What would you do if you won the lottery?

[enyawd72]

If you had the money to do whatever you wish what would it be?

I would do something totally crazy that I fantasized about since I was a kid.

I'd build a house that looks like Castle Grayskull. Yep, that's my dream house. Spiral staircase up to the tower, secret passages, the whole nine yards.

After I pay off the bills and before they find me dead on a toilet of multiple excesses i'd buy all my Museum buddies a nice present.

I've always loved giving but unfortunately I never had anything to give

Depending on the amount won, first things first, family and friends would be financially set for the remainder of their natural lives (provided they wished to be, mind you). Second, lots of traveling. There are lots of places in this big world that I would love to see in person and having a good sized lottery jackpot would hopefully allow some bucket list trips to be made. I'd get my own publishing house up and running so I could start publishing more nostalgic comics using writers, artists and materials from the days of yore (and some modern writers and artists, as well). I'd also set up a fund to take care of folks who are homeless and people who are the victims of crime to try and help them out as much as possible (again, provided that they were receptive to the aid; wouldn't want to force anything on anyone). Finally, I'd set up a fund to help care for abandoned and abused animals. Humans committing violence and neglect on other humans is bad enough, but when that violence and neglect extends to creatures who are, at their basic core, innocent, and whose love is unconditional, it really gets me riled up, so I'd make sure there was a fund large enough to take care of critters of all shapes and sizes that have been victims of abuse or neglect.

Take care of family and closest friends first, then build a custom home where access to the collector room is through a sliding bookcase.

Depends on the winnings. One million or two, maybe get a bigger house. Hook up sis and mom, that's it.

But 10 million and up...

Buy me a warehouse...convert it to an awesome living pad (I love open space concepts)...call it a mancave on steroids...



Would have to have a huge adjacent garage...where all kinds of American muscle and classic cars would be parked next to each other...



Have my own THX home theater...with bar...and popcorn maker stand. Decorate it with all kinds of original classic movie posters...



I already mentioned my sis and mom, that's a given.

Sorry, but I could give to F's about my extended family...I'd give them jack shlat. I only have two close best friends, no cash though, probably a paid vacation trip of their choice...or a car, but no money, okay, vacation money.

Some skin removal surgery...

Probably a vacation home in the Big Island of Hawaii as well, the Kona side (rains too much in Hilo).

I'd book a first class flight to Tokyo...that's THE city I wanna visit the most.

Finally, give large donations to my three favorite charities, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the World Wildlife Foundation, and the Milo Foundation (a local animal shelter).

Oh, and I go crazy with more toys and collectibles...

...and a few other things, but this is a family friendly site...

That about covers it...

[thunderbolt]

quit my job and get a nice big house in rural central Georgia or near Asheville. Start up a dog rescue maybe. Invest enough to live off of and not be all wino rich with gold toilets and such. Couple indulgences would be a solid box Batman and Robin and some mib 64 GI Joe stuff.

[enyawd72]

That last photo of yours kills me Hector! That's how you know you have too much money...when you have two little TVs on either side of your GIANT TV...LOL

[daz71]

buy a big house have one room retro futuristic with ball chairs etc.a psychedelic room.a a victorian style library with weird/horror style stuff like peter cushing had in the skull.a room with a big pentagram on the floor like in the devil rides out and a wicker man and maze in the garden.

[PNGwynne]

House. Marriage. Travel. Personal trainer. Gifts to my parents and modest trusts for my niece and nephew. Toys--but not as many as one might suppose. More books, including some rarities. I don't have very big dreams, I'd just like to be a little more comfortable and secure.

Now, if they work out that thing were you can place your mind in another body, I'm in. lol.

[PNGwynne]

...before they find me dead on a toilet of multiple excesses...

Mikey, I love you. I wouldn't enjoy this place half as much without your candor.

[Marvelmania]

Nothing too outlandish except travel. You see too many who win even super large amounts with nothing to show for it after just a few years.

[palitoy]

Pay off home. Open an antique mall close to my home, drive around in an RV and buy stuff for said mall.

[newlyknighted]

Build the Hall Of Justice. Live in it. Wait for the trouble alert.

[Hedji]

Easy. I would get a new car.

1) Quit my job and buy a huge house (w/ a maid of course) w/ separate rooms for my action figures, 18 inch dolls, and other various collectibles like Star Trek, Michael Jackson, Shaun Cassidy, games and comics, etc.

2) Give back to my community. Maybe an after school center for low income families.

3) Establish a college fund for my grandniece.
