DRIFTER_016 Posted June 8, 2016 Report Posted June 8, 2016 I forgot to mention that my first stop after picking up my winnin's would be the nearest Porsche dealership.
jimmer Posted June 8, 2016 Report Posted June 8, 2016 Quit my job, donate back to the charity I work for, help some family and friends, then take off on a world tour (mostly fishing of course). Once that's all done I would move to a more remote lake and buy a place down south for the winter.
glen Posted June 8, 2016 Report Posted June 8, 2016 I put gold in the money pit just so they would keep digging.
JoshS Posted June 8, 2016 Report Posted June 8, 2016 I'd buy properties on Georgian Bay, LOTW, maybe something with boat parking close to st clair, something by the larry and a villa down south with fantastic marlin, tarpon, and whatever else bites down there fishing. Maybe purchase that really expensive ranger or two amongst a few other toys. I'd learn how to invest like a pro and spend a ton of hours on the water!
manitoubass2 Posted June 8, 2016 Report Posted June 8, 2016 Id buy a nice place on rainy lake and another on LOTWs. 2 new boats, a few side by sides, two new trucks and thats about it. A nice vacation once or twice a year and set the kids up good. Id have alot of toys but not much would change
2 tone z71 Posted June 8, 2016 Report Posted June 8, 2016 Pay off all family's debt...some close friends as well,buy a few get aways on different lakes,build a dream home with a shop with enough equipment I could do whatever I want in it ,,fish fish ,travel
kickingfrog Posted June 8, 2016 Report Posted June 8, 2016 I forgot to mention that my first stop after picking up my winnin's would be the nearest Porsche dealership. So 1500km to Edmonton?
lew Posted June 8, 2016 Report Posted June 8, 2016 My wife & I will be celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary this coming October, we were blessed with 2 wonderful kids, we're both retired & live a fantastic life in the country and my wife kicked cancer in the azz last year. Money is just fluff, I've already won the lottery many times over.
DRIFTER_016 Posted June 8, 2016 Report Posted June 8, 2016 So 1500km to Edmonton? Nope, you pick up your cheque in Toronto!! So, 5,500 kms to YYZ!!!
Dara Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 Really not much would change for me. I'm 5 years from retiring and likely would right away Kids have it made right now. Both have careers and school they love so that would just go on. I doubt I would move unless it was the 60 mil but charity would get most anyway. Maybe build a windmill in Kathleen's back yard Just a bit more fishing and a bit of travel Life is pretty good as it is now
DRIFTER_016 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 Maybe build a windmill in Kathleen's back yard With 50,000 whistles taped to the blades!!!!
crappieperchhunter Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 Money is just fluff, I've already won the lottery many times over. Pretty much how I feel Lew. The family would be taken care of. That would be my only priority. After that except for more travel, I don't really think much would change.

jimmer Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 I agree money is just fluff, but I need more fluff to retire comfortably.
glen Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 Money is important when you don't have any. I would help the young people.
Dara Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 With 50,000 whistles taped to the blades!!!! I love it...yes..most definetly and a couple things that go Thump too
manitoubass2 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 25,000 dog whistles, 25,000 regular whistles
AKRISONER Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 im pretty happy as it is and im young...rather than buying properties, id probably just get time shares in a few places. id get a time share for skiing in revelstoke and whistler and then buy a cottage/house nothing too outlandish with road access in pointe au baril to call home. Since you cant be two places at once, id just rent spots down south on surf breaks whenever i felt like it. invest a ton, pay for my future kid's educations. Buy myself a very nice car and a very nice pick up truck to pull my brand new alumacraft fully loaded. Finally id drop 100 grand on the full exclusive private package at mark Wiegel heli ski...110 grand gets you a week for you and 11 other people to chopper around blue river BC in some of the best skiing in the world all inclusive. oh and id buy myself a nice lil sled and a nice ATV so...ive spent about 1.5 million...jeez i dont even need to hit the jackpot, i just gotta hit encore
