If I won the lottery I the first thing I would buy would be a mansion because I just really want a exquisite house. Plus all you really need in life is a house and food.

If I won the lottery, the first thing I would buy is gold, because its cost is ever increasing.

If I won the lottery, the first thing I would buy is a plot, where I can build a book stall. Then with the remaining money I will do business.

If I won the lottery I would give some money to my family, then buy ticket to fly to Costa Rica. I don't want a big house or fancy car, I want to live somewhere calm and simple and peaceful.

The first thing I would do is call my dad and mom and tell them they can retire! But seriously, I personally would not spend the money straight away because if I spend it then it will finish and my descendents won't have anything to enjoy so therefore I would invest the money in a business and keep on expanding until I start earning big sums of money every day. Not only will I be happy, but I would be doing my kids a big favour when it comes to their money needs.

May be i will get a family package vacation to one of the beautiful places in my country. I want my family to take a rest and relax for a while especially my mom since she's been working at the age of 25.

I think the first thing I would do is get all my bills caught up and paid off. This is such an issue right now and having the money available to me would lift this burden off my shoulder. Especially the credit cards, they are out of control and that would be one worry out of the way. Next it would depend on the the amount of the prize one, I would fix up and decorate my home

I will buy my self a new house and lot. Well just like you. But it depends on how much money I won. Maybe a car. But if my winnings is not that big maybe ill invest it in some business opportunities.
