Pay off all my debt and think about what to do with the rest for 6 months before doing anything else. This is the same plan me and my wife have for life insurance money if one of us dies.

Pay off all debt, take care of my family financially (parents, siblings, etc) buy a very nice home, nothing overkill, then start buying my toys and enjoying the hell outta the rest of my life

Didn't Elvis say something like "What good is fortune and fame if you can't share it with your friends and family?" I feel the same way....just wish I had the fortune part.

Pay off all debt of mine, family, and close friends, build a house on at least 40acres. Then buy a F-250 KR and a Shelby Mustang. Then I'd sit back and watch my money grow in the market.

Well how much is the lottery? There's ones that could barely pay off my house, then there's ones where I'd be set for life.

If I got a bunch of money, I'd probably build one of the fastest street legal 2002 Camaro SS's there are, or maybe get a lightning and make it into a beast.

That's just a start though.

I'd mount the most badass guns that money can buy on my badass truck. Not really sure what that would accomplish, but it would be... badass...

Buy a load of frozen Burritos and some Vodka then get an answering service to inform everyone I am no longer taking their calls.

Last weekend the Lottory was $24 million. If I won that I would obviously quit my job. I would pay off all my family's debt. From that point I would disapear for a while. I probably would buy some huge piece of land and build my dream house. I also would buy an ocean front home so I can enjoy the winters warm and happy. I would also buy all the toys any guy could want.

Retire, pay cash for a 10 acre place at about 2,000 ft elevation, build a sweet house, and start a woodworking shop.

Well, if the amount was 24 million, I would buy a small ranch of around 1000 acres. I'd build duplex homes on it with master quarters. Then I would be looking for homeless kids that need a home and some kind of leadership. That's what the master quarters would be for- a couple that would mentor to these kids. I'd set up a trust for those that can bring in grades of B's or better and send them to college. A bonus of a new F-150 for nothing less than a 3.0 average and a diploma. A ranch life has a lot of advantages- chores, animals, responsiblities, with no peer pressure to do the bad things. I don't have any debt and I already own my home but I would buy some toys for me. I'd see that my sister and bro are taken care of. Invested correctly, this could be a perpetual thing. But considering I can't get three numbers the possiblities are staggering.

I would build the house of my moderate dreams up on a hill with a nice long driveway. Buy a nice 08 Screw lariat black on black and an eddie bauer explorer again in black on black. In 2010 id pick up a 2 door 6.2L BOSS f150. Id quit my job, find a smaller, easier job that may not pay a lot but it is something i enjoy, part time of course. Help out the rest of my family with their bills or loans. Then id find something to invest in, put the rest in the bank, manage it wisely. OFC id spoil myself a little at first. Have to build a super computer, top of the line parts only the best brands, monitored like crazy and kept well. Probably would buy myself an 08 corvette, along with a 68 corvette, both black, both t-top. Each year i would get tickets to at least 5 nascar races, daytona, talle, the glen, bristol, and the finale at homestead. Would someday love to buy a big quarter million RV and travel the country. Really too much to think about all at once, but id be livin the american dream i tell you that much.
