What would you do if you won the Megamillions?

Here's my plan:

1) quit my job, or maybe work part time until they could replace me
2) buy a new house in the rich part of town, pay off my current mortgage & rent out my current house
3) buy up all the now vacant property on the main drag & build my own huge state of the art rooftop gym like on the TLC show (under the gym would be locker rooms, maybe a few classrooms, parking & upscale retail clothing shops)
4) donate a ginormous amount of money to the SPCA
5) pay off all my family & friends' debts
6) buy a vacation home in Aruba

That's everything I've been dreaming about in the last week. ;-)
 
After the "usuals" I would open up many many animal shelters where no animal would be put down. I would hire trainers/vets etc to keep them happy and healthy. Worldwide, of course. Also, help save the tigers and all the endangered animals. I would do mostly animal charities with all the money.
 
you mean WHEN I win the megamillions! There is a group of us at work who have been carrying on about this all week! Here's what I'll do with my money:
1. Send my 3 kids to the colleges of their choosing
2. Oh wait, first I'll talk to a finance person who can help me do what I want without blowing it all
3. Hopefully, quit my job and travel,travel, travel with my DH.
4. Fly to FLorida whenever I want to visit my Dad.
5. I know there's ooddles more, but I don't want to get too worked up!

Give all away to charity!! I swear that $$ is cursed when you keep it for yourself.

I've been thinking about this for the past few weeks and here is what I would do:

1: quit my job or only agree to stay on if I can work from home.
2: pay off my mortgage and put on a second floor (we own a ranch).
3: buy two new vehicles: one, a two-seater convertible. I don't have it narrowed down to which one exactly. And two, a Land Rover or Range Rover. Not quite sure which one it is that I like, but I'll know it when I see it.
4: buy a beach house.
5: pay off my parents mortgage and any bills they have. And buy them the log cabin of their dreams.
6: take an extended vacation in Disneyland.

LauraMax, I will be in Aruba the end of April if you would like me to scout out some vacation homes for you!! ;-)

I would not work my current job, like it but not the stress

Give TONS & TONS of money to church & pet shelters

Would open a few more pet shelters that are like homes for the animals

Payoff all my families debt

Invest some

GIVE TON & TONS more to charities & more animal shelters

Then, I would have to think & give more away!
 
Wow! I would....

Donate , are we talking mega millons?, after taxes I would donate half to Crouse Neonatal Intensive Care, which saved my daughter's life, born at 1 lb. 5 oz.

I would take care of family, and boy, live a good life! Altough, I am still blessed, without it! :)

BOOOO! No mega for us either...and I was seriously holding my breath there ;) Yeah, yeah, we'll try again.

Have a friggin' heart attack and die before I had a chance to even THINK about what I'd do with the $$$$$$$!!!


:7 :eek: :7 :eek: :7 :eek: :7 :eek: :7 :eek: :7 :eek: :7
 
First, I'd buy my Mom a Condo....as she's getting too old to take care of her house. Then I'd buy myself a new house in town and also buy one out close to Las Vegas (love the desert weather). Of course, both homes would have outrageous home gyms in them with everything a fitness freak could ever dream of. I'd give money to the people I care about in my life and donate lots to certain charities. I would not work in my current profession but I'd do something that I'd actually enjoy. I'd also hire a cook, and housekeeper and maybe a personal trainer.

Dream on........................
 
1) Quit my job and not work until they could replace me. I would leave process guides for them, though.
2) Buy a ranch with a lot of land, someplace warm.
3) Pay off the mortgages of every member of my family (including the in-laws)
4) Buy some horses for my new ranch
5) Start a home for animals in need. I want more dogs and cats...I have an awful time walking by and not taking them home when I see them at PetSmart.
6) Hire a maid and a cook and a personal trainer
7) Go on a couple month vacation around the world. Maybe buy a home in another country, so my daughter can see that the world is much different than what she sees
 
1. Hire a personal massage therapist so I could get a massage anytime I wanted (preferably a hot male! haha) Just kidding, DH!
2. Donate to the Elephant Sactuary in Tennesse.

Wouldn't that be the strangest feeling if your numbers matched?...That moment would feel out of body!
 
1. Pay off debt,families debt!
2. buy family land and house and myself!
3. Make sure kids can go to any college their hearts desire!
4. And since money talks,Do something about the laws for sex offenders,preditors,theirs not enough done about them!
