[planomateo]

I typically only throw money at it a few times a year.

Gotta love honesty like this.

Just got my tickets it's now $700M.

 

[BamaFan334]

Pitched in with some folks at work. I'll be buying a suite at Bryant-Denny with my winnings if I'm the one.

The odds of winning are so small (better chance to be hit by lightning) that it's basically a waste of money. But, there's always a chance.

There is a better chance of getting struck by lightning 3 times than winning it!

But shit, I just got a $24 return for some Mobil thing .. I'll blow some of it on lotto tickets, and the rest on Mickey D's like a true American.

My buddy's house just got struck by lightning, so he is actually buying our tickets tomorrow, ha ha

 

[rick4bama]

I live about 15 miles from the Georgia line, it's been 19 year since I played the Lotto.

 

[The Dude]

Man I hope he wins!

 

[We All Bleed Crimson]

When it gets this high, I gotta throw my name in the hat... once, twice, or twenty-three times.... :dance:

 

[XXL TideFan]

Had a boss of mine ask me one time , " Would you keep it secret? Would you keep working?"

Me, " Monday morning when you come in, you would find me standing on your desk pissing in your chair."

What would you guys do with the moolah?

A friend of a friend gets a million a year (about 600k after taxes) from the lottery. I'd actually prefer that. All portioned out.

I'd pay off my parents' mortgage. Buy them a house on the Gulf Coast. Pay for my sick grandmother's medical bills. Pay off my student loans. Start a scholarship. Donate to animal shelters and rescues. Buy an RV and follow the Eagles and Bama and see the country. And eat soooooooo much BBQ and sushi.

 

[planomateo]

Lump sum, I'd buy a few thousand acres in Montana and build an super efficient house and a kickass barn. Help out a few family members and make sure my kids have enough to be comfortable.

I'd travel the world for the first 2-3 years on the cheap.

Portioned out? If something happens to you wouldn't you lose it all rather than a lump sum and leaving it to your family?

Lump sum also allows you to invest and make compound interest on a large sum. Basically making the rich, richer.

Something about having a few hundred mil at once makes be uncomfortable. Plus, I feel like I would be less inclined to spend recklessly, which you sometimes hear about.

The friend of a friend who gets it, he still lives modestly but he had to give up some apartments he rented out here in Syracuse. He's apparently put a load of it away for the kiddies.

 

[Che Boludo]

I won a store raffle the other day... 55" Sony flatscreen and a PS4. I think my luck is up.

What numbers would you play? I want to make sure I don't pick those.

 

[wiregrass_bamaguy]

I would buy me some hair first of all then buy everyone in dothan turn signals for their vehicles because noone seems to have vehicles equipped with them.

 

[We All Bleed Crimson]

I would take the lump sum. I have a spreadsheet that I created with all of the things I would invest in. It's a budget of sorts. All I do is plug in the number. The interest from the investments would more than provide income each month.

 

[BamaFan334]

I would buy me a couple of houses on The Battery in Charleston, a 42' Yellowfin with quad 350's. Then I would set up some trust funds including college tuition stipulations for the kids. And then of course a gameday condo in Tuscaloosa.
