What would you guys do if you won the Mega lottery?

As we all know they will announce the lottery tomorrow night for 500mil but after taxes you will only get about half that 250mil.What would you do with your money?

I would buy my mom and dad a house and 2 cars.

I would buy me and my girl a house and 2 cars.

I would buy my sister a house and a car.

I would give all my family members a good amount of money.

I would invest in real-estate

Put the rest in the bank

i would still go to work. very late of course. then show up in shorts and flip flops or maybe even bunny slippers. barge into a giant important meeting and mock the speaker.

then maybe ask questions they can't answer and get some james brown played over the intercom system.

take a ton of random people from work out for drinks. i mean the possibilities are endless.

I would give the first 50 mil away to a couple of charities and foundations that I've worked with in the past. Then I'd take the next 50 and set up an investment endowment to continue some charity work. The next 20 would be divided amongst friends, family, and my local community via some different disbursement vehicles. The next 70 would become my own personal investment designed to live only off of the interest. The next 20 would be earmarked for future family stuff (business venture, take myself back to school, etc.). Another 20 would be set aside for my kids' expenses and inheritance. 10 would be a buffer for everyday living, and the last 10 would be for spending however we want, whenever we want.

And I'd do some stuff like Pstall. That would be fun.

I sure as fug wouldn't be sitting bleary-eyed in front of a computer at 8AM. I like my job, but I'd quit politely and immediately.

I'd help immediate family where needed/wanted.

I'd donate a ton to charities, particularly on the local level.

I'd set up the rest in a way so that I'm safe for the rest of my life. Kids would have accounts set up so they are safe as well, but they'd have to show responsibility and earn every penny. This part would be out of my control so any whining/begging would be pointless.

After extensive travel I'd eventually go to work for a local charity or non-profit. Something to make the place I live better.

I'd live in a very nice but modest home from the outside, but inside would be every conceivable highest-end audio and video product known to mankind.

Yes, we bought tickets yesterday. :)

    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
    • He wasn't a JAG, he's been a starter every year of his career. Didn't turn into the superstar it seemed like he might his rookie year, but I think part of that has been being misused. Guy was/is a baller.
