      1. Castle on a mountaintop, complete with rather substantial garage
      2. Cars to fill that garage
      3. Perhaps do some sort of volunteer work as my "job".
      4. Travel alot.

        First, my family will be taken care of. Then, buy a race shop, probably NASCAR. Donate a lot to charity. Feed The Children comes to mind. Then...disappear.

          Short term while I figure things out... I'd pull an "office space". I wouldn't quit my job for at least a week. I'd show up whenever I wanted... do and say whatever I wanted... until I got tired of it or they fired me. That would be fun.

          Longterm: I'd learn about investments, travel all the time, build my own MASSIVE shop... the wife can decide what she wants for a house... makes no difference to me.

          And I'd hire a few private investigators and lawyers... and bankrupt a few people.

          Then I might finish college, go to law school, and spend my time getting beat up by cops and suing them...

            HA HA SUCKERS. Canadians don't pay taxes on prize winnings. You could live off that money your whole life here and never pay a dime of income tax

            But I don't think anyone here has won't that kind of money even after tax the tax deductions that dude will recieve. But hey we have 10X less people.

                bah, like anyone needs that much money anyway, you coudl easily never do anything for the rest of your life after it got the taxes taken out of it


                oh, and right after i bought my non winning ticket i decided that i was going to split the money equally between me, my sister, and my 5 closest friends

                i figured if i had a good use for the money in my heart and wasnt all greedy i might have a better chance at winning...

                  i would have to buy as much land as possible. that way, there's either gonna be a few trees left in 20 years, or i'll make a killing selling to those chumps that make subdivisions with "loserwood acres" names and get like triple the money back. in my neck of the woods theres gonna be 3000+ new homes in the next 6 years.

                    365 Million. Can't comprehend. You can't either. Buy an island. Gilligan!

                    Buy a state!

                    Buy a planet.

                    A star!

                    M -o -o - n! That spells Nebraska!

                      Pfft... Nebraska ain't worth $365 million

                      My own needs wouldn't extend much past shouldering the debts of my immediate family and close friends, and getting myself a house. My wants wouldn't extend much further than building myself a red-brick victorian 3-story manor, preferably in somewhere woody. Nothing too obscene, about 4500sqft or so, with a red-brick carriage house rife with tools and a built-in lift.

                      Next, I'd portion out enough money to build myself a machine shop/speed shop. I'd hire machinists, buy the tools, and basically operate it "Not For Profit." I'd set aside enough spare coin to keep a couple of lads on staff and the shop open for 15 years. If it makes money, great, otherwise, who cares? I think I'd also dump a few mill into building myself a private speedway somewhere on my estate, with long, banked curves, fast straights, and a nicely complicated road-course. Hell, just flat-top three square miles and buy up an assload of tires to make the courses. Then I'd start a SCCA league and host events and car-shows.

                      I'd take probably 10 million of what's left, lock it away tight, and live off the interest.

                      Above all, I think the goal would be to set myself up unconditionally in a job I've always wanted to do. I'd have to think about it more, but I think being an automotive journalist would rock. As for cars, I think I'd have more fun test-driving them rather than owning them. I'd probably use the wealth to establish myself as a review writer, and just review cars. on my property. Since I wouldn't need the money, I could work cheap, and get into the market that way


                      The remaining balance would go anonymously to a few assorted charities. All I'd want is enough locked away to make sure myself, my wife, and my kids would never have to stress about cash.

                      And yes, I'd still make my kids work when they turn 16... NO FREE RIDES!

                        I would build a hydrogen generation facility. Then I would invest gobs into the fuelcell market.

                        I would Also take a few mill to secure a future for my family.

                        Dubya would hate me.
