So What Will You Do When You Win the $500 Mega Millions Jackpot Friday?

Buy an island? Travel? So many decisions.

 

So what will you do with your $500 million?

Someone will win a record-setting Mega Millions jackpot -- if not on Friday, then an even bigger prize later.

It's easy to think of how you'd spend $1 million or so. But that much cash? Wow, so many decisions to make.

Would you move to another state? Another country? Or would you stay put in Northeast Ohio?

Of course, you'd give a lot away. What charities would get some big bucks?

Any vengeance plans, like buying the company you work for and firing the bosses?

What luxury items would be the first on your list?

If I won I would buy as many houses in Lakewood as my heart desired. I would buy every house that came up for sale in my neighborhood. I would renovate each of those houses to the highest standards, pay to redo the streets and sidewalks, install more attractive street lights, buy about 10 cars :) and then find some other positive things I could do with the money.

After seeing the sale of the Dodgers, my hopes of owning a sports franchise went out the window. That being said, I'd finish paying for my wedding, and maybe invest in an island as you mentioned above.

@Sonia - definitely call the police. It's a pretty common scam.

It's hard to say what I would do if and when I win. First and foremost I would hire a personal financial planner. Set myself up with a good money management plan. Then, do whatever I feel like, when I feel like it! I would certainly give some to local charity! Make sure you buy your ticket from a local business. They get 1% of the pot if the winning ticket is purchased at their business!!!

What if are sometimes hard to definite! My family would be taken care of first and foremost. I would not give up by real estate license because I know after time off I would want something to do and I love my career. Items on my bucket list would be next. I would never fly economy class again when visiting family in Switzerland and nor would they when visiting here. There is a difference!! I hear you have to buy a ticket so I guess my what if's will have to wait.

I would buy property away from a college town and leave Kent in a heart beat. I would pay off my children's homes and pay off my car and buy my sport car.

The rest and hydrate yourself before going in for a plasma donation. If you're sick or on medications, wait to donate. Once you're ready, call to make an appointment with the donation center closest to you. Thanks a lot.
