Well yeah - the ROD party goes without saying. Might have to buy a suite for the season and have it available to ROD members only.
BTW - when I bought my ticket it was up to $900 mil.
What would you do with $700,000,000!

Fund a program to teach English in south Florida!
First set up my family. Put enough away that I would live comfortably for life. Then I would hire some good people and set up a awesome animal rescue ranch. And then I would hire some PI's and have them find real people having serious hard times and I would help them get back on their feet. I'd probably also for fun walk up to random homeless people and give them keys to a small house. I could go on and on with 700 mil.
I think the question after no one won the eventual $949M Powerball is what would you do with $1.3B?
Frankly, with a win that big, not only wouldn't I tell a soul, but I'd do like that guy in Maryland did. I'd spend the time putting my things in storage. I'd have all my legal preparations in place including a full name and social security change and right before the deadline, then turn in the ticket.
There are horror stories from folks having won a few million dollars and that's crazy when you think that there are neighborhoods where almost EVERYONE has that even if it's not liquid assets. I can't imagine the crazy for a winner of over a Billion dollars. Chances are, when there is a winner, there will be multiple winners to dilute the pool, but just as easily, there could be one winner. If the person takes the payments, that's $50M per year over 26 years!!!
One thing I would do above and beyond charity and bill paying is I'd get a personal chef because "what's for dinner, tonight, Dad?" Is something I'd love to create a job to answer, especially as a gift for the wife.

I'd buy some cars, invest a lot of it (with a little bit of venture capitalism), continue to work towards my law degree, and try to figure out what I'd want to do with my life. With that sort of money, I'd probably open up a firm that focused on giving legal assistance to indigent people that need it.
Just curious, but what would you hope to gain by investing a billion dollars? Lol
I'd give away 1 mill to each family member and close friends for starters
I'd definitely give some away to friends and family as well. What could I hope to gain? Enough to buy a NFL team. Plus, I wouldn't mind doing some financing in venture capitalism for start-ups. Would be cool to back the next great company or to back a person trying to do great things.
Easy question to answer.
I'D MAKE IT RAIN!!!!!!!!!
After all the fantastic charity work you could do, I'd buy the ROD house that would be open to ROD members for gatherings, especially for Ram's home games. Interestingly enough, there's a piece of property that just hit the market that would fit the bill, the Playboy Mansion!!!!
:yess:
