The story teller makes no choice, soon you will not hear his voice.

It's not out of the question to buy two places next door to one another, and turn one into a guest house. I intend to buy a couple of boats also, a large cruiser, and something for the Intracoastal. How do you find people to pilot your boat for you? I want someone who is experienced and trustworthy.
Assuming you really did win a lot of money, it sounds as if you need to discuss this with a financial planner who can review the taxes, upkeep & utilities and look at long term expenditures vs future income. Most people who come into a big windfall go broke within 5 years. There's a reason. Your desire to own an "estate" on the water in an area like Casey Key with 2 residences, including a guest house, a "couple" of boats, including a large cabin cruiser with a private crew isn't unreasonable if you won over $200 million, but unless you have another source of income, you will not be able to sustain such a lifestyle for a long period. I'm sure you've read about the celebrities who died penniless after making millions and the many who claimed bankruptcy after their careers went sour.

Congrats! Smart move. Most people just buy more tickets and lose it.

It's the internet, so I never know what to believe. I might be a man who calls himself justNancy. (maybe I only dated one woman in my life and her name was Nancy! lol) Seriously, the OP said he didn't like the notoriety and was seeking anonymity and then talked about building an entire compound. Well, it's fun to dream.

Hey all, this guy is a troll... he did not win the lottery. Last week his screen name was DixonCox & he was leaving his wife & kids to move to FL by himself. Now he won the lottery & apparently now his wife & kids are OK with him buying Siesta Key up, leveling all the buildings & driving around drunk in a limo...or is it a yacht?

Go back & look at his previous posts...all of DixonCox's posts have changed to the screen name YeahMon (as ZZB previously mentioned..)

All right. In all seriousness, I am going to come clean. Both of my posts were completely made up. I used to run a popular forum a while back, so I can get pretty creative.

All kidding aside, I would like to be friends with you guys here. I do visit Florida often, and I can contribute to this forum, as well as take from it.

I beg all of you to forgive me, and as YeahMon, I promise to be honest from here on out.

(Admit it though, I had you guys going on the "leaving my family behind" post!! LOL, and my lottery post was pretty dreamy too)

Parlay?
