What would you do if you win $1000000 in a lottery?

Imagine you won $1000000 - Sometimes this much money does not bring happiness...

Many people in the world play lotteries and want to become a millionaire. Very few lucky people win a big amount of money. However, is it appropriate to call them lucky? Because, many of those who play lotteries don't even know what to do with the money they would like to win. There is evidence that some lottery winners become flat broke after several years. Do you play any lottery? If you do, why? What would you do if you suddenly win a huge amount of money?

You did not answer the question in full! Be more descriptive! Try to think carefully at first,do you really need such a big amount of money?

Okay, but is that all what you would do if you win? Arent a million dollars to much to accomplish your wish? You could find a good BMW for only $50000. Maybe you have some other wild dreams?

Okay, but is that all what you would do if you win a million dollars? Arent one million dollars too much to accomplish your wish? You could find a good BMW priced somewhere between $50000 and $100000. Maybe you have some other wild dreams?

Firstly, Im not playing lottery at all cos i feel that i dont have luck with this kind of game or any game. But in the situation where if ever i win the lottery, maybe first thing that im going to do is to invest my money in a certain property, most likely house and lot cos the value of houses and lots really increase quickly in the market. Pay all the debts to have piece of mind,, keep some of the money in the bank(time deposit) and just take out a bit of money to spend for everyday use.

if this really happens I shall donate 90% of it to some good social cause. because I have plenty of money which is hard earned one and happy with this much. This won't finish for atleast 100 generations to come. My money & wealth is in knowledge and I am sure all my followers will love to be educated and successful people in the society arround. There is not a single example of such person in our family who expected any thing like this in the past and no chance in future too. This is our genetics......
