What would you do if you won the current powerball jackpot (lottery)!!

Besides pay some (or all) of your bills!

I would retire and hire someone to manage my money and then travel, travel, travel, and then when I got tired of this, I would do more travelling.

Buy a cruise liner and live permanently on it, travelling the world, eating and drinking the best stuff and visiting exotic places all year round (so says Firey).

New Porsche for those times when we disembark.

Maybe an aircraft too (I love to fly). A Twin would be good enough. So we could just go visiting.

[Zero G]

I'd do a wine tour of the world. I wouldn't want to miss out on any good stuff.

[vw56german]

I would buy a new computer

Actually I would move to the Phillipines, buy a resort, and build affordable housing for people. Why? You might ask, because I love the food, the culture, and we would not have Almond Joy candy bars with out them.

It certainly wasn't me. The dream was alive until I checked our tickets. 80 million to one is better than 80 million to none.

Yeah i live like twenty minutes from Lincoln. To bad it wasn't me. That would be cool if i would have know the people. Made the news for a week around here. Its too bad that so many people won though on that ticket. each person got only about 15 million out of 365 million. Dam taxes.

LINCOLN, Neb. -- The eight meat processing plant workers who shared the record Powerball jackpot are now officially multimillionaires.

Lincoln attorney Jim Hoppe said their winnings from the $365 million lottery were wired into their personal bank accounts late on Wednesday afternoon. He said three of the eight were still working at the ConAgra ham processing plant, but he didn't say which three.

All eight took the cash option, and after taxes each received $15.5 million.

The money was wired on Wednesday from the multistate lottery's Des Moines, Iowa, office to the Nebraska Lottery office, then to the trust account of Hoppe's law firm.

Can't believe 3 of them are still working. Company must have brainwashed them.
