First would you have taken the 20 year annuity or the $160 million up front?
And then what would you do with that kind of loot?

It was actually $111 million up front which equals $166M canadian, damn that is alot of money.....
First thing I would do is donate $10Million to the "Children's wish foundation", then I would help out family and friends, then purchase a Vector!

:hail :hail :hailActually it was $160 million before taxes and $111 million after taxes. I'm not sure why they tax lottery winnings in the U.S. since it isn't income.
which is roughly half your income per year, anthony...!!!
:hail :canada1 shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...........
I would take the lump sum.
Give half to my mother, without her I am Nothing.
Give some to charities to help children.
Relax, play golf and travel.
Organize a "posse"
And last but not least, :toast: :drinky: :weed: :Yep: :SIB

Actually just to be a real asshole I would go on tv like most of the other annoying winners and tell the reporter that this shitload of money isn't going to change me and thus I'm keeping my dead end job because "I enjoy it too much."
or one could buy a strip joint, renovate the crap out of it, and get the best looking women working there, have MeesterMike run the place and call it MADJACKS STRIP HOUSE!!!
BTW, madjack members get their 1st lap dance for free

pay off my mortgage, my m-in-law's mortgage, my brother's mortgage, and my dad's mortgage, pay off my church's debt, set myself up for life with around 100 million, quit work, have my wife quit work, contribute several million to the mission in Haiti that I work with, and lastly, establish some sort of philanthropist organization that my wife and I would have full control of.
I think I'd probably stay in my house, I like it, and I like Bowling Green. I'm sure I would take about 10 hunting trips abroad each year and let my wife do whatever it is women like to do that have an abundance of money. I would also buy a bunch of real estate for hunting and fishing in this area and maybe 20 sections in Alberta and Saskatchewan.
I would not buy a plane, buy a car over 50K, or go to Disney world.

I would pay off any loans or anything my mom and sister have, and give them a bunch of cash as well as set up trust funds for my nephews, and help out some of my not-so-well off relatives. But after that, it's good times to be had. I'd build a house in Las Vegas and a vacation spot in the Black Hills, buy a Bentley and an Escalade and set up my buddies from college to have about a two-week, be-all, end-all blowout that we could ever have in Las Vegas.
I figure if you have that money, have some fun. I mean, $100 million? Take like $4 million and set it aside in savings accounts. Even if you get stupid (like I probably would) and blow the rest of it, if you can't live off $4 million, you have some problems.

First thing I would do?
Hire some poor deadbeat to wipe my ass for me with $50 bills on national TV.
Why?
Because with $100+ million, I can.
After that?
Lay C-notes all over my bed, roll around in it, jack off on it, roll around in it some more
Why?
Just to make sure its real and not some dream.
After that?
Just do whatever the heck I feel like. Wanna fly to australia this weekend???? lets go!
For an appropriate amount of groveling and begging I may even give some to close relatives.
Then I might set up a "Fun Index" allowing people to invest in me. The stock would go up and down much like the Dow Jones except the flucuations would be based on how much fun I had that day. I had a fun day? People get money. Shitty day? Sorry you broke bastards!
I don't know about that Marine, damn, rolling over on your own whitewash? YUCKmarine said:

I usually never listen to the winners during their news conference.but I happened to tune in ti the guy from W.Va who won $111 million(after taxes) and I was impressed by him an awful lot.seems like a very sincere and generous man who will do a lot of good.didn't hear a lot of materialistic crap like some of these guys on this forum.
Sure glad they didn't win

1. Family first. Father, mother, sister, newphew. Set up my twins future equities.
2. Take care of a couple of fellas that I grew up with and some people at work who took care of me when I was down on my luck.
3. Donate to a few charities (this time the pocket change would make a big difference).
4. Give 25% of it to my ex before she sues me for half.
5. Emperor's Package at Caesar's Palace. Always wanted one of those private gambling rooms. Sipping on grandma shots, betting 20K a hand, while some gorgeous chick's topping me off underneath the table.
6. Change my name to Domingo Valazquez.
