New home located in the middle of 80 acres. No close neighbors that way. Some new guns and a new vehicle. Then I would try to help some others in need.

50+/- acres with state land on at least 2 sides, custom-built log cabin and a cottage on the beach in NH. Just to start...

Pull $100,000 out for new car and a couple guns. Put the rest in the bank to draw interest for 10 years.

wow thats a lot of money too much for me really. I'd give a mil to my sisters family, a mil to my girlfriends family, and take 5 mil and put it in the bank. I'd become a lifetime NRA member. I'd buy a yugo sks with grenade launcher, a yugo m70 ak, a m1 garand, k98k mauser, a ruger hawkeye and a remington 700 (shoot I got 5 mil left why not), Bunch of ammo for all, a nice gun safe for the guns and important documents, buy a new family car, a house in a good school district with a nice chunk of land, some new clothes for the family. Basically buy some guns and a better place to live then spend it on practical stuff. I've come to realize I don't have a lot of stuff but what I do have makes me happy.

I'd buy a huntin' license, some of them newfangled long underwear, and some o' them fancy .22 lr. hollowpoints for my deer rifle! Then I'd get mama a new spool of thread so she could sew up that big tear in the seat of her overalls.

If I won the lottery, and I have thought abou this even though I seldom play. I would become a farmer. I would buy at least a 1 mile by 1 mile section, buy the tractors and other machinery I would need and become a farmer. Why you ask. Because it is the best tax shelter in the the United States. I would be a crop farmer, no livestock. This way planting and harvesting would be most time consuming and I would have time for myself the rest of the year. I could manage the farm ground in a way to promote wildlife and have ample hunting ground come fall. Of course 12 million would not all be needed for farming so I would invest the rest and have some added investment income. I would build a nice house but nothing too expensive. I would like to have a couple of pickups that I could use for different things. The wife could have what ever car she wants and life would be good!

I would have a small ranch with atleast 1000 acres. I would have a big Garage/Barn to put all my tools in and the tools I would buy. I would have a Big but not real big Brick home built and it would have a Gun/Game room to display my Guns in. I would buy a Black in color Ford F 150 4X4 reg,cab truck lifted with B.F. Goodrich all terrain tires for my ride. I would buy a very few more guns and live happly ever after...A.H

I asked an old farmer in Oklahoma a question like that one day, and he replied, "well, I reckon I'd just keep on a-farmin'...till it was all gone..."

My gun collection would get an Extreme make over. I would buy a new 4X4 truck and customize it. I would go on hunting trips and invite members of Gun and Game. I would take my wife on trips and buy here bigger Diamonds. Herbert would have a full time Butler. I would buy a small ranch ...A.H

I'd get some property, build me a nice house, a huge barn for the Quarter horses and Paint horse that I want, a huge garage for all the cars my husband wants, put some in the bank, and blow the rest on guns and ammo. Manda in Kent |

I'd pay off the mortgage and the car, set up a trust fund for my son, buy enough land someplace with civilized gun laws that I could set up a firing range so I could go shooting wherever I liked, get all the FFLs required so I could legally own full-auto weapons, and tell my wife after I had done all this that I was going on a long vacation and she was not invited. Maybe I'd be back, and maybe not. A lot would depend on whether she could get an attitude transplant; too much grief given to me and too little attention to me and my needs on her part for far too long. If that were ever to happen (fat chance - I have a better chance of being hit by lightning!), I would have a chance to pursue MY dreams. While that might be selfish of me, I'm tired of my needs and feelings and opinions having to take a back seat all the time. Everyone deserves a chance to be happy, and $12 million spread out over 25 years would be more than enough for me to see if I could find a little bit of happiness for myself. |
