Yes, in Montana or Colorado for me. Big log cabin style house, big front porch with ceiling fans.

Nothing too big though, something modest like this

Unbelievable.

Just saw a new Kia EV6 in the "wild" and parked so I could give it a good look.....I think that would be my first purchase!

Default What are you going to do with your lottery jackpot winnings?

Get a Lawyer, Accountant/Financial Advisor. Set up a trust/ estate to handle all legalities.
Buy a different house on some land not too remote but far enough out of town .
Be able to do something worthwhile with my time and energy, help other people in life that need a hand up.
Travel and pursue interests at my leisure and pace.
Unfortunately it would probably cause division with somefamily and friends if they knew the situation.

They would be fortunate to get a text from me two weeks after I stopped showing up.

One person won the $1.28 B jackpot. Bought ticket at a gas station in Des Plaines, outside Chicago.

Hopefully it's an AGF member and they can post on how they'll spend their winnings.
