What if you hit the Lottery?

cluelessgenius

so if you won the lottery for example 26 million € (because thats where the Euro-Jackpot stnad today) what would you do with it?

 

sure its a fun thing to go crazy about but i mean realisticly what would you do with it?

 

as it is only tax free for the first year i would try investing it in property,land,businesses or something so that i would have something with a monthly income instead of buying a yacht and then have no money later on to drive the thing.

LOTTO MOFO

 

 

I would buy a nice house for say 1mil, and a nice car (maybe a business)

 

And the rest I would put into the bank, and I would live off the interest

 

If you had a 2.5% interest rate you would earn 650 grand a year

Anyway,I'd buy what I need.New laptop,get a new GPU,get a DSLR,etc.

Then,I'd get an apartment into another city where I'm going to high school(well,I'm renting it now,but it would be better if I would buy it,right?)

Help my relatives.

I would invest some of them in a business of some sort.

Keep the rest.

Buy a new house in a good location with fast fiber optic, and build a badass rig, and a personal server to use for storing my media/use it as a torrentbox and gameserver. Get my mum a house of her own, with a car. Invest the majority of what's left, and earn interest on it.

Shot through the heart and you're to blame, 30fps and i'll pirate your game - Bon Jovi

Take me down to the console city where the games are blurry and the frames are thirty - Guns N' Roses

Arguing with religious people is like explaining to your mother that online games can't be paused...

I'd try to wake myself up as that wouldn't ever happen.

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

I'd probably buy a pool first. I don't know after that.

Set aside 6m for investing.

Use 5m to throw the biggest SC2 tournament in Korea.

Use the rest to live comfortably.

1. Go to work

2. Run around the building screaming "I QUIT!"

3. Get caught up in the heat of the moment, attempt to make out with the hot secretary in celebration

4. Get sued for sexual harassment

5. Lose all the lottery money in court

6. Live under a bridge with the rest of the homeless

 

:(

Yeah right, more like "you tell the secretary you just won the lottery and she tries to suck your ****"

 

I would build my dream house somewhere under either Colorado or Washington (maybe elsewhere depending on legal developments). Never work again. Invest some of my money so that I don't run out, try and help out with the development of 3d printing. Set up a decent workshop for myself to do whatever blacksmithing/glassblowing/tinkering I feel like.

 

Basically spend the rest of my life nerding out
