Goofier things have happened one supposes.

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.
