If you won the lottery what is the first thing you would do? I would pay off all my family and friends bills. Then I'd get out of the city and buy some land build a nice cabin, have a fully stocked fishing pond. And just enjoy the peace and quiet

I'm aiming to get a super lottery: the Euromillion Jackpot was 100million Euro yesterday 1) I'd love to set up an old age home with medical care facilities for the poor aged, daily exercise routines, bingo or brain training games etc.... - a place where unwanted old people could spend their last few years happily looked after without stressing about how they could afford it......I'd stipulate a monthly amount to be maintained by my descendants. 2) Invest in education and sustainable organic farming in rural areas in KZN - fostering development in the young and showing them the benefits of giving back to their environment, nurturing their interests to become giving and respectful adults willing to reinvest in their country and offspring.

One of the things I've often thought about is after bills are paid and family is all good and close friends, etc., then I would like to make up envelopes with money in them (cash, of course). $ 1,000.00 envelopes $ 10,000.00 envelopes and $ 25,000.00 envelopes These would be given out anonymously. The lady at the bank who is always wearing a smile no matter how rude customers are; people that you know at work that could use a hand or a vacation; the single mom with 2 kids who is working hard to make a good home for her kids; the waiter who is working 2 jobs to go to school; ... I could go on and on. I think it would be awesome to give anonymously.

Pay the bills for everyone I care about, set money aside for college for my children, nephews and nieces, and take my mum to travel with me for a while.

I think that is so sweet and the thought that you would take your mum to travel with you is just a wonderful thought! Best wishes on winning that lotto!

Give some to family and friends. Move to Florida (that's if the USA would have me) Donate a fair chunk to cancer research and carry on studying then working. I would have plenty of free time too of course.

After taking care of bills family and friends...finding the perfect getaway home and traveling a bit i would like to find or build a facility to help the homeless. Give them a clean warm room. .at least two meals...daycare....or tutoring....clothing and training on interviews. Give them a hand up... not a handout.

I'd buy a cabin up North, then bank the rest. Civilized society wouldn't see me again :)

Pay for my nieces and nephews education and buy myself a nice log cabin. Oh yeah, put enough money away to live on for a very long time.

Eat the biggest spicy bean and beef burrito I could find, and then take a huge dump on my bosses desk.

Missy, tu sabes que es lo triste?, que yo nunca he jugado la loteria! The sad part is I have never played the lotto. And I am not sweet: I am ruff, and rough... lol Good to cuddle up at night, loyal, and too much energy for most!
