If I won the lottery, I would be debt free.  I have student loans, which would be paid off first and any other bills I owe would be paid.  I then would buy myself a double-wide trailer, buy my husband and me a new car, give some money to my daughter who is struggling, and the rest of it I would make sure to invest. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :wave:

If I won the lottery I would want a new, luxury home like the celebrities and professional ballplayers have.  And I would love to travel and see the world. But I know that will never happen to me.

I would buy a piece of property large enough to fit and build individual homes for my family members (Mother/Brother, Sister, me).  There would be no such thing as an "HOA."  For myself, the home I would build would be an Adobe home (always wanted one!) and my family members could have their choice of what they want.  I would give a large sum to help animals in need (because I am a very big animal lover).  I would have my personal health issues dealt with and, the rest, would be socked away.

If I won the lottery I first off would no longer be so stressed over debt and bills. I would pay off all of my debt. Help my family with things they may need. Then my husband and I would move to either California or Florida, buy a new house with land so I can have lots of animals, (something I have always wanted) and then continue from there.

I would first give 10% to my Church, then pay off all by bills, then I would start checking into who/what I wanted to donate to. Basically I would give most of it away. The one thing I would not do is to move.  I love my house and I love being close to those I love.

If I won the lottery I would make sure our 3 girls and their families are taken care of as the first order of business.  I would pay off all their bills, build them new houses if they wanted them and give each a certain amount of money they could invest or spend.  I would certainly give plenty to our Church.  I would build my husband and I a new house with enough land that if any of the girls and their families wanted to they could have some of the land and build their houses on it.  (Not too close to ours! lol)  I would fence the entire acerage and hire someone to tend to it all on a regular basis.  I would share some of the money with my brothers and sisters that are still living as I know they would do the same for me.  THEN, I'd do what I've always wanted to do;  Travel, travel, travel!!

Pay off my debts, new car, insure it up to date well ahead of time (like 2 or 3 years up if the company would allow), new furniture, and give a good chunk to the kids and put another good chunk into trust for the grandkids' educations.
