I buy lottery tickets and if I won big the first thing I would do is not tell anyone. I'd quietly tell my close family and share it with them first Then with people who had treated me well. Then I would move to where no one knew me. Good Plan! 
Iām with you Aussieguy! No, seriously...take me with you!

(Hypothetically) After the party phase is over, what would you do with your days? 
Give Ā£750,000 each to my daughters so they can finally move out of the family home, then put my feet up

Hey, If we're dreaming, why not dream big?
We can start with 500 Trillion dollars. First I would take care of my loved ones. Then I would hire the best doctors to restore my health to its best possible condition. Wouldn't really party. I would hire a security force and travel the country anonymously. Would do things to help random people cope. Like: Go into grocery stores and prepay the store so that day, all sales were covered. Go into utility companies and pay down outstanding family unit bills to a zero balance. Construct housing for city homeless. Fund free clinics for health care. Pay down low income student debt. Set up grants for low income trade schools. Open a national recycling center. Have community greenhouses constructed. Plant fruit trees and berry bushes on city land. Hire people to tear down and cleanup abandoned buildings and factories. Provide a tax rescue fund for middle income families. Expand and support the Habitat for Humanity program to include community projects like parks and recreational facilities. Become a supporting sponsor at zoos, libraries and museums. Open a life services national program to teach people basic living. Build a high speed, seaboard to seaboard, transportation corridor with expansion allocations, including mag-lev abilities. Line the highways in rural areas with a network of solar electric panels. Construct higher capacity shelters in disaster prone communities. Buy my own broadcasting network. Then, with the remaining 498 Trillion dollars I would start doing the same for other countries. Working towards making the 3rd world status a thing of the past. |

Maybe you should reconsider buying tickets after all.

Partying??? I think I'd skip that altogether, lol.
- I think I'd first buy myself another car. - Get the therapy that would likely cure my chronic ailments which I now cannot pay for. - Go to Scotland, the Magickal Journey that I now cannot afford that will take me to all this power places. I'd add Culloden to that, as I really want to go there. - Back home, buy myself a house somewhere, not sure where, so first I'd have to find a nice area where I want to live. - Put money aside for retirement - Rent in people to set up my company online with all the to-do. Once that's out of my hair, I can focus on the training session I want to do and start doing them. Get some proper advertising going for them so I start making money, the idea being to invest to keep it going. - Go to my fave crystal shop and buy the crystals I so want! - get the oracle & tarot decks in that are on my bucket list (about 10). - a proper camera to both take good piccies with AND video clips for my YouTube channel and training sessions - buy new clothes and shoes. - Finally get another settee!! And dining room chairs. - New PC, monitor & laptop. When all that is done, bought, and sussed, I think it's time to do some traveling. The online webinars & training sessions I can do from anywhere in the world. Matter of taking my brand-new laptop with me and Bob's your uncle. New Orleans, Mt Shasta, and I want to see Uluru again. |

hmmm...lets see, right now - sometimes i feel altruistic and give to family, charities, homeless, etc; sometimes i feel selfish and spoil me big time with very little consideration of need vs want; sometimes i spend on a whim; i throw up my hands (Yayyyy!!) when the rhythm of life goes up and i hold on tightly (ahhh nutbutter!!) when the darn thing starts the down swing ; at the end of the day, i say "what a ride!"
if i win the lotto - when i feel altruistic i would give to family, charities, homeless, etc; when i feel selfish i would spoil me big time with very little consideration of need vs want; i would definitely spend on a whim; i would throw up my hands (Yayyyy!!) when the rhythm of my life goes up and i hold on tightly (ahhh chitzoo!!) when the darn thing starts the down swing ; at the end of the day, i would say "what a ride!" Now where's the nearest lotto store?... |

Y'know, In a way, I've already won a lottery.
I'm now a few years past my forecasted expiration date. I can't spend the money I get and I have all the material things I need. I'm threadbare in the romantic love department and for that, you don't use money (you can, but you get what you pay for). On a humorous take: "I checked Craigslist for a new girlfriend but the only ones in my price range were old beaters."

A big lottery win for a big list. At least you know exactly what you want. |

You seem pretty genuine Jan so keep your fingers crossed.. I've been on my lonesome for 19 years and you never know your luck.. well I guess I've got to get lucky first. |

Now where's the nearest lotto store?... Maybe you would win enough to do both. This is a fantasy question. Go for it! not sure i follow what you are asking of me...to me, it is all a matter of scale...for example, i travel a bit...before lotto, i book econ coach class and moderate accommodations...after lotto, i book first class and hotel suites...i am still spoiling myself in both instances...just a matter of scale...Charities and family , etc get four or more digit giving instead of two or three... if you want big scale whim...buy an island and a yacht...buy a ticket to travel to the moon and back (they do have those, you know)... my scale is in synch with my means...nothing more, nothing less... |

I'd selfishly forgive myself if I let my altruistic self go with this lottery win.

If I won a big enough lottery to retire early, I would want to spend my days doing something volunteering with children. This is nice. I would do the same. |
