It's been won! I hope whoever won remembered to check their numbers and claim their prize!

That said, I'd have bought three houses. One on the Oregon coast, a beach house in Texas, and one nearby Yellowstone. My sister dreams of moving to Oregon. My mom is from the Texas coast region and wants to move back. Yellowstone is my favorite place in the world. And I enjoy vacationing in the other two places. The kinds of houses I'd buy are worth about 300K here in Springfield- so likely more expensive somewhere else, but wouldn't make much of a dent in a billion. God a billion is a lot.

Then I'd buy new cars. Like the houses, these wouldn't be excessive, but still new.

Would I donate some? For sure. But I think how I'd handle this would be more along the lines of designating a portion for donation and then spreading that over random direct contributions to people or organizations.

And I'd invest in a few things to see if I could make some extra, because why not.
