I was thinking, If I where to win a million dollar, what would I buy first. Maybe I will buy plane ticket and migrate in some place where no one knows me. And then, I will build some business to make my money grow. How about you? What will you buy first?

I will buy a nice house and cars. I will also invest a portion of the money, open up businesses (franchising would be a good option), deposit a big portion in banks and give some to charity. I will also travel the world with my husband and son.

i would buy a big farm in a village and convert the rest of the money into gold. i don't have much faith in currency anymore.

The same for me too. I have been dreaming about buying a nice luxurious house out in the scenic country-side. If a win a lottery, that would be the chance to fulfil my dream. I could then enjoy a very pleasant and refreshing environment as I wish to. I really hope I will win the lottery , now that you have brought up the subject !

There are several things that I would want to do, if I were to win this sort of money. I would want to pay off the debts that my husband and I have accumulated over the last 4 or 5 years through student debt and such. I would want to just get rid of it completely. That's the first thing that I would want to do. I would like to put some of it towards our savings. Be able to go on our honeymoon. These are just some things that I would want to do with this money.

I wish I could win a big amount of money in the lottery if not that $1,000,000! :) I will definitely buy a house for my family first and farm lots. My husband is a farmer so he definitely know everything about farming. I would deposit a trust fund for each of my children and donate to our church (it is under construction now). Let me share to you. We have a townmate who actually won 12million pesos in the lottery! They were asked if they will get it in partial but they decided to get the amount in whole. After 2 years, all the money they had won has gone. Good thing they had invested in real estate. Maybe the money that isn't earned are easily to vanish too? what do you think?

I would pay off my house. Start my business, and pay off some bills. And of course donate some to the church.
