I Would...
1...go find a lawyer,Cpa,and the IRS.
2...show up at the lottery office,Ticket and paper sack in hand.
3...When the lottery office tried to put my face on T.V.,Put paper sack over my head!! Remember the Unknown Comic From the 70's?? I'd be "The Unknown Winner!
4...After careful investing,stashing,and spending,live a very quiet,long and unenventful life!

Good question...
1. put the money into a bank account
2. make sure i NEVER ran out of weed
3. buy a really nice sports car a modifty it so its unique
I know it sounds boring but thats all i would really do, i would still work and go to college etc, just because you got all this money it takes all the fun out of life, its like when you use cheats in a game, i would rather work to get there than cheat.
But the money would be good to have later on in life, i would have all the best cars, clothes always be going on holidays etc oh yeah and the dankest weed
While im doing all this i would probably invest the money
In mcdonalds and make them deliver that shit to me when im on the munchiessss :D

Buy a shitload of land. Including a mountain in Virginia, A castle in Europe, and a beachfront property or a small island.
Airplane, Yacht, Stable of sportscars, sedans, motorcycles, and monster trucks.
A growroom and a greenhouse capable of supplying me with a year round selection of herb(atleast 50 varaties)
Then I would just travel, relax, and enjoy life.

How much you thinking of winning here? :stoned: too much wacky tobacky
I wouldn't buy anything. I'd wait for an opportunity. If the opportunity never came, I wouldn't have lost anything and my children or grandchildren might have gained something. I'd have it invested, but rarely would I spend. Of couse in hindsight I'd say I was chatting out my ass now if I ever did!!

I'd probably buy a shitload of weed for starters, then a few dune-buggies and buy some land and build my own Jungle Safari complete with petting zoo, and candy machines despensing acid tabs...

i'd put it all in the bank, then every year i'd get like $300,000 interest.
i'd just take out the $300,000 at the end of every year, and i wouldn't have to work ever again, and i would never even touch the real money in the bank.
i would just be taking the cream off the top.
but sometime i would probably take a bunch out and buy something huge

If we're talking tens or hundreds of millions here--a really big lottery jackpot--here's what I'd do:
1. Talk to my husband to get his opinion on what to do with such a windfall. Get a good lawyer, accountant and money adviser. Two of these folks already reside in my own extended family, which is convenient.
2. Set up a trust so that we'd live off the income and the principal would simply earn money. I'd also seed trusts for my son, my younger sister's future baby, assuming she is able to have one, and my cousins' and friends' children. These funds would be conditional upon these kids reaching the age of majority and obtaining a college degree.
2. Pay any bills that need paying. Like pay off my older sister's medical bills and credit cards, pay off my parents' and younger sister's houses and any other debt they have. I'd buy them anything they needed or wanted and would plan to provide any financial support needed as my parents and aunt enter old age. I'd pay what's left on our house and we'd keep that, as it's pretty much already our dream house.
3. Give money to causes I care deeply about. The crisis in Darfur, Sudan. New Orleans and Gulf Coast reconstruction. Habitat for Humanity. A fund that assists the wounded, along with widows and children left after the Iraq war. The energy-care programs in Texas that help low-income people and pay for air conditioning and heating of their homes. The Dallas Symphony and the Fort Worth Kimball Art Museum. NORML. Planned Parenthood and the NARAC. Public TV and radio. Probably I'd give some money to the national and state Democratic Party and any candidates who are intelligent and viable. I'd put a lot of influence behind a universal health care program in America.
4. I think I'd probably continue with my plan to attend medical school. I might get an apartment down closer to the area of Dallas where I'll be studying so I didn't have to drive as far during the week. My husband would be welcome to join me, and if he wanted to stop practicing cardiology and go back to school or perhaps teach on the med school faculty, all the better.
5. In my spare time, I'd travel all over the world and have homes in a few places that I love. NYC. English countryside. The Italian side of Lake Como. Santa Barbara. Maine coast. The decor of these places and of my main home in Texas would be fabulous. (It's already pretty fabulous in Texas now, but I'd get some better antiques and some really fine art.) How to decorate said homes after winning the lottery is already one of my favorite fantasies.
I've already given this a lot of thought. Like I said, it's a favorite fantasy.
take care of financial situations. get a phone and a car that will get me to point b without breaking down. afterwards nothing too crazy. buy some weed and try to live a normal life.

I'd invest half of my winnings into RRSP's and such. Let the money just sit there and gain mad interest off it each year.
With the rest, I'd buy my own piece of land, far, far away from any city. Build my own house, hunt my own food, grow my own crops...be free.
I would buy some land here, as it is ridiculosly expensive and prices arn't going to be going down....
and then probably travel for a bit....go round the world a couple of times
then live somewhere I liked....in happiness...with a big grow room :D

Well, I like Bird Girl's idea about getting a good financial advisor. I'd get one of those because I'm just 18, and it would teach me a lot of things early on that I bet a lot of people would like to learn. They don't teach much about that in schools nowadays...
So, anyway, then I would probably put most of it into a saving's account and let it draw interest my entire life. I'd buy my own place near college, get a part-time job with workable hours, and get a degree in education, like I want to. Then, when I graduate from college, I'd travel the world. I have to admit I wouldn't be a complete philanthropist for the first ya know...5 years of doing this. Most of it would just be about seeing different parts of the world, I guess trying to "find myself." haha Just to see how complete I am as a person. I've never really felt life has challenged me in any of the areas I consider to be important. It's all so rushed, ya know?
Then...I don't know. I'm 18, too indecisive and confused to really plan anything right now, ya know? Maybe I'd do what Figment did, or maybe I'd get a job teaching somewhere. I don't know...

Well if it's a big payday, I'd probably do this:
-Pay off my truck, then sell it for a little more cash
-Get a Silverado or something close to it and go to town on it, West Coast Choppers style
-Get a house somewhere and start a nice little basement grow with lotsa strains.
-Put the rest in a trust fund or throw some of it into the stock market with the help of my all-knowing grandfather and let her grow
-Other than that, just lead a normal life for now, maybe an expensive vacation every year, but that's it. I'll save most of the traveling for when I'm retired. Then I can spend my winnings.

1. I'd grow my own weed and give it to others free of charge (but i'd keep enough for me of course).
2. Get a nice house (with a good-sized indoor garden :).. lol)
3. invest a portion so that I keep generating more money
4. charity donations, support NORML
5. Buy me a llama that can change the colors of its fur on command. (OK, maybe money can't buy everything you want :) )

I'd buy like an ounce of weed and then give the rest of the money to the poor. Really. They need it more than I do. I'm pretty damn poor but at least I can eat and have a place to live. If a big shitload of money fell into my lap I would feel guilty not helping those who really need it. But then again, I'm a red commie bastard, so don't listen to me. :p

I might need to add llamas to my after-winning plan, too. Mine don't have to be magical, color-changing llamas. Just white ones. Or maybe alpacas.
