    Okay, no, I did not win the lottery unfortunately, but I am just curious what you would do when you have win that amount. I think the amount is not enough to quit your daily job because it's not enough. But what will you do with that amount? Starting a business? investing in stocks? buy a beach house in the caribbean renovate it and put it for rent?

    Just curious what you would do.. I think i will buy a nice beach house in the caribbean on a good location and renovate a bit and put it for rent. Caribbean and the beach is my passion, so i think this would be my logical choise.

    Well I live in a town house right now so I would look for something thats atleast desent, and that would probablly cover all the money.

    I'd buy a holiday home, somewhere peaceful to retreat that has a nice view. And I'd get a huge stereo system that you can hear from 50 miles away.

    I'd take a year off, buy a house, and spend some true quality time with my family.

    I think I would use it to pay the bills, but I would need more than half!
