I feel Lucky

So, we have our Powerball tickets, and I'm fantasizing:

1) Drive to Nashville and pick up the money. We'd make a day of it. Probably call friends in the area and take them out to dinner.

2) Pay off all our debt. Every penny from the cable bill to the mortgage.

3) Give notice at the library and the casino.

4) Set up scholarship funds for our 4 kids, our 7 nieces and nephews, and my sister who is trying to get her MBA.

5) Go back to school and study something fun: pop culture, film studies, that sort of thing.

6) Donate heavily to charities. Project Linus, Susan G. Komen institute, Memory Walk, MIFA (Memphis InterFaith Alliance), the Food Bank.

7) Invest. Stocks, bonds, CDs real estate.

8) Design my dream house. 6 bedroom, 3 bath. Huge kitchen, big dining room. Living room, library/computer room, Crafting room/Studio, home theater. Utility room. Playroom. Pantry. Garden. Orchard. Berry bushes.

9) Have it built and move.

Any lessons our kids want to take. Any trips we want to take. Pennsic and Lilies and Diamond Wars. Escapade, Media West, VividCon, ConneXions, Con*Strict

And I'm not even through the first six million yet. What would I do with that amount every year for 20 years? Besides squirrel it away for the day there is no more?

Repeat 6 and 7 as needed.


So, what would YOU do with $6 Million/year for 20 years? Aside from buying a new model of Steve Austin each year, or turning it all into singles and hitting the titty bars?

Move to a quiet place with nice weather. Hawaii maybe? Spend the rest of my life learning stuff and working on a book that will never get published. Hire somebody to do all my housework. Move parents in a nice place somewhere *far* away from me. Relocate relatives still stuck in Ukraine.
