There has been a lot of chatter these last few days about what we'd do with the billion. How would you spend it, would you still work, etc. So I've been thinking about it a lot.
I said I would definitely still work. When I'm on vacations from work, I always say that I'd be ok never working again, but in all honesty, I think I'd be bored...because everyone else I know, would be working. LOL But I'd enjoy working part time. Ideally, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday!
And I'd definitely take a lot of time of to travel the world. Give me a month of beaches and margaritas!!
I'd of course pay off my mortgage and all my bills, and donate some to my favorite charities!
I'd do a lot of shopping too. I don't think I'd be more extravagant. My ass would still be shopping Target!!
And last but not least, I'd definitely get a driver!! :)
Oh to dream!!
My principal recently told us that the state lottery was created to provide money to schools. I wonder where that all went awry. And the fact that the government and the country takes more than half is ridiculous. So the winner won't really be a billionaire, but rather a 5 hundred-ish millionaire!!
This was floating around Facebook this week....
And this is what wrong with the internet, but it's good for a laugh! Every American would only get $4.33. With what the government takes, it'd be less! It wouldn't even cover the U.S. population!
The odds of winning the Powerball tonight are 1 in 292,000,000. HA!! Nevertheless, my fingers are crossed!!
So did you play? And what would you do with the money if you were the lucky winner? Let me know in the comments below!!
Hahaha yep we won $4. So lame!
ReplyDeleteI bought a ticket last week but it is so not me and those odds are just for the birds. My husband probably bought another ticket. If you won/win can I have 5k? That's all I need lol. xoxoxox Amanda
ReplyDeleteIf you won the money, I would make sure you experience some Canadian winter!
ReplyDeleteI bought a ticket 2 minutes before the cut off and didn't get one number! But fun to dream about even if for a few hours :)
