ok so i was watching this show on e! today about people who had won the power ball and how it ruined there lives and what not .
so i have been thinking about this all day and what i would do if i hit it .
i would pay off my truck and house and all my debt, buy my mom a house and new car and rent out my house and move somewhere on the beach and use the money to start up my buisness doing custom cars and trucks .
and only when got that up and going good would i make any crazy purchases like expensive cars or what ever i deffinatly wouldnt just blow all my cash right off the bat i would make sure i had something going that could keep me from having to go back to working for someone else
.......so my question is this what would YOU do if you hit the jackpot ?

I don't think I would do much different. I would quit my job and start the business that I have wanted to do for years - but never had the financial confidence to do it.

- I would pay off my house, and my one credit card.
- I would put enough money into an IRA for my son's college tuition
- I would build onto my 1600 square foot home, but would continue to live here
- I would take my family on our dream trip to England and Ireland
- I would take my wife on a second honeymoon to Sandals, Montego Bay
- I would pay off my parents and my brothers house
- I would give 20% to my church

Oh - and FREE t-shirts for all XR-U members!

I would disappear for a couple years and be homeless as I traveled the world. Then settle down somewhere far from the big city and just enjoy my time with my kid. Probably move to another country over seas.

What would i do? Pay off all my bills, go to Italy and see the Ferrari factory. Buy a house in Michigan, season tickets to the pistons,tigers. Take my X to Detroit and maybe be the only X in Detroit. Buy into a condominium here for my mom. And absolutely, positively, give a big chunk to the Boys & Girls Club of Honolulu. If it wasn't for that club, who knows where i would be..

I guess I'm still young so I don't have a lot of what you guys have. But...I'd purchase a nice new house and pay it off...buy my parents a mansion...
Buy myself a luxury car and pimp out my X-Runner. Set aside funds for future bills and also put the money into savings, my IRA, and start doing some investing into the stock market.

Haha when I saw the title of this thread I was thinking of those Power Ball polishing attachments for drills:laugh:

If I won I would buy myself a house, pay off the truck, take a vacation, then go to school full-time.
