LMAO,,I would prolly do the same then maybe have a heart attack. Same idea of friends and family. After your share is gone, that's it...so spend it wisely. My extended vacation would start at S. Padre Island after buying a condo there so that I could rent it out whenever I'm not there. I would hide x amount of $$ and send ppl who want it on a hunt. I.E. first clue will be written on one of the parking lot stripes of a certain place sending them to their next clue. It may be underneath a table of a certain restaurant..etc.

Go back to school as a full time student and earn at least a couple of graduate degrees. Visit Paris. Invest in my children's education beginning with securing a spot for them in an excellent primary. Adopt one more child from China. Visit China. Catch a couple more movies at the Bijou.

Hello,

If I won $5 mil in the Lotto:

I would get the spinal surgeries I need that AIG has been fighting me for for more than three years....

I would hire a kick ass lawyer in Georgia to sue the prick lawyer who threw my case to begin with.

I would finance a class action suit against AIG for fraud for denying medical care to injured contractors returning from the War Zones.

Finally, when I was all healed up of course, I would take a cruise around the world, luxury all the way! I already have so many blessings in my life, I'd just like to travel and experience more of what the world has to offer!

Of course, friends and families debts taken care of, cars for those who needed them. Charity begins at home!

I would get even with everyone that has done me wrong.

Simple fun things.....like buy the houses next to them...and then let a bunch of real gangster thugs live in it for free. Rent billboards near their home or work...to remind them of their misdeeds.

I would first pay my 10% in tithing (because God would be the only reason I would of won in the first place). Then I would buy my family a home (We have never owned a home before). The rest I would invest so that my kids and grandkids will be taken care of. The only family I have is my husband and three daughters so this would be a blessing.

I would donate 10%, invest most of it, and maybe use 20% of it to travel while I'm young. I would need to get a good financial planner.

Otherwise I would continue working and live life as currently planned, except when I go back to school I wouldn't have to take on any debt.
