The Oatmeal Butterscotch paired with a Snickerdoodle
turned my cynical penis into a happy vagina
Then after an Oatmeal Cranberry and Double Chocolate,
it made my new vagina spontaneously sing the Trolololo Song in an elevator.

I'll be winning it on Friday...

Here are my plans after I win.

Buy myself a 4 story 5 bedroom house w/ a 5 car garage on 10 acres of land with a walled in backyard 2 acres in size, front yard will be 1 acre large.

Buy my brother a similar house where he lives.

Buy my mom and dad separate houses in Florida (they are divorced, but that's where all the family retired to)

Set up college funds for my 3 nephews and step daughter (even though I'm divorcing her mom)

Set up other funds in case I ever get married again and have kids of my own.

Start my own business or two..

Horde the rest and become part of the 1% and hate on the 99%!

DE's plans after winning:

1. Pay someone to scrub my presence from the net. Hopefully this includes the press release about my winning.
2. Refuse all media interviews.
3. Buy a mansion somewhere remote, with lots of property and a giant garage
4. Buy a crapload of guns
5. Huddle in my garage with my mountains of expensive sports cars and drink

actually I had thought of that DE I would hire a lawyer to deal with the media presence and if at all possible, I would have them register that I won the money with the lottery commission.

Basically I don't want people showing up at my door or calling me and asking for money, then getting all offended when I don't fork it over.

I just assume that I'm going to lose some friends if I ever win the lottery.

You're right, I am pretty awesome, I think any potential beggars live in fear of my greatness and my friends are too awed by my presence to even think of something so selfish for even one minute

So you wouldn't throw a million or 2 at close friends? If you take the lump sum it would be something like 436 million dollars and youw wouldn't share?

P.S. I would throw 3.7 million at this castle I think.

Correct, and the mega millions site clearly states that the lump sum amount is 360 million. 500 mil is only if you spread it out over time

lol.

People who say they'd still work after a multi-million dollar lotto win are retards.

Why on this green earth would you waste your limited time working, when you have the funds to literally do anything you want?

Are you really that uninspired, uncreative, unimaginative?

That is just too much money -- I prefer better odds on a lower payout. Thing is though when it gets this high the odds actually become fair, unless there are a bunch of winners.

Give about 3/4ths in taxes to the government when all is said and done, maybe more depending what Obama passes in his second term.
