and the chicks were all over him. You might think swell, huh? Made in the shade with lemonade, right? Nope. Because the former most popular guy in town was PISSED OFF. Suddenly he was Mr. Lonely. He ended up going to the guys house and shooting and killing him. So winning the lottery probably caused the lottery winner to die. If he hadn't won he'd probably still be in L.A., working a dead-end job but at least ALIVE. And in my book, being poor and alive is better than being a dead rich guy.
Yeah, the lottery is pretty dirty. And depending on how Orwellian you're feeling, it's downright class warfare. Ever see the people that buy loads of scratch-off lotto tickets? Always the poorest, dumbest people.
buy 15 million dollars worth of weed and 10 million on hallucinagins and 5 million on cigarettes haha
I'd make a list of all the bad thing's i've done and try and make up for them. hello, my name is earl.
I would buy: The house across the street from me that's on sale --- $500,000. Buy A 2007 Volvo S80 V8 -- $60,000 Put the rest in the bank, quit my job, drop out of college, and just hang out. Of course I'd hook up my friends too, and buy mad bud, but idk how much I'd actually spend on bud. I'm not just gonna go buy a pound of it, it'll all go stale before it got used, I'd rather buy like an ounce at a time, that way it's always at least somewhat fresh. Wow, thinking about having thirty million dollars just makes my insides smile. lol
Haha. Now that's painting Jersey with words, man. I live in Virginia... my neighbor owns seven Volvos, including his sons Volvos. In fact, he's outside working on his XC70 Crosscountry right now. I drive an '04 VW Jetta VR6...
id buy my camero that i badly want and about 1 million dollars worth of pot. id buy the best coke and acid out the ass! and fuck achohol lol id be busting in hell drunk of my ass and a beer in my hand and scream:WHat a fucking ride that was down there on that earth.
meh, volvos are alright. i really like the 2001 or so v-70 turbo. my stepmom has one. and also the s-60 sport edition, those are badass. i drive me a '06 scion tC. i absolutely love it and have not had one problem with it, except that one time i got in a wreck.
