Of course not. I keep my collection in jars up on the mantel. Actually wearing them on a hat would be so déclassé.

That ship lounge. Heck of an idea! Man, that would be a blast and make a profit surely.

Hmm.

First: Look at it for a second... probably with the words WTF going through my head

Second: then id be happy

Soon after id move... to europe maby, or a nice place in the US. Soon followed by a nice car, house, a Speedboat and suff.

Id spend about 3 to 4 million of it, save the rest up for life.

but ya know, the lottery around here has gotten to 266 million. I FEEL JIPPED!

If I got that.
Id have a Nice boat, car and a WW2 Tiger, or panther tank. something Ive always wanted.

After paying taxes i would probably have about $6,500,000 left over.

1. I would buy my wife and I some acreage in the country and build myself a grass strip runway a hangar and a quaint log home (not tiny but not sprawling either).

this would leave me with about $6,000,000

2. I would buy a Thunder Mustang, a mint 1944 L4 Cub, and a Boeing Stearman

this would leave me with about $5,300,000

3. I would pay off my truck and spend about $10,000 tricking it out with cool accessories.

this would leave me with about $5,265,000

4. I would donate about $1.5M to various charities

this would leave me with about $3,765,000

5. I would pay off my mothers home and my best friend's home

this would leave me about $3,400,000 which i would use to live out the remainder of my days in peace, quiet and solitude.
