Half a BILLION bucks

The Mega Millions lottery is now worth about 1/2 a billion dollars ($476,000,000). If I won, I'd probably call in sick...............while I was out looking for a new bike and a used Hummer H1.

40 of us at work have been playing as a group.

Elaine and I would take one vacation, one long long vacation.

I would send it all in to Obama...it would all end up there anyhow

dmyers · 03-28-2012, 07:04 AM

I would do my best to stimulate the economy.

I would buy as much of the debt the US has with China, just to piss the Chinese off.

I'd buy the best cigars available, and put a match to them one by one.

No one in my family would ever have to go to work again unless they wanted to.

Hey Uncle Tim! How have you been? I really miss seeing you and have been thinking a lot about you...

bibendum · 03-28-2012, 06:39 PM

I dont play, until now. I would travel, anywhere and everywhere.

pagemastr · 03-28-2012, 07:19 PM

Hey, I might then be able to afford a Harley

I personally don't think HD is a good buy even if I did win the lottery. @ $1/2 billion I bought a ticket just in case. I might have to do a totally custom bagger and call it a MarkClark57. ;-)

I think I would buy one of those super nice RV's. Tour bus style with toy hauler. We could park someplace for a month and ride the bikes around until we got bored and then move on. Always stay in a nice climate.

The gov't will take a huge chunk, the charities and church groups will want it all.
I wouldn't make life to easy for the kids and grandkids and future grand grand kids. I think they should go to school and get a job, with small amounts of money made available thru trust funds to keep them comfortable. After they reach say 35 the rest of their allotment could be released to them.
I also think that a special fund could be created for the state highway dept., that way I would have great roads to ride on. No potholes and frost heaves in the corners!

You could hire a soldier of fortune team to help you hunt down Big Foot.
