I would buy a couch that a dog has never slept on, to have a couch to sleep on, and this would mean that I would have to build a way big house, cuz; I would come home, and there is the fuckin dog sleepin on my new couch, so dial the phone, order a new couch.

I might have to go buy a ticket though...

Damn, we've got mandatory threads now? If we don't respond, do we flunk out of Collarme?

If we do respond, do we get an automatic A?

Aren't there enough people here who already think that I AM an automatic A..., umm, nevermind.

First stop, the bank to see about getting a line of credit to last me until I actually have the money, which takes at least a couple of weeks after you turn in the ticket.

Second stop, a car dealer because doing all this shit riding the bus would be a pain in that automatic A. The car would be a plain, everyday, nondescript set of set of wheels, nothing that screams "I'M RICH" at all the junkies, gang-bangers and bums who live in this city.

Third stop, a lawyers office to find out how I can collect the prize without having every bum I've known in the last fifty years crawling out of the woodwork saying, "Hey there, remember me? Can you help me out with...."

Fourth stop, actually turn in the ticket, although I'd have the lawyer do that for me if possible.

We have tickets and I have a house I want built partially designed in my head. It has two in-law suites (for both our mothers) in case it is needed, is a ranch/one-level home and has at least an additional 3 bedrooms, a media room/office for Master, living room, dining room, eat-in kitchen with walk-in butler's pantry, and a 4-car garage with an apartment above for a driver (both Master and I hate to drive so we would hire someone and part of their salary would the the apartment).

Status: offline 		When I was a kid (21 or so) I bought a few Lotto tickets but I quickly woke up to the fact that I was totally wasting my money.. I dont gamble either (too much risk for any potential reward).. I figure I have a better chance of getting big bucks by being somewhat smart, working hard & having a good investing plan and working that plan hard.. And imo, a person respects money more when they had to bust a sweat to earn it..

Status: offline 		A group of us at work went in on a pool of tickets. So, if I win a share:

Meet with financial planner to explore options.

Quit my job, pay off all of my debt, and the Mister's debt.

Get an ocean front home.

New cars for the Mister and I.

Help my brother out, who is struggling.

Travel the world.

And there would be a lot of charity work/donations.

Status: offline 		It might be fun to announce I was going to spend it all on a campaign for the Presidency, give a couple of incendiary speeches, and see how much free time I could get on the cable networks to spout my political craziness, before alledging dirty tricks and dropping out of the race.

I'd be a lot more fun than Ross Perot.

Money and women: Both ought to be respected. But, from time to time, each is oh so fun to treat with utter disregard.

Live on part of it and give the rest away in various ways. I only bought 1 ticket because I have no lottery luck what so ever, but I had to try. It amazes me how much money people are willing to spend on it. our store sold $3500 in lottery tickets today.
