for them to maintain it as long as they live and set up another trust for their own personal
use as they wish for the rest of their lives.
I'd build another home, this time smaller but more of what I want in terms
of space, equipment, landscaping, etc. in an area that I've always liked living in, like the mountains.
I think it was about 350 million a couple of days ago. So that leaves about
$300,000,000 to be invested or given over several years to my daughter, son-in-law,
trusts for my grandchildren--big ones so that they might get terrific educations, then
travel the world over, and finally build the homes of their dreams and settle into a
happy and secure life.
I'd employ someone to be my housekeeper, have all my clothes tailor-made, travel a bit,
and invest heavily in a good Christian church.
The truth is I'd probably drop dead from a heart attack if I won, and my daughter and
their family would be responsible for management of the funds for their lives.
Fun to dream now and then.
Thanks for this.

I posted this in another response this am but...I haven't bought any scratch tickets in the last 3 days - too depressed to get out of the house, and I would have bought 2 powerballs tickets Saturday. Someone in Florida (my state now) won the whole 600 mil. ONE person! It wasn't me. Curses, I tell ya. Hahaha
