I would donate a good chunk but then buy a beautiful new house with great entertaining space, throw great parties, buy new cars, travel, get a makeover, etc...I would do volunteer work in my current field, but definitely no job!

I won 10 dollars!

Quit my job on the spot they totally deserve it, then pack some bags and find another state or country to move to. I won't be staying here.

I have the winning ticket but I have not yet turned it in.

I am getting good ideas from DCUM first so I know what to do with the money.

I thought they knew if someone won because they knew the numbers had been drawn?....

I won $8

I would build my dream home. Nothing huge- probably 3000 sq feet would be good. A magazine gorgeous craft room for me and my very own toilet in the master bedroom. It would have stunning outdoor living space - a pool designed by the tv guy who builds pools with grottos, an outdoor kitchen and outdoor media center (tv, sound system, etc)

I would setup trusts for my children.

I would endow a couple of scholarships. One in my mom’s name in her town to one of her favorite charities. Probably one at my childrens’ high school..

My “show off how much $$ I have” would be to donate enough to have a building named after me/my family. Not sure exactly where that would be - while I spend the first year on a round the world vacation, I’ll decide where to donate my money.

That's like saying "I'll donate $100 million charity and another $5 million to some guy working for Merrill Lynch."

If you have half a billion dollars, you don't need to invest.

So that the half billion continues to grow for your kids/grandkids

That's enough wealth to last many lifetimes if managed correctly

I would divorce my wife and marry that fake chested joker face Lauren Sanchez

Did they announce a winner?

I would give all (most of) my relatives and friends $1 million each. Buy a family beach house for everyone. Build my dream home. Get a dog.

Secretly buy properties.
Set up a trust.

I don't really need that much money. Just need to finish with paying off the house, get myself a new car, save enough to last 30 years. I really just need $5000 a month after tax.
Maybe an extra 50k a year for 30 years would be sufficient.

Seriously, it would only be 60,000 a year?
