What would you do if you won some sort of lottery and your prize was a cool million after taxes? Ide buy a pretty groovy bar somewhere warm and just relax on a beach for the rest of my natural life.

After paying off all debts and the house, I would put the rest in the bank in an account that drew the highest interest. You could live off the interest, comfortably. That way, by using only what is needed, I would always have it, as it would never run short.

I echo Larry's words..... Even though I'd probably also give a bit to a few people I know....

I would pay for everyones drinks that night.
then sell my car and buy one i like (and pay it off)
buy a house and make a large downpayment. like half the cost.
then put half into an intrest drawing acount and the rest into mutual funds. then go to school to get an even better job.

A pet money? Whats that? Hmm, I want one, but if I had a million dollars, I would keep it all to myself, buy a car, house, and a HUGE I MEAN VERY VERY LARGE, entertainments system!! Oh yeah!! Well I would buy all that plus give some to people. (I was joking about the keeping it to myself thing.) Oh well, I would be filfy rich. (well compared to most people) So I would do that. Who wants to be a millionare?
