Seen a live news feed and they were interviewing a black dude and said on the air he would buy prostitutes and coke. The chick doing the interview turned ghost white. I laughed so hard almost spilled my beer. At least he was honest. Myself I would ice fish year around ;D

If I won it this time of year, a new truck and a couple ice castles, a big @$$ large one all decked out and a smaller more mobile one, 12-14ft, for lake hopping. I wouldn't quit my job right away, but I'd take the next 4-6 weeks off, paid or unpaid, and ice fish.  I'd spend my down time in the house planning my early retirement.  This is why I probably wouldn't take the cash option, I'm still young enough and its much easier to blow it all when you get it up front.

I would rush to get a Wilcraft.

Thin ice would no longer be a worry.     ;)2

Set up trust funds for my kids and future grand kids, pay off my family's bills and new vehicles for all of them, buy three properties that are local to me that I want, buy some land in Maine, Montana, Wyoming, or Alaska, the hay burners that my wife and kids want, some more man toys, have at least one of my own private stocked lakes, and go hunting and fishing anytime and anywhere I wanted.

would do 1 time gift to relatives of paying off their mortgage/car loan. Would be in a trust.  I would then get aluminum siding a new subfloor at the cabin. I would purchase some prime deer hunting land to manage with a cabin on it. Perhaps get a new ranch style house with a pole barn with heated shop portion.  Still work at least part time.

Take care of my family, spend a lot of it on property near water.

There was one 1 million dollar winner in our county of PA on Saturday night and the young woman in charge of collecting money and buying the tickets for our group here at work isn't at work today. Said she was going out of town suddenly. I hope she is just trying to figure out what to do with that winning ticket today. :) And not just taking a sick day/vacation day.

One million minus taxes of about 50% equals 500,000. 500 k divided among about 50 people would be 10 k. That would come in handy too.

first thing i would do is hire someone to manage the money as it is the most difficult part of being wealthy?second i would remember the poor who subsidize the bulk of the lottery earnings.third i would care for widows and orphans,i also would support our JEWISH brothers and sisters enabling them to come to MESSIAH! weird story  i was drivin home from work years ago the lotto sign said 52 million i thought in my head LORD if i win that jackpot i would tithe 10% of the 52 million an audible voice?in the back seat of my car said "ARE YOU TITHING NOW" no one back there? to which i immediately called my wife to ask why we werent tithing,she said she didnt know so we started and never looked back to this day GOD has never not provided our daily bread,and fishes too! i never played the lottery again well till saturday :-[
GOD BLESS
