The Gov gets some so you get $900,000,000 now what are you going to do with it?
I would disappear... Change my name, address and email. 🌴🤗

Well, that's for sure!!! I definitely would buy someplace in SXM, nothing real elaborate, that I couldn't stand to lose to a hurricane. Other than that, make some good investments...

Set up a perpetual care fund for a local no-kill animal shelter. Never fly commercial again.
I'm going where the weather suits my clothes.

Good luck, Carol. With $1.6B, even after taxes, you could invite all of us for a party.
We always play the same #'s on Powerball - afraid that if we don't that's the one drawing when we would've won.

Best wishes to you too!! We basically never play it. I picked numbers for one ticket and then did an easy pick for the other. Yeah, that would be some party!

I'll stick with the cliched answer--I'd spend most of it on wine, women and song. The rest I'd waste.

Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but we didn't even win enough to cover our expense of the tickets!  Oh well, back to work..

Tonight's Powerball is a piddling $620M. I guess we could get by on that.
