If u won the lotto
1000mAh:
--- Quote from: Ixarku on June 20, 2010, 11:34:44 AM ---With a huge financial windfall, I would:
1) First, not quit my job until I had the money in the bank and available for use.
2) Hire a financial advisor / financial planner / accountant.
3) Pay off my house & car right away.
4) Build or buy a new permanent residence in the $300k to $500k range, just haven't decided where yet.
5) Give my old house to a friend as a gift.
6) Set aside some chunk of money and split it up in some fashion between friends and family. Even though it would be impossible to solve the financial problems of everyone I know, I do believe in sharing my good fortune with those who are close to me.
7) With the remaining money, I'd figure out what kind of a modest income I could get with investments and whatnot.
8) Create a will and identify my sister as my beneficiary.
9) With all of my "needs" addressed, I'd probably a) travel some more, b) learn to cook more things, c) maybe go back to college and take a class or two for fun, d) either take a martial art or hire a personal trainer, e) focus on writing fiction, f) goof off a lot

Yeah, I’ve decided to win but the laws of probability have other plans.

Well, that was just plan A. If that doesn’t work out, plan B is to invest the money in a satellite capable of laser-beaming every person on the planet from orbit simultaneously, transforming everyone into a Mel Brooks lookalike.
