Post by: Sendmicheck on October 14, 2015, 03:39:26 am: If I win the lottery, I would move my sisters and brothers from their present homes and relocate them to another state. My children will remain with me and finish their education before launching out. The rest of the money will be invested for later years.

Post by: 6265AT99 on October 14, 2015, 01:48:40 pm: wow - that's a good question. I think I would first and foremost take care of my family; then I would donate to helping those that need it most - like our veterans, homeless and animals that need care. Then maybe I would just sit back and relax knowing I don't have to worry about paying bills or whether or not I will have enough money to live on in my retirement.

Title: Re: what would you do if you won the lottery
Post by: UGetPaid on October 19, 2015, 04:17:22 pm: I already have a lot and a floor plan both picked out for the house my wife and I would build. Nothing extravagant, but a bit larger size with a few other amenities than what we have now. It would also be in a place where you seldom hear any gunshots, but if you DO hear them it is probably from hunters in the distance rather than the thugs a few blocks away.

Significant bills would be paid off and if it was a large enough jackpot, I would put in my notice at work and would start volunteering my time elsewhere.

Post by: Tausha69 on October 21, 2015, 06:42:48 am: Speaking of winning the lottery ....... I stumbled across this bingo site the other day.... long story short I ended up adding money to an account $15.00 no big deal right. Then I played a few games and won!! I won a $1000!!! I couldn't believe it! I never win anything just saying. Then I went to collect my winnings of course and you have to jump through hoops to get it ...... meaning I have to send them copies of the card I signed up and added money to the account a copy of my drivers license and a copy of my current utility bill. Then I have to wait for the documents to be "approved" what ever that means.... lol has anyone ever won money online at a gambling site like this? Still wondering if I will ever see my winnings!! I will keep ya updated of course. Thanks for listening to me babble on! lol

Title: Re: what would you do if you won the lottery
Post by: Penwoir on October 21, 2015, 11:28:26 am: If I won the lottery I would move to the United Kingdom and invest in a house. I think properties are more expensive out there and you do get less square footage for the money. They also generally build their houses upward instead of single story homes which we see a lot of where I live. I would also have a swimming pool, I would live near a forest and near the coast so I could fully explore the beaches and go fishing like I use to with my dad when I was a young girl!
Title: Re: what would you do if you won the lottery
Post by: kingozzy on October 21, 2015, 11:49:50 am: I would go on vacation, pay off my house and my mothers, and have a hell of a party that's for sure :)
Title: Re: what would you do if you won the lottery
Post by: sfreeman8 on October 21, 2015, 12:03:40 pm: 1. I would buy hubby his '56 Crown Vic since I'm tired of hearing him talk about wanting another one. i would also buy him a brand new pickup truck if he wanted one or a car because he never had a new one.

2. I would tear down the home we live in and put a modular home here. The one we're in now has too many problems.

3. The rest of the money I would split between retirement, the kids, Wounded Warriors, USO, St. Jude's and Shriner's Hospitals, and a couple more charities.

I have had this list stashed away for the past 20 years, so I guess I really don't have hopes of ever winning...especially since i gave up playing the lottery 5 years ago. :angel11:
