1. Build a castle to historic specifications with hidden modern conveniences. This is my home but will use for parties, school tours, historical re-enactments, Summer workshops, teaching, Halloween Haunted Dungeon etc. (Subsimmers get in free!)

Cost about $5,000,000 for land, and funds to run.

2. Make everyone I know (and can tolerate) very happy. (Read party at my house...)

3. Make charitable donations to help others.

1) Split it with my wife 50/50 and let her do what she wants with her half.
2) put 1 million away for my daughter so she has a chance for a better future.
3) Buy myself a nice car, and a shack far north with my own lake and mountain for a backyard.
4) help out a few people who helped me.
5) Live the rest of my life fishing and relaxing by my shack with my family... :yeah:

reminds me of the man who came home one day and he had won the lotto


he says to his wife

"Honey! pack your bags! I hit the lottery!"

she gets excited and asks

"Thats great! should i pack for a tropical beach or a snowy mountain?!"

he replies

"I dont give a damn, just pack your stuff and get the hell out"

get Israeli citizenship, open micro credit banking for the Palestinians, open orphanage or shelter house for the Palestinians. . . or maybe not all these . . .

Can't think of any other things . . . really

:hmmm:


In fact I had given much thought on this what if question but really I'm clueless. Those are only thought of after much thinking and not so sure either.

One thing for sure is opening micro credit banking for the poor people of my current country. They deserve better.

As a place to move to? I might get a house on the beach, there. Otherwise, I think I might get a place in Switzerland of someplace like Liechtenstein. I guess it depends on how much money I'd get in the lottery. I might have to stay in the U.S. because the dollar is still weak. Perhaps I'd get an RV and go to a series of music festivals during the summer, or get a boat and go far, far away. Once again, it depends on the amount of money. I probably would just hole up, somewhere, and find a way to make more money off my current money.

I'd probably get a house on (read: near) the beach as well. Further, I'd buy me another house in Brabant (Dutch province) somewhere on the countryside near Eindhoven, buy me a horse, buy me a good car and go working part-time.
