    You're absolutely right. I don't play the lottery every week as many do; but if it gets up over $200 million, I buy a single ticket, just for the fun of it.

    You seem to be very passionate about rapping
     
  3. I'd only use what I need for the most part & put in my will a way to use the money for progress. Like "The Magnet Award," or something similar to the noble prize so my legacy would live on long after my mortal passing.

  6. Im not going to pretend to know anything about investing money but if I use my own logic no matter how flawed it might be at times, I would put 99% of it into some kind of investment and watch it grow and donate parts of the earnings each year, also make it so that after I die it will continue going on donating to real charities forever and keep on growing, I donno maybe this way I could help more people in the long run, other then to just throw it all into one charity seems stupid.(Don't really know if this is possible though)

    The remaining 1% I would share it with my family to pay of their loans buy em things, then buy myself a house and build a workshop, as well as travel around the world. 1% of 400m would be an insane amount of money to me, might not me a lot to some people who buy houses for less money, but I basically live on a poverty type of income, not complaining, Im grateful for what I have.

    Cheers

    If you ever win the lottery,1st rule is don't say to anyone, people will see you only as money machine that needs to pay them everything,also you would get many "new friends" that would only try to take advantage of you
    1. I would help my family and maybe some closest friends in need.
    2. I would build a house and started producing homemade things (milk,cheese,crafted beer,wine,meat etc.)
    3. I would travel around the world
    4. I would start some business
    5. I would donate in some charity for sure

    If I won the lottery, I would probably start my own publishing and production company. Publish books, produce music for others as well as my own, produce movies that I can approve of. Pretty simple, but having that much money without investing can easily corrupt a man with no goals

    How naughty. Jk.

    I cannot remember the last time I played the lotto but I know it was scratch-offs. Like snorting a line of fake coke. No one ever hits the jackpot on them.

    I recently found myself entering sweepstakes compulsively. I stopped. I need to remain vigilant to not do this anymore. I would consider the lotto a mild form of gambling, as sweepstakes are in a sense even though entrance is often free. The point is looking for free things takes away the reality of actually acquiring them and isn't a good habit to foster. That won't stop most people from doing it though.

    I cannot answer as I don't plan on playing the lotto again so there is no chance, theoretically.
     
  12. If I won 500K (meaning 500,000 bucks) in a lottery, I would mostly likely move to Colorado and explore the state at times. I won't get a job for like within 6-9 months if I won a lottery in the summer so I can explore many things during the Christmas Season (best time of the year, in my opinion) and shoot ton of pictures in good places like Denver, Boulder, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Woodland Park, Castle Rock, Englewood, Manitou Springs, Aspen, and Loveland. Of course, I visited Colorado less than 10 times but I've only been to Divine, Woodland Park, Manitou Springs, and Colorado Springs but never visited during the Christmas Season and I'm very interested to see how beautiful the state is during the season. After the Christmas Season, I would go on the job hunting and start making money so I can keep my money for the future and not wasting all of it. I'm not poor but I would buy a brand-new car (my first car ever), HD television, 4K Bluray player, and live myself in the apartment or house in a heartbeat. Colorado is cheap than California and I'm a California who used to live in that state but still, fuck California. Hell, I would also prefer Arizona over California any day for better cost of living and population.

    If money was unlimited I would buy a nice house we wanted and pay off the mortgage. Any money my parents, auntie or uncle needed would be theirs. Then I'd quit the day job, travel a bit. Maybe buy an island or a bit of land and have a nature reserve. I'd spend the rest of the time developing spiritually and creatively, and give money to causes I believe in.

    Honestly, I don’t think my life would change very much, at least spending habbit wise. Sure, I would do some of the big home renovations I’ve been procrastinating like get the new roof and maybe have the broken up concrete redone. I would set up all the kids I know in my life with an appropriate 529 college fund.

    As for work, I find my volunteer work with roller derby and outdoor programs with kids way more fulfilling than my regular job. I would probably take a less paying job with one of the organizations I work with and quit my current job. Other than that, I would just happily live off the interest and visit more national parks. (Which I currently do a lot of) :)

    I do not believe in this. I think it is not real. I was convinced that this was a fraud a year ago. I received a message from the post office that I won the car. I was happy. I was told that I had to pay for the delivery of the documents. I decided to check the reality of the mail on the site https://proofy.io/bulk-email-verification-service/ . It turned out that this is one-time mail. It was a lie.

  16. I have been hesitant to answer but am going to since I’m curious if anyone else will come out with this type answer.

    In all honest if I were to win the lottery and become a multi-millionaire I think I’d end up spending time with escorts and visiting Nevada Brothels.

    Cindy Lauper had a great song that is 100% truth “Money Changes Everything”.

    I think it’s a fair guess that a significant part of us here would suddenly change our minds about porn and sex addiction if we suddenly became mega-wealthy. It’s not a healthy change of mind for sure, truth is truth no matter what our economic status.

    But when you get money and are now in a position to do anything you want, old temptations seem to roar back.

    I once cashed in some stock that did really well. The idea was to remodel my bathroom. I cashed in a lot, more than I needed. That money in the bank really messed with my head. The temptation to use some to get some action at a brothel was there but not acted on.

    I got the bathroom done and donated the rest. I didn’t want that temptation around.

    In light of that, I don’t want to become mega-wealthy. I think I’d get into big trouble. I want to stay poor and walk in truth. Money can blind people to truth.

    If I win the lottery the first thing I do is go live in Hawaii:)
     

  18. First thing I'd do. I'd keep my winnings confidential at all cost's, especially with keeping the media out of it...

    Help out my parents pay off the house. $10,000,000 Donate to a homeless shelter or to people in the shelter to help them get a jump start on life.

    I would donate $10,000,000 to people who are in need and anyone suffering right now.


    Secondly: I would quit my job and go see my past ex's along with my current girlfriend in the Philippines right now. I would spend roughly a month with them maybe longer if need be. Having a 40 hour job is just rough and I am having trouble building up holiday time even...


    Third: I would build my own gym so I can be stronger and so I can invite other people to it to train with and get to know them. About 40,000,000 would be for food strictly..


    Finally the rest I would set aside so I can build a home and the rest of my life.. Money is a foundation... You treat it with respect and its intended purpose.

    I don't know. I would fix my computers, buy an air conditioner, maybe buy a pair of headphones, and then I don't know.
