You Have Just Won The Lottery, Now What?

You Have Just Won The Lottery, Now What?
Imagine you have just won the lottery, more than $5,000,000.

What would you do with the money?

For myself, I would go on a cruise around the world, to give me time to decide what to do with the money. I would probably look at a new home, quit my job, buy a new car, and buy a Linn Klimax multichannel home theatre system.

I know some single mothers, and other people that could use a big hand financially, that I would help out.

What would you do? Discuss. Tongue

1. Keep working; heck I get paid for what I love to do;
2. Help as many relatives and friends who need it as possible; if enough remains after that:

3. Buy a summer residence in Italy and install an Akurate system;
4. Buy a Klimax system for home;
5. Wake up every day and recognise, as Monty Python so eloquently put it, "the sun shines up your [my] ass, mate". Tongue

Victrola 1922 Floor model.
