Just won the lottery!!!

[PyroChamber]

Oh, I would try and buy TNA for $100K with this face . ahahahahahaAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Then sell it to WWE for 2 Million MAUAHHAHAHAHAHAA

Now this I would love to see, just to see the look on Vince's face!

But I would find a way to claim the money without it being publicized, don't care how much it'd cost I could afford it. The only person I'd tell is my mother.

Then I'd buy her a mansion and get myself a luxury penthouse pad kinda like Bruce Wayne's in TDK.

Pay off my student loans, I think that's the one thing that a lot of us would do first; and invest in something profitable. And then I'd probably travel to London and Tokyo (the two places I've always wanted to see) might even live in either one.

But no matter how much money I'd have, I would still have to deal with taxes.

ETM: Vince, I'll sell you TNA for $2 million.

VINCE: No way.

ETM: I'll sell you TNA without Brooke Hogan.

VINCE: I'll give you $3 million.

 

[Cunning Stunts]

Change my name to "Robin John Blake", buy a Batcave and all the Bat-equipment, then lay to rest the question of who John Blake becomes by choosing my goddamned self.

Spoiler

I would choose Huntress, by the way.

Tell no one.

*DING DING DING*

You are correct!



This has been the only correct answer in this thread.


*disclaimer: I was not calling you a ding. That was an onomatopoeia suggesting the sound of a bell being rung indicating that you stated the correct answer. Just to clarify.

 

[Kable24]

I'd pay off my student loans and any other debt, I currently have
I'd build a nice house for myself
I'd buy a new truck.
I'd build a non-euthanize humane society and it would be huge
I'd pay off my dad's debt
I'd pay off my ex-wife's mortgage


Wait for people who have been "friends" come out of the word work like hungry zombies.

 

[Kable24]

In order;

Unfortunately, a lot of states don't have the option of it not being broadcast to the world. PA is one where they will show your face and can use your likeness to promote the PA lottery.

1. Pay off my student loans and other bills.
2. Buy a cabin in Maine, and find a parcel of land (at least 100 acres of land,) and build a house large enough to accomodate my library, which is nearing 2,000 books. Also, I would hire the Amish to build an old-styled barn, and would open up a pumpkin patch every year.
3. Fund my own independent films.
4. Donate to my undergraduate and graduate schools.
5. Buy a new car. Nothing fancy, but something gas efficient.
6. Set up a scholarship in a local school district for students wanting to pursue screenwriting.
7. Return to Paris, pick up all of the old books I could not acquire, due to luggage restrictions.
8. Acquire my P.h.D. and conduct research at the places I wanted to, but could never could, due to not being able to afford travel expenses.
9. Return to the Pine Ridge Reservation, do more volunteer work, and set up scholarships there.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

I always said that if I won the lottery I would give back to the fan community, by financially backing a fan film or something...

I've seen some great fan films, on little to no budget, I'd love to see what could be done on a million dollar budget

I don't think I'd tell too many people either, if given the choice.

I'd try to see if there was a way I could pay off my parents and sister's house without them knowing.

I would just be worried about people who would come out of the wood work, especially family that I never met but might get pressure from my family to help them.

 

[Ultimatehero]

I've made my own lottery ticket. BUT- I plan to donate 10% to charities, invest in the future, and have some fun while improving some stations in life and then comes the next lotto ticket and I don't know... 20% to charities?

I won't have that problem, because I'm a complete a-hole, and everyone knows that.

However, what I would do if I was a nicer person is just establish a separate trust for the family, with money that you can afford to lose. Put a cousin or something in charge of that trust, with directions that if anybody needs anything, they can take a donation from that trust (from proceeds only), and you pay that cousin an annual honorarium for handling all requests. If the annual allottment of proceeds is depleted, the family can blame each other for being greedy.

That way, the minute someone even starts a sentence with, "You know, Uncle Buttlicker has had a hard time of it recently ..." you can just go, "Stop right there, speak to Cousin Tittydick about it, he's in charge of the trust, I've got nothing to do with it."

 

[Sun_Down]

If we're talking multi-millions, then:

Student loans: mine, my siblings' and my girlfriends
Pay off my parent's mortgage
Buy a nice house with a dope screening room and library
Buy a lake house
Go to the Superbowl and World Series every year
Buy thousands of DOPE suits
And throw money at charities

 

[ComicChick]

immediately i would pay off all my debts. i'm roughly 10k in debt now i think

i would put 70% in savings to build interest. i'd pay off my car, and i'd pay a year's worth of rent for an apartment in advance. then i'd eventually build a house

honestly, if i won it, i probably wouldn't tell anyone lol

 

[Hotwire]

In no real order.
- Donate at least a million to DuPont hospital.
- Pay off debts.
- Build an awesome house that uses all green technologies.
- Buy two custom built Firebirds. One made from a new Camaro SS and one from an actual '69 Firebrd.
- Hook up my parents, brother, and in-laws.
- Open a hobby shop.
- Go an a near endless vacation!

 

[Poetic Chaos]

Buy my dream car. (Mach 5 replica)

 

[actionavenue]

Pay off my house and debts. Buy the house next door to my west and evict the neighbors (Can't stand them and the need to move and I can motivate them with an eviction notice.) Take a wrecking ball to that house and build a putt putt golf course, go cart track or a swimming pool. Take my wife to New England for a beautiful Autumn vacation and then down to Jamaica for some warm fun. Build a new art studio. Donate a crap load of money to charity.

To be honest, I never liked Uncle Buttlicker and Cousin Tittydick. They were slackers.
