Take care of family and friends.
It would be spent in 80 minutes by our government. I'd love to win it.
Maybe buy a ticket on a Soyuz rocket to the International Space Station and make a video blog about it....
Or maybe purchase a 747 and use it to perform barrel rolls at air shows
Or maybe mount a presidential campaign run in Tristan De Chuna because it seems like a nice place to be president
Or maybe go to Vegas and put it all on Red at the Roulette table for the excitement of the moment
Or maybe start my own lottery to give away 1/2 a billion dollars so I could make 2 Billion dollars
Something bodacious
Oh... Looks like somebody already drew a winning ticket... drats
Pre jinxing myself
My pre jinxing almost worked. I bought two tickets to paradise, and one of them hit 3 numbers. I'm the proud owner of the $7 payoff, so I guess that makes me $5 ahead.
God bless the system for which it stands....:-P

Same here!! I spent $20 and got a few lines with the 3 #s each... I think I made a $1.00 profit. Yippie!! :clap:

Some problems go away to be replaced with a different set. I would like to try the different set.

:good:
I did a barrel roll with a 737 once with Flight Simulator. Does that count?
> What would you do if you won a half a billion dollars?
Get 4 tires. Align the front end. Paint job and maybe a silver shield, then
give the rest away
> ... and why?
Because money does not mean a thing to me. Can't stand the stuff..nothing more than
dirty paper.

Never. I plan to invest it into my Hawaii fund. :sun: 🙂
