One thing that I for got to mention:
I would LOVE to take some money and pay craftsmen and other professionals to show me better techniques. There are SO many things that I could improve on. I get excited to do stuff and jump in, making all sorts of mistakes! It would be fantastic to be a better painter and body man. My welding needs help too.

If a guy has one million dollars and spends that in one year, it only takes spending $2,734 per day and change to burn that up. Ten mil? $27,340. A hundred mil? $273,400 per day. At the $900M the current PB is at (I'm not deducting taxes, let's pretend it is a perfect world and the winner gets all of it!), it takes spending $2,460,600 per day to blow through that money. This is of course, assuming none of it is invested and it's all about shooting that giant wad of money on whatever you wanted to do.

What would I do? Pay bills first, period. With that insane amount of money, I'd have to move to where no one knows me. Build a nice 8 - 10K sq ft home with a similar-sized shop on a section of land in an area of the country that has minimum impact by weather and earthquakes. Get my Coronet and my Imperial the best restorations I can find.

Plus, I'd actually give a portion to my siblings, and my wife's siblings and her mom. It would be easy to divvy up a hundred million of that among family.

Probably set up a charitable foundation/trust of some sort with a portion and do things to help the people I feel need the help in a way I choose to help them.

I've always wanted to own a gourmet restaurant. Not necessarily work it, just own it and have it be the nicest and most desirable place in town to eat. The type where there is always a waiting list to come in, and one where you want to come back again and again.

Well I won!!!!!! My wife wentboitbanf bought me a car it was great a 71 rt charger black red strips and red interior hemi 4 speed the whole 9 yards ,only problem is I only one $4.00 so it's a hot wheels car and I can't really drive it . Anyone else do better then my 4 bucks by the way I bought $6.00 in tickets so I'm negative -$2.00 then -$1.50 for the hot wheels and finely we will say -$5.00 for gas.
So my tally is -$8.50 so yeah I didn't do so good but did get that car I just had to have I'd take a picture but I lost it Already so yeah I dint like the power ball or lotto it's a big *** scam ,I'll like it better when I'm proven wrong and win big maybe next time damn this scam it's so good

my OM texted me and said we won $375, I asked if that was after the $1100 in tickets, she just sent lol... I told her to tell the guys we broke exactly even and I will cover the difference, don't want my guys to feel like losers, lol.. Happy worker = happy worker...

want to be a better body man, check these out..

http://www.howardsbackyardautobody.com/customerComm.html I have them and honestly, they taught me a lot, right now someone is borrowing them from another car forum I belong to, many people asked me to copy them, BUT that is one of the only things I would like people I loan them to not do, and that is copy them... I was skeptical at first, a friend of mine told me about them and said he seen bits and pieces of them, so I bought them, they are GOOD, you want to be a better bod man, thats where to start...

IF I WON.THE FIRST THING I WOULD BUY IS A NEW BUTT. MINES CRACKED

Nobody won. Its over the top now. 1.3 billion and climbing. Guess i will plop down another Jackson. Hell, for the chance at a billion, maybe a Grant.
