...what you are going to do with the money? I'll quit my job,make a partnership with my friend,buy some good computers,hire some good PC progamers and start working in computers graphics.What about you?
shareHow could I win without ever putting a ticket on after my first, just because I could, attempt?
shareFirst thing I'd do is buy a house, and quit my dayjob. With prices in my area outstripping even working people's ability to buy a home of their own instead of rent forever, sadly winning the lottery is THE only way I will ever have my own home. I'll be renting 'til I die.
shareWow...renting sucks-never again
Not to be too personal but where are you?
Im in the NYC area my whole life...still managed to buy and sell a few houses over these last 20 years...and New York is way overpriced
Im just curious...feel free to be vague
I'm in London and I'm old enough that I don't even qualify for a mortgage now because of my age as well as my income.
I've emigrated and repatriated so I never got a foot on the property ladder and it's too late in my life now. They say that even young working people in London now may have to save for up to twenty years just to get the downpayment together. Twenty years I could literally be dead, I'm not young anymore.
I do wish I had managed to get onto the property ladder a very, very long time ago in my adopted city, where it was possible with a little difficulty, albeit. And even in repatriating away, I would have had been able to buy again here.
But these days, if you ever missed any window of opportunity earlier, it's now impossible unless you have a serious salary, which I never have had.
Im sorry to hear it Prelude
Seems a lot of that is going around...i have good friends who work but struggle
Thx for your thoughtful reply...i learn a lot here!
Here in Toronto housing prices have gone sky high. Thankfully we bought in 1992 when the market was more buyer friendly.

I'd give a lot of money to various charities. I'd invest the rest. Yes, I know, boring.

I'd try to live pretty much the same... just a bit more leisure travel and to buy the plot of land next to where I live now...
shareEnough land that I don't have to ever see anyone I don't wish to.
shareI would keep the money I would need to live out my life and give
the rest of the money to friends and people who really need it.
