I ain't telling, because then y'all would know where to find me! :-) Have a fun drive!
I would do pretty much what you suggested: disappear. I'd also consult with lawyers and not tell a soul for a while.
But soon you would have to tell....it's one of the requirements for winning.

I would hire you all as my minions to run mole accounts to disrupt DU.
Well, I'd definitely buy a huge mansion somewhere in the north of Canada, and build a giant, colosseum-sized underground amphitheater beneath it with portcullises all around, from which, at the touch of a button, I can release ravenous, 12- to 14-foot Komodo dragons to tear apart DUmmies that Mr. SB's minions have captured. Naturally, you'd all be invited to the party (to the bullet-proof glassed-in viewing sections above the amphitheater, no worries mates).
330 Million? Holy crap.
I'd invest about 95% of it and use the other stuff for some basic things I need such as a house and possibly a small African country.
It's up to $355M.

What would I do with $330 million? I can think of a few things...My first standing back flip.
Pay my parents' leftover medical bills.
Buy my father a new car.
Pay back the in-laws for the wonderful financial help they've given to us.
Give out some to family; pay off a few mortgages, start a few college funds (especially one for our son), just throw it around a little.
Build our own house (well, have it built, specifically).
Buy a few nice AR-15 setups and some SHTF items (and those new hunting boots, too).
Donate some to a few area churches and buy ours a whole mess of nice things they could really use.
Learn about investing and invest.
A new Dodge Durango, maybe a four-door RAM to go with it.
My own laptop.
Charities will get some, too.
No, I don't think about this one too much :D
This topic is the exact source of material for the screenplay I took a few weeks off to complete.
For my own selfish reasons, I hope someone wins it all this week, otherwise, I'll have to adjust my script accordingly. :banghead:
Believe me, once we have a shooting draft (and have it copyrighted), I'll be thrilled to share it with everyone!!!!!
You got your first H5 for having Meatwad in your signature. :rofl:
Buy my wife all the plastic surgery she wants.Two words: Jocelyn
:tongue:

Kevin Carson is a young man living in the projects who has to survive a three-day weekend after his opportunistic neighbors find out he's holding a winning lottery ticket worth $370 million.
It isn't like this is it? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0979434/
Don't tell anyone, but he's doing a remake of Brewster's Millions. (http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff68/kayaktn/smileys/laughing.gif)
I think the goal of BM was to spend the money and have no assets left over at the end.
I thought mailing the stamp was a stroke of genius.
I got my ticket. I'm going to buy a missile silo someplace and stock it with whatever I'd need and wait for the Zombie/Dummie Apocolypse.
And NOT go to my job. Ever. Except to pick up my last paycheck. :hyper:

That's what I would do too if I still had a job. They would know if I won, because I wouldn't be there anymore. Someone else could do the work. And a big THANK YOU to anyone who wins and quits their job immediately. That's one job created/saved. ;)
I didn't win. You all are stuck with me.:picsneeded:
I would work until I got that first check from the lottery, but I'd make sure to use any vacation and personal time coming to me before telling them I was quitting.I might go to that place, but, I certainly wouldn't accomplish a ******* thing
:picsneeded:
:-* :wink:
2 people won. One in Idaho, one in Washington. Dang.
I've been going through my numbers and I won $5 so far.... but my baby kept trying to steal my tickets, so I will hold off until nap time.
Money grubbing republican.

First of all, unless someone won the entire $330 Million themselves, which they didn't, if they took the lump sum, it would only be ~$160 Million BEFORE taxes.
First of all, unless someone won the entire $330 Million themselves, which they didn't, if they took the lump sum, it would only be ~$160 Million BEFORE taxes. The Usurper, 0bama would want 40% of that, so that leaves ~$ 96 Million. If they took the payments, which I believe is over 25 years, that would wind up about $7.2 Million per year after taxes. (that cumbersome 40%)
If I won it, I would be able to spend about $5-15 Million right off the bat. (new house with some land, pay for the kid's college, new vehicles, a nice yacht and an airplane) After that, I don't what the hell I'd spend it on. I'd probably donate to a few different charities every year. I MIGHT even be able to change how a few of them are run, e.g., the Navy Relief Society, The American Red Cross, etc.
I already said I'd buy you a truck if I won it - I guess you missed that. :bawl:

We all did a lot of homework, and with the cooperation of both the Illinois and California State Lottery offices, were very happy with the access we were given, vis-a-vis our storyline.
And I can tell all you naysayers that our script has NOTHING resembling either "Brewster's Millions", Ice Cube's "The Ticket," or any other previous story concerning a lottery win.
I can honestly say I think you'll all be very pleased with what we've done with this unique, tragic, and heretofore, UNTOLD story! :-)
Aw, come on. Hollywood is all about remakes, so you need to re-do Brewster's Millions! I'm thinking Dave Chappelle for the Richard Pryor role, maybe Seth Rogen or Jack Black for the John Candy role. :lmao:
I'd also have to ask for a cheap house on some FLAT land. You've been here, so you know what I mean (something under $200K)
Do you honestly think that finding a house, or better yet, building a house on some flat land - maybe down toward Dallas a little bit - would be a problem when you've got $60 million to spend? :o
Hell, you could even have a gold-plated crapper for that kinda money! :rotf:
What would you do with $330 Million?
TWO CHICKS AT THE SAME TIME.

Here's your two chicks.......

You don't need a million bucks to do nothing, take a look at my cousin. He's broke, don't do shit.
Honestly, after building a house and furnishing it, I think I'd have a few select people killed. In a completely friendly manner of course.

I don't hate anybody enough to have them killed. There are a small handful that come close, though. With that much money, I'd probably just opt for ruining their lives. ;)
Well, I read in the local paper today that they're having a sale on manslaughter (30% off) and because demand is down at this time of year, the rate for murder has been hacked to 60% off. (The customer has to get rid of the body, though.)My family and friends have backhoes. I can dispose of any number of bodies... (hypothetically)
