How many of you bought tickets!??! If so, what would you do with the 500 million!??!

I would donate most of it, because I think having THAT much money would cause a lot of problems. Then of course, i'd quit grad school, and perhaps get married and purchase my dream house... oh and a couple more yorkies

Tuesday I bought 4 tickets, one for me and 1 ticket for each dog. We didnt win so we will play again tonight with the hopes of winning and opening a state of the art animal rescue facility, buy a new home and expand the fur family! Good luck to all players!

Just trying to help you out!

I am going to buy tickets on lunch today! I have NO idea what I'd do with that much money.... I can just say that a lot of people around me would be VERY well off and so would quite a few charities. I think I'd give away at least 1/2 of it in $1M chunks to almost everyone I know! Give our house away (paid off of course), give our cars away (paid off of course), take a trip somewhere for a very long time. I really want to do something that would benefit the economy in our town, put many people back to work and just better the lives of many people.

I never buy tickets ...but I bought 2 yesterday. Winning for me would be paying off the debts of everyone in my family ...donate a lot to charity and then buy a state of the art RV, sell the farms and travel extensively with DH and the furkids

Oh and buy my kids and DIL brand new cars.

How kind of you to think of ways to help me out

Lisa and Pic · 03-30-2012, 08:45 AM

It is fun to dream.

I felt silly going into Shell yesterday and asking them how I could get a couple of tickets. I am such a Newbie to stuff like this.

What would I do? I do not have a clue... I hope I would be generous to my favorite nonprofits and save more for retirement.

I'm buying a ticket and if I win, I still have my plan to build the Yorkie Talk Disney World. It will have a dungeon to keep Mike, the Dictator of Banning Land.

Nope your not the only one. My hubby is over sea's and he sent me an email with some numbers and told me to go buy tickets.
I went to the store this morning and I had to have the cashier show me how to fill out the darn thing, and people were standing behind me just staring like they couldn't believe I didn't know what I was doing. LOL

What would I do with the money. Pay off bills, buy a new house and car. Give a good amount to the Rescue Group I Volunteer (CRA) with to help more fur babies. and then put most of it in the bank.
