If I win the next powerball drawing...

Actually, if I were to get a condo in a large city, I wouldn't mind living in London. Not sure how that would work though, me not being English and all :embarrassed:

With a several hundred mil, you can have an apartment in NYC overlooking Central Park, one in Paris, London, Lake Lucerne, a home in Beverly Hills or Malibu, one in Rio, a cabin in the Rockies, and a Gulfstream IV and still have hundreds of millions left. Use your imagination, people! :gah:
(I wouldn't want too many homes but you get the point)

Not to mention you could afford a private jet and crew. God damn that would be sweet.

I wouldn't buy a plane. I don't think I'd ever be in that big a hurry again.

Avoiding the "fun" of airports would be a wonderful luxury.
I'd rather become a Million Air charter customer and let them deal with employees and maintenance. One of their FBO's is 20 minutes away and the people are really nice.

I'd like to move out west somewhere. But I would be happy anywhere, really.

I'm torn as to whether I'd buy a house, or get a condo.

I'd want to crank up some amps (ruling out a condo), but I hate doing yardwork :embarrassed:

Um, with that kind of scratch, you could buy a landscaping company and have them do all of you yard work :grin:
 
I'd buy out Luna Guitars, get Yvonne out of retirement, and have her design the Gary Blanchard signature Luna - you all would get one. :hippie:

(I was at a gas station that sells the tickets and thought, what the hell; I'll buy one ticket.)

SOMEONE is GOING to win this thing......this week, next week....it's GOING to happen. and you could be the one just as much as anyone else.
that's the beauty of the lottery.......there's no 'influence' in who wins.
 
It's worth the $2 just to dream a bit about what I would do with the money.

I actually put some money in also with my group at work. I thought there is no way they are going to win without me and leave me there to do every one else's work. No friggin' way!
 
1) Take care of the family and friends...yadda yadda yadda...
2) A few discreet real estate purchases,
3) A few charities would suddenly become very, very happy.

Then lots of guitars and amps, of course.
 
I'd contact mystixboi1's wife and offer her a trust fund for her children, covering their entire educations and their living expenses all through grad school. With the catch being that everything would be cut off the second that John buys another instrument.

I'd also contact Mrs. Blanchard, letting her know that I'm offering Gary a very lucrative contract as an exclusive full-time film critic and Manzer endorser.

I'd pay Mark to post political banners at his studio and on his website. I'd pay him 20x the estimated dollar value of revenues lost due to this.

I'd provide tompetty with the care that he needs.

I'd hire Jbird, relocate him to somewhere nice and give him a really nice condo. He'd spend his days selling speciality jazz/classical/'world' music vinyl, under a really great boss.

I'd flood Oklahoma.

I'd buy Jammity a weekly 'massage' from the 'masseuse' with the most leathery skin and the most sand-papery hands in all of California, just the way he likes it.

And everyone would get a lot of great booze.

My hero! Hopefully TV will think twice about asking some random guy on the street again.

Hahahahahhahahah. They won't.

Yeah, same here. The language barrier would be a deal killer.
 
I bought my ticket last night. It was up to 800 million. It was $2.00 I thought they were $1.00. Then she asked me if I wanted to do the power play for $3.00. I said no, $700 million is enough, do I have to do the $3.00 for the $700 million? She didn't know. Hope I bought the right one.

You only need to spend $2 for the grand prize. The power play stuff is for the lesser prizes with partial matching tickets I think.
