Okay, who is fantasizing about the $700 million right now?

[joeybee12]

I am.

[chillfactor]

1. I would love to win enough money...

to buy a good used vehicle since I live in the mountains and am pretty isolated....my van died.

[oasis]

3. Good luck!

[SaschaHM]

2. I'm just hoping nobody wins so that when I play on Saturday the jackpot will be around 1bil.

We're at the point where the vastness of the prize just inspires more people to play which will increase the jackpot.

[oasis]

7. If there are at least 50 winners splitting the 1 bil. jackpot., okay

Otherwise, I'd like mine today.

4. We didn't buy a lottery ticket this time, but for the last really big jackpot we did.

I had the most fun mentally spending my money.

$1 million to each of my siblings/sister-in-law
$1 million to each of my nieces and nephews (12 in all!)
$1 million to each of my cousins
$1 million to my church
$1 million to area charities
$10 million to the school district specifically to raise teachers' pay
$1 million to my best friend

Etc.

I had a whole mental list.

8. I like the teachers pay idea n/t

5. I fantasize about the people and organizations I could help

Since I'm used to living on less than $30K, I could live like a queen on $100K a year. That leaves a lot of money to give away.

6. I bought my ticket, but I have a weird feeling

It would be kind of depressing to win.

I spent my whole life saving and I am now at the point where I can retire whenever I want to and spend more than I've ever spent. If I won the 433 million, it would make all my work saving money my whole life worthless pocket change.

I guess that's how it is for people who save their whole life and then have a heart attack the month after they retire. Kind of weird.

19. Similar situation here

I was thinking it would be a big hassle to win, I would have to disappear since I can't claim it anonymously. My life would be forever changed. People would be coming out of the woodwork with their hands out.

But then I thought I could really do some good with the money.
A Democratic PAC in select red states was one thought. A trust to provide grants/incentives for builders to build affordable housing was another. Lots more things out there.

[Yupster]

25. Well I dodged a bullet there

Didn't win a thing.

Happy for the woman who won.

[Yonnie3]

26. Yup, Yupster, same here.

I helped the winner and the Commonwealth of Virginia to the tune of $8.

What a relief!

[Luciferous]

9. Me. I would like a nice little beach house :)

[JimGinPA]

10. Last Night I Made A Mental List...

Of who I was gonna buy houses for, who I'd buy cars for & who I'd make millionaires.

[sandensea]

11. Forget it; it's rigged.

Then again, that hasn't stopped me from buying tickets from time to time - so, go for it!

[pangaia]

12. I 'won' $4.

That's it for me.

[Yonnie3]

13. I could finance all the things they say Soros does! n/t

[MLAA]

15. Perfect

On the local news folks buying tickets were asked what they would do with their winnings. They responded with the usual, travel, help my family etc. I said to my husband damn, I with they would have asked me, I would have said 'kick enough fucking republicans out in 2018 so we can impeach the white supremacist squatting in the White House'. 😬

[malaise]

16. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Rooting for you

[LuckyLib]

20. That's my plan!! A clean sweep of Repugs running in every state!

[Blue_true]

14. Give a big piece to early childhood education.

Set up a trust fund for my extended family. I am single and my needs are pretty simple and I meet them now.

[roamer65]

17. I'd chase solar eclipses around the world from now until I can't do it anymore.

[tammywammy]

18. I went to my regular gas station

The guy said "ohhhhh" when I said I wanted lotto tickets since I never buy them. He said "at least you can dream" for an hour. At least if I win they'll win.

[Texasgal]

21. I bought ONE ticket.

Not really excited but who knows?

[TexasBushwhacker]

22. Numbers here

http://www.powerball.com

No winner for me.

[ecstatic]

23. When is the drawing? Nt

[joeybee12]

24. My only consolation is that it's a blue state

Unfortunately undeserving trumpanzees live in blue states also.
