One has every right to dream. It will be interesting and pleasure to share the views, what will you do if by sheer luck, if you get 1 million $ as prize in lottery.

Pay off all of my debt and my finaces debt, invest wisely enough to be able to live off of the interest, open an account for my son to have money to go to school, buy a house and two new cars (sell my old ones and use that money to at least pay the car insurance for a few years), send my finace to martial arts school in California, and go to school full time. Never ever go into debt again!

I'd buy myself a house, and leave the remainder in a savings account at my bank. Maybe possibly open up my own shop.

if i ever won the lottery, i would first buy a house to live after i get out of school and get a job. i would then get servants but would think that i wouldnt want to be all lazy. i would also get people to do the wishes that i probably know it wouldnt come true.

If I came into a million dollars, I would to pay taxes. I would also donate it appropriately to charities that really do help out. With what is left I would set a bit back for investing (to help cover additional taxes and such). I would search for a worthy piece of land and build as many homes as I could on it, maybe some that were duplexes or triplexes and such (or set it up with a specific theme, and time). I would build a park and hopefully both and indoor and outdoor pool (but at least an indoor). I would have room for useful gardens; fruits, vegetables, herbs etc. And I would invite my loved ones a place to stay, their own space. We could have our own little paradise. Maybe be one of those place that others like to come and explore and visit, and have room for guests available at no cost (if they wanted to donate an amount that would be their choice). I would like to have a huge hall (with kitchen) so we can all eat together, put on dances and shows to amuse ourselves and guests. A place where there were no obligations, but a sense of desire to give back just as you have received. Where you can Play, Laugh, Love together, and be stronger for it. You can't take it with you, but you can share it with those you love while you are here.

Thank you, I appreciate your wishes. I do have a great deal of happiness already. I just think it would be nice to have everyone who wanted to, to live close and be able to share with others. Happiness is a choice, and I am happy to make it. Being able to help everyone else they way I would really desire to, would be a tremendous blessing. Thank you for giving me something to ponder, and to keep striving for, even if I don't win a large sum of money. May blessings always follow you.

If you spend it immediately, the happiness will be over in a few days. Why do not plan for long term strategies? May god fulfill your wishes at the earliest.

I do not think that one million $ is so big amount of money that make somebody to dream , for the racent times 100 millions $ may be , time is changing , and one million may not be so big to achieve many things , I know many who has that amount and could not satisfy many of their needs !

You are right. In the present day, one million is nothing. People should get 10million dollars to make up their mind for permanent solution to life's problems and live happily thereafter. Thanks for your interesting response.

I would take what's left after Taxes and tithes, Invite family, and my circle of "Beloved's" ( the ones that are always THERE/HERE when Needed) To a Party where there is a buffet of all our Favorite foods,after we have eaten and are getting ready to go, make them all line up, close eyes and hold out their hands where I would place Greeting cards, then get them to open their eyes and cards, as they all are laughing about the comic and seemingly fake gift cards enclosed. Then I would challenge them to put them into a Atm or Credit/gift card machine at a seemingly fake checkout counter as each one is handed cash before they leave with all my love and gratitude.... Might as well share it, I say!

These ten bucks give it to charity. I do not take money from misers. I cannot give my lottery money to you, because it is all meant for charity.
