Fortis Report post Posted January 12, 2016 I would do the ex-pat thing until my 15 minutes of fame blew over. You want to be invisible, just move overseas. Obviously not an option for everyone.....but for the single, gotta do it. You can move to Singapore and not feel so bad that you're spending $500k for a new Maserati. No way, you move to Singapore you will feel poor Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortis Report post Posted January 12, 2016 How does this look? I know it might be a bit vague, but I think it gives a little idea of what I'm going for..... Few adjustments, no windows next to the door, lose the bodykitted Aventador and go for the Holy Trinity + a nice Veyron, the rest is good!

Kevin2772 Report post Posted January 12, 2016 I thought about the same. After taxes and cash option, you're left with probably $800 mil? Not really sure to be honest, but you can buy some of the lower 15 NBA/NHL/MLB teams for that much. The cash option on the powerball is like $800-$900 million. After taxes and such you are probably down around the $500-$600 million payout range.....how anybody would survive with just that is beyond me....

Fortis Report post Posted January 12, 2016 I find ridiculous the fact that you guys have to pay tax on winnings. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortis Report post Posted January 12, 2016 Why do you think they even allow the Lotto? I know lottery is a very profitable voluntary tax but I still find it ludicrous that you can not claim any loses or expenses but you are due to pay when you win.

megachad Report post Posted January 12, 2016 First I would set up some trusts for my children and some close family members. I would have portions deposited into Roth IRA's for my children so they have retirement accounts. I would also set it up to where they could only take out so much money over a certain period of time so no stupid spending. I would educate them on how to make their money grow. I would take care of some close friends in the same way. I have a great group of friends that would never expect it. They would be the ones that would really enjoy it. Next I would place some large investments in Mastercard, Visa, Google, Apple, and Microsoft. I would create a foundation for donating money to parents with children with disabilities. I would go and get my pilots license and purchase a jet and start to travel. Of course I would enjoy many awesome toys along the way, but most of all I would enjoy my friends with those toys!

MrDoctor Report post Posted January 12, 2016 Dang. I would try to stay as low key as possible until I knew what I really wanted. But for sure I would sit on the floor of every big NBA event. That's the first thing I would do and only thing I want to do ( feels like I'm contradicting myself a bit here). Then I would try to do some good with it. That's about it. I'm obviously not expecting to win this thing LOL. Wheels. Maybe you should try suing first. Let them know who the man is !

Rawr Report post Posted January 13, 2016 So gents the day is potentially here. Any other bright ideas on what to do with more money than anyone'll ever need? Buy an SV and . Buy out all the seats at your most hated sport team and have them play in an empty arena? Go to the moon? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobberBaron Report post Posted January 13, 2016 Oh I am going to win despite the odds. Already have a deposit down on a brand new Gulfstream G650.
