If I won, figuring 50% goes to taxes right away. I would split it 50-50 with my daughter, set myself up a good savings amount, retire from my job, travel a bit, take up photography more seriously, buy a few toys and family members would no longer have to worry about house payments or education expenses.
I would also like to set up an educational foundation of some sort, but first a nice vacation would be in order.

plenty for me. You ever see who spends all their money in casinos and lottery, mostly people that are dirt poor. It's mostly a tax on SS
income, just look who wastes their money on it.
