I guess you couldn't afford not to buy it!

I was thinking more along the lines of: Boeing: Boeing Business Jets
Admittedly, that might be overkill.

Lol dude you will need a few people to help you. You will need the help to manage the money. I don't care who you are, You won't have the time to do it all. Generate some cash flow? The interest alone on investments is gonna flood your bank account. Anyone who wins this kind of money might as well kiss their regular life good bye. Because it's going to do a complete 90* straight up

Pay the taxes - down to 700mm

Systematically give away half the rest

Put the rest in income producing (tax free when possible) investments.

Turn those earnings into some enjoyable real estate for the family. But I don't know that I'd feel right owning multiple homes that weren't used but for a couple weeks a year. Maybe donate weeks to charities to raise money with.

I'd buy and furnish a mid century modern dream home, and buy a vacation home, probably on a lake somewhere.

I probably hire a financial adviser to invest my money well but I will definitely provide well for my family. But the only thing to be safe is to invest your money well when you have it already.

If you didn't buy your ticket in Chino Hills, you didn't win.
