on early sunday morning
honey honey wake up
i just won the lottery
dreamyeyed she looked at me and smiled
then went back to sleep
never registered with her what i said and
that it was april fools day
i like 100 million of americans bought a lottery ticket for
this weekends mega million drawing
the odds of winning was the same as me creating earth
but i did it anyway
then i dreamed of what i would do with the money
did you do that too
you did didnt you
lets see as we are almost totally debt free and only owe a small
amount on a car that has 0% interest wouldnt even pay that off
would fix that fence of mine that i have been putting off fixing
and yes i would pay someone to finish it
thats worth the money
wonder if i would be lke those other people who won and just
squander it off on all kind of things and then die broke
dont think i would do that
heres what i would do if i won 200 million
gosh thats one good baseball player and
its lebron and dwyane (he spells his name wrong) together
thats 20% of a sports franchise
first i would sit down and write a big check to uncle sam
i know hes going to get a big chunk anyway so would want
to get that out of the way
dont want him messing with me
then i would take 50% of whats left and invest it similarly to
what i have my iras etc invested in now and live off what it
produces
if you cant live off 4-5 million a year then just forget about it
then i would take the other 50% and place it in a foundation
to try to do some good in this world
i might even fund the womens health clinics in the state of texas
since we cannt seem to do that now
and yes they would give out free contraceptives
those institutions and charities that have been good to me over the
years would get the bulk of the funding
i might even be like warren and bill and just give it all away to the
foundation
sorry kids
well i would let my wife she have some of it
she after all deserves it
what would you do if you won
i know you have thought about it
cuz
100 million of us did buy a ticket
BASKETBALL
its kansas against kentucky
k2
2 blue teams that have been there before
thank you kansas as you are the only final four team i picked
kentucky is all one and done ers
this should be a good one
the womens
well we know brittney and her group will win
shes not fair
its like a junior high team playing a good high school team
takes all the fun out of it unless she dunks it again

I actually bought 3 tickets....increased odds and all! ;)
ReplyDeletePay off bills and medical expenses. Oh to be debt free! Set up college funds for my girls and our friends. Make sure my family was taken care of...why not share the debt free joy?! Send my parents on a fabulous trip to Ireland.
Then I have a dream of buying an apartment complex and turning it into a safe haven for battered / single women and their children. With on site day care, job and legal assistance, continuing education, etc. Create a Community to raise up these families. Someday....
Hope you're having a great day!

I will admit my husband, and my aunt both bought tickets. We always dream of our future. I know we will make our 100,000 a year by working my business hard for the year and still working it hard for the next 5 years we will be able to semi retire. I have a dream board of all the places we'll go and what we'll do. I want to pay off all our debt, buy a house, travel, buy 2 reliable cars, go back to school for photography, buy more and better equipment, have a farm with horses, and a great dane. we'll also have the money to send Tala to school and whatever college she wants to go to. I will also donate to local charities, and foster/adopt a family and give them a second chance. I will also volunteer to help in third world countries.
