My husband plays the lotto every week. $52 a year, every year since I've known him. He says "I know the odds are astronomical, but SOMEBODY has to win...could be me." "People waste a dollar a week on dumber things then this." Recently, some people in Nebraska won $285,000,000. He says, "I always feel a little disappointed when I don't win the big jackpots." He tells me all the plans he as for the money if he ever wins.
If I won a couple million dollars, I invest 1/2, pay off bills and then buy a nice, new, decorator model type home in California right next to my grandkids! Then, I'd go on a couple of exotic vacations...maybe to one of those spas that gets you in shape after a month and have a makeover. I'd take some photography classes and have fun with graphic arts (maybe travel a bit). I'd give my kids a new car or pay off some of their bills so they could get a fresh start. Then, just live the simple life. I don't need fancy cars, clothes, jewelry, none of that. Actually, sounds like I'd run out of money LONG before I got to do 1/2 of those things. LOL. But, anyway...
It's fun to dream. What would you do if you won??

Hey, you forgot about your sis!!!
Hmmm...I would definitely pay off bills - big burden. I would invest some, of course. I'd have a home some place warm and a new house in WI. Kids college funds. I'd want to give some to my church, although I don't think they would take it. I'd help my parents be set for life. I'd take my siblings on a family vacation. I'd love to go shopping and buy a whole new wardrobe from underwear to jewelry to jackets to shoes...you get the picture. And I'm sure lots more, but I don't want to make this the longest comment ever!
Funny, I didn't know J bought a ticket every week! Has he ever won anything? We won $100 once. The inlaws play faithfully, and yell at us when we don't buy when it's a big one.
