My family is all out of school and all grown up so I'd...
1. Pay off all my families mortgage's. They all have brand new houses so no need for new ones. However, I would build myself a new house with enough room for friends.
2. Pay off my car loan and purchase at least 3 different types of cars.
3. Travel the world. I'd go to Europe, Asia, Australia, and South America over a few months time.
4. Purchase season tickets to the Cubs, Bears, and Bulls
5. Then after all that is said and done I'd go back for my masters and start teaching. |

I would use it wisely. The first thing I would do would be to pay off all my bills and pay off my moms. I would put some of the money in the bank and make sure I invested the rest. Of course I would buy me a few nice things but I would make sure that money lasted me so I wouldn't have to work again and to be able to travel the world like I have dreamed about. |

I got inspired by the great book, "The Happiest People On Earth" by Demos Shakarian - founder of www.fgbmfi.org
He made it his goal to be able to give away 90% of his income to God's work on Earth & many in FGBMFI have same goal
& surpass it...
just as Demos did
He also founded ASsociated DAiries - parent company of ASDA - whose parent company, Wal-Mart - stands for Walton's Mart
It was founded by the real-life Waltons family, but 30-years on
You may have heard the phrase Nickel & Dime Stores?
That was the brainchild of Bud Walton, who saw that major chain stores focuused on big cities
Bud was determined that small town & rural folk would get good supplies at bargain prices
God honored that by making them *1 retail chain in the world when they were only in 7 countries, 2/3 of which had average personal incomes of less than one-seventh of USA average income
& 2 more had average personal incomes of less than one quarter of it
I told God, several times, that if I won the lottery, He knows that I don't want a flashy house, as it only draws burglars...
that I don't want a flashy clothes, as it only draws muggers..
that I don't want a flashy car, as it only draws road rage dangers
I told him how little a fund would make me feel financially secure till Jesus returns
& that He could have all the rest, no matter how many milllions or billions may come thru Versatile Trust or Mercy Cosmos Miracle Communities
I bought rollover, double-rollover & triple-rollover Lotto tickets several times
Having seen many other prayers answered, I knew He was saying that He does not want to endorse gambling in any way, as it wrecks so many lives, so I no longer buy Lotto but trust in Bible principles of prosperity - yahoo that
A lady said @ news of folk who'd won lots, spent it like water & were back as poor as before
There are many such cases
That shows the truth of how "God gave them the desires of their hearts & sent leannesss to their souls"
& Proverbs about God making sure that ill-gotten gains are like money dropping thru a bag of holes, etc
Proverbs 1-31 main thrust is contrasting the good & the evil/wicked
True stewardship of resources is in 1 Corinthians 8-9 @ www.BibleGateway.org
& much is well explained at www.practicalprosperity.org.uk

God bless!

How much am I winning here?
1) Share with my brother and his family (my parents are well off, but I'd still give them something);
2) New Car;
3) Job I love instead of job I have;
4) Make my animal shelter a "No kill shelter" (enough financing will do that). |

well if it was me and I won a significant amount like lets so $20 million.
The first thing i would do is pay off all my bills. Then I would put trust funds and college funds away for my kids and my stepkids. I would give each of my brothers and My wife's family a share. enough to support them for a while.
With what was left I would invest a large portion. -move away from her and to someplace warm. travel and donate to good causes |

put it away, continue living my life as I do.
But I guess I would give away a little bit of it to either charity, or some family members in need. |

If i won the lottery i would tell my husband to end his contract and come back from Iraq because we won the lottery and he would not need to work there any longer. Then I would pay for my daughters college in full, and help my Mom pay her bills, help my brothers and sister out and donate some of the money to charity. |
