If you were to win the lottery, would you truley be happy? Would you be lazy and just "hang out",or would you travel the globe in search of adventure. Would you stay at your job, or would you buy your company and make it better for your employers? Would you help the hungry, or lavish the fortunate? What would YOU do?

pay off my bills and continue my life as its been. I would travel though with the love of my life....a lot of traveling. I didn't have to win the lottery to by the business I worked for, hence the bills.....but I am a good person and would still help others when I can. I have friends I would not hesitate to take to the doctor and pay for lapband or bypass surgery. Then I would pay for the sugery to tighten their skin when they lost the weight. Its the least I could do for them. And I would take my YaYa's traveling......but not with my hunny......well at least not til I had been there with him already...
Oh and you know what else I would do strictly as an extravagance? lol, this is really stupid but I just love it. I would go camping at Lake Powell complete with those tents from Planet of The Apes....and their must be apes, actors in suits are fine...hell stuffed ones would be fine too...and horses, lots of beautiful horses.......thats totally stupid and would be so COOL....

If I won the lottery I would stay at my job. I work at a hospital and i find it reassuring to be able to help others. I would invest some money, start a fund for my baby and buy somethings to make my life a little better.

I was rich. I left my former husband and he sued me for alimony review. I retained my alimony but the lawyers got most of the money. I think they are still working hard, but they got to travel and decorate their homes with my money.
Money does not buy happiness.
That said, my dear departed Dad always used to say, "The dreams alone are worth the price of the lottery ticket."
Keep dreaming. I am very content to simply have a roof over my head, work for good health, read, and write. I especially love answering questions like yours on Yahoo.

I would travel around the world and pay someone to teach me six or seven new languages. I would: find a new job, buy a large farm upstate, buy a home in the city, create an organization to help third world countries and their economies, and I would help anyone that I could.

Travel the globe in search of adventure definitely! Our lives are so boring!

I would donate to various charities, take classes in first aid, CPR, and cooking(they all coast money), travel a bit, save money for future family, buy a few things for my self, and put money towards college, a house, and a car when the time comes to get one.

I would probably save most of it for a time that I really need it. I would probably make some donations, too. And I would set aside an allowance of spending money for myself, but I wouldn't become some rich snob...because that would be throwing away ANY potential happiness.

I would, for sure, buy myself a nice house somewhere in Provence (France). The rest of the money would be shared with my daughters, partially, and a lot would go to charities (but not specially to buy food for the hungry, rather give people in the poor countries a chance -pay for their education for example).
Remember: "if you give someone a fish, you feed him for one day. If you teach him how to fish, you give him food for the rest of his life" - I think it's a Chinese saying.

I would continue to work or go to school. I'm an active person so I don't believe in getting rich and just being lazy the rest of my life.

With that money, I would try to build influence. I might build a company from the ground up. With the money you have, you have the resources to make it big. Influence and power.
