Probably the same exact thing I am doing right now, packing to go see my family for Thanksgiving. If I won the lottery, I would donate the majority of it to charity because as I see it, there are so many more starving children out there that need the money desperatly more than I do.

I would have a whole lot of interest accumulating on that money. I watched a show on lottery winners and one man that won 40 million had quite of a bit of that in the bank and was making $18,500 in interest a DAY. So, as he said, he could spend 30K in a day and then stay home for a few days and he'd have it back. I would be going to college, spoiling my family and my boyfriend...and when it comes time for my boyfriend to go to college pay his college and buy myself a nice house up there for us to both live in...I'd still work, since if you had a lot of money it'd be easier to wait and find a job you really like...I'd also set up a scholarship and probably find some sort of charity for victims of car crashes, since I got hit head-on by a guy on pills a few months ago and was in the hospital for forevers....life would be good. :)

Great question if taken seriously. I encourage everyone to write down everything they would do if money were no issue. Leave out "buy my parents a Bently" and the like. Ask what you would do for and with YOURSELF. Great way to examine your life. Analyize the desparity between what you really want to do and what you're actually doing. I'll bet you'll find that you can do most of it on an ordinary income. Then work on making it real!

I would be finalizing the details on my school - The Children's Academy, helping my daughter open her business, looking for people I could bless, providing opportunties for young people to visit historical sites in our country who would otherwise not have a chance to travel. Giving my tithes and offerings to my church and blessing The Children's hospital; Cancer Research, Diabetes Research, Lupus, Sickle Cell Foundations, etc. and just being HAPPY!!!

If I was able I would without question, be involved in helping to overcome abuse to our Planet and the fabulous creatures that inhabit it. I would fund any one who was sincere in figuring out ways to preserve the rain forests and the animals that call it home. And also without saying the Oceans and lakes that preserve our mammals and fish that have feed us and shone us the beauty of our under the sea friends.

I would continue with the path I was on before I won. I'd keep the money around for back up for retirement....I wouldn't spend it stupidly right away.

If it was enough (like over 10 mil), I'd quit my job.
I'd buy all my siblings houses & cars--or pay off the ones they have.
I'd set up 2 annual full-ride scholarships at my hometown's High School.......

Then I'd pack me & the ole man's bags and TRAVEL!!!
World cruise first, then RV all over the USA!
