So, dead at 51. Good to know.

I think I could make it last longer than a year!

Depending on how much money I won, I would...

Buy a great piece of land in a pretty remote area

have a beautiful midsize house designed and built (4-5 bedrooms max) with a beautiful bedroom with a king size (comfortable and therapeutic) bed that isn't painful, along with other brand new furniture

buy 2 brand new cars for myself.. one for off-roading/camping trips, one for every day use

buy myself a new computer with all new components, including unlimited lifetime internet access and all the good stuff included

donate some to a worthy cause or three

buy a nice place for my parents (and myself when it comes time) to retire in, including in-home care when they need it

finance my own personal trainer

finance my own personal chef that teaches me how to be a good chef as well so I don't need them eventually

I'm sure there's more, but that's about all I can think of for now.

Before or after rehab, and before or after you got AIDS?

Give a substantial amount to one of my favorite charities..
Attend school full time..
Leave a trust fund for son..
Give money to my parents so they can fix their house..
Spend a year in Scotland..
Buy a 1920's era Arts & Crafts Bungalow..

I don't need a lot of money, just keep enough to pay off my bills and have enough left over to feel safe.

I'd give away the rest, so you better save my profile in case if I'd win, because I would look for people who is in dire need of money.

I'd pay off any and all outstanding debts my immediate family may have incurred, including mortgages and stuff. Then I'd probably buy myself a new truck, as the one I'm currently driving is on its last legs.

I'd probably put the rest in a series of savings, CDs, or Roth-IRAs for safe-keeping. Unless they get wiped out by another bank failure, that is.

pay off school
trust fund for son, nieces & nephews
finally buy a house and a brand new car ...sick & tired of my '92 nissan sentra
move to France
Give to a worthy charity or two or three
help as many of my good friends as I could
Still have to work...my own schedule .....of course, not necessarily for the money.
INVEST....INVEST.... INVEST

1) take care of my brother (who just lost his job) and family
2) take care of my best friend who's deli business is suffering and might lose soon
3) take care of another great friend who lost her job
4) take care of this elderly sweet lady who still works cleaning houses and has nothing
5) pay another friends mortage off
6) and take care of myself

BUY A ISLAND IN THE SUN. TRADE IN MY SPORTSTER FOR A 2nd HARLEY

Buy a brand new Harley and move someplace warm so I could ride it all year long. Buy a house so my girls could live there comfortably as long as they would like without having to bump into each other all of the time. Live the beach life.

I would pay off my debts,buy me a car,and buy a house.

Call up my ex GF's and say hi.

Have very sore cheek's from grinning so much!

Sell the house I live in now and buy a little patch of land and build the house I want and need. Of course share some with relatives and a couple of friends.
