Haha love your post, "first off- i'd call in rich to work"
SO true!
If I won 50 million dollars, I'd change my major to something fun like photography, pay for school all at once, buy a car, and then see where the wind takes me. :)

I bought a ticket for that! Sadly, I was no winner, not even a free ticket. I would pay off all my school debt and my boyfriends, travel for the last 2 months of summer with my bf, go back to school for my last year and then who knows what I would do after that?! And of course, give a tonne to my parents!

That's so funny you should post this... just yesterday my friend & I were talking about all the crazy things we'd do if we won 90 million dollars (That's ACTUALLY how much is up for grabs right now in Quebec, Canada... crazy, right?!)
Anyway we came up with a really awesome list, but at the very top of it was to travel the entire world and take as long as we want doing it. There's so much to experience outside our home... it would be amazing!!

I would 1) pay off my student loans, 2) pay for grad school up front, 3) go to India for 3 months to volunteer, 4) donate a few mil to the orphanage I worked at in Jamaica, 5) donate another few mil to the school I worked at in Togo, 6) buy myself a fab apartment in the city, 7) build a beach house in the Dominican Republic.
I could think of a few other things, I'm sure =)

I've never really bought lotto tickets either but I also have for the past 2 weeks!!! And I will again this week because the lotto rolled over again!
I would buy a few things, but I think I would mostly invest. 7% interest on 50 million is like 3.5 million a year. yep... I could live on 3.5 mill a year.

I was JUST in Ontario and guess what? I played! lol. Needless to say I left and just threw away the paper but I don't think I won. Anyway, in response to your question, I'd give away half and disappear with the rest. Like WIPE off the fac of the planet. Most likely move to my favorite city on earth (Madrid) with a summer home in Rio (hot men everywhere!). Okay I'll stop dreaming now.

My boyfriend and I often talk about this. We'd pay off our debt and buy a really kick ass house with brand new everything. I'd quit my job and start my own business.He said he'd donate money to the non profit he works at. I'd probably donate some to breast cancer research.

I would probably buy things for my family (car for dad, cottage for mom, college for sister), pay off grad school, donate to the Thai dog sanctuary I volunteered at, and travel, travel, travel. Other than that I'd probably stay my level-headed self and not blow it all at once.
Now you got me wishing I won!

I would just be cool. I'd dump half of it into my own record label. And it could be a cool thing with the ethics of a good indie label like Kill Rock Stars or Drag City or Matador, but with some real money behind it. I'd ultimately like to spend my time finding amazing bands, recording them, and putting out their records. Putting all the profits back into the label.
I'd also like to work on saving humanity from destroying the planet. But I don't know. I'd probably just give like 12 million to my buddy, Risha, and I'd say, "Hey Risha! Here's some cash to help you save the world."
I'd also make sure no one in my family would suffer from money-worries ever again. Well, no, but I'd do my best to take care of them.
And I'd probably buy a small piece of property in the Pacific Northwest somewhere, property that has some sort of water running through it. And I'd build myself a 4 bedroom wooden house. And there'd be a pretty bitchin' recording studio.And I'd have one room that is so saturated with pillows and soft things, and I'd call it "The Womb Room," and I'd get a TV on the ceiling to watch movies on, and I would take a lot of bong hits in that room. Oh, and of course, "The Womb Room" would be mostly purple in colour.
And I'd get a dog. And maybe some peacocks.
