If I won the lottery...

...I'd be a pretty boring winner. I've had people ask me this type of question before, and I really struggle with it! I would, in all honesty, start with paying off my debt. I'd sock some away for later -- a retirement fund and/or a savings account. Only then would I start having fun with it. I would not quit my job, but if it was a LOT of money, I might encourage my sweetie to stop working. MIGHT. I think I'd go a bit insane if I knew he was home all the live-long day doing absolutely nothing productive. I just feel it's so vital to contribute to the world in a meaningful fashion ... I can't imagine just frittering away my days for weeks on end. I'd be so bored. If I won the lottery, my family and friends would be just thrilled. I think I'd see if I could buy a jet & hire a pilot, and then just fly people to all kinds of interesting destinations, to see one another. Yeah, I think most of my money would go to travel. And I'd donate time on the plane to needy causes -- organ transplants, kids with terminal illnesses, things like that. That sounds like fun & rewarding. That's my kind of life -- fun, yet rewarding!
