Spending My Millions

With the popularity of the lotto in the past week, and I, like everyone else and their mother, buying tickets for the Mega Millions drawing, it got me thinking what I would do if I did happen to win the $640 million dollar jackpot. (After those pesky taxes, of course.)

Well, here's what I quickly mapped out in my head:

Obviously my parents and sister will be taken care of. They will retire, live in a house of their choice, and have everything they ever wanted.

The next people I would help would be my best friends. And by best friends, I mean all 5. Not all my Facebook friends. These select few close friends would be graciously taken care of, and so would their own families.

I would donate generously to a few charities. One of them being the John Wayne Cancer Society, which saved my dad's life. My church would be able to reach out more as well.

I would help those in desperate need, that I know of as well.

And as for me, I would probably buy a new electronic toy, a new FJ Cruiser, a house in Anaheim, then invest and save the rest. I would still work, and I would continue my education as planned.

In all honesty, I don't think I would want to win, actually. Because then you have too many enemies, too many family members asking for money, too many "friends" trying to re-unite, when they had nothing to do with you before. It just seems like it causes more problems then it's worth. But, if I did win enough, this is a brief summary of what I would do with it.
