Lottery

[Phazite]

I'd buy a very nice house large enough for two or three people, put up some solar panels, buy an electric car from Tesla, pay off my depts and those of my close family members, and would invest the rest. It would be nice to make enough from dividends to live from week to week. Oh, and that would also give me the freedom to continue on to a PhD program, which might hopefully lead to my finding a job I really enjoy. There's so much I'd want to do if I had the time and money, but those are some of the big things.

This is the part most lottery winners don't seem to realize. They end up worse off than before they won.

Still, lawsuits and theft can happen. I would consider taking a million in cash and putting it somewhere safe and off the record. Like buried treasure.

I'd probably put away like half of it. That way if I fuck up I get another try!

i would invest my money in such a way that i would never have to work again. I'm not going all out and buying a huge house or expensive cars or anything. I just want to be able to fund my future children and my video game addiction.

yes.

Invest some, and start an orchestra with the rest :)
