Phoenix
I'd ensure one special woman has what she needs to get what she deserves, so she could truly be free.
I'd put away enough to take care of my daily needs and give away the rest.
So, applicants line up to the right, single file, and have your "Why you should give me your Powerball money" applications ready. 
As for participation in this industry-money doesn't motivate me, it's all about feel. So would I hobby more? Probably not.
I'd just tip better.
Maybe I would set up a supplementary fund, so all the $200 guys could see the 1K+ providers.
Cause everyone deserves to go to Disneyland at least once, after all.
Can't win if you don't play.

Run a freebie going away week to say goodbye and then run away to northern NM and buy lots of land and get lots of animals. Write a book and hope to get snowed in for a few months every winter Of course my good friends would be welcome any time
Hope everyone is doing great down there

First, I would take care of all my family's medical bills, open shelters up for people and animals, pay some senior citizens for long hours of community volunteer service who are barely squeaking by, and build some community centers for children so they can learn more about art and sport venues so they are kept off of the streets. If I still have money left over, I would finish my novels, write a screeplay and travel, travel, travel baby! Wink! I'd also join Roxanne in Australia and surf my ass off!
Hugs,
Ciara

more or less. {didnt win the power ball}. And even winning the big one will leave you with limitations {someone always has bigger toys}...but alot of whats been written has been done do a degree.....Personally....
1) "bought out" a christmas tree at one of the local malls each of the last 3 years. Basically go in on 22nd or 23rd and have toys are us or kaybee handle the leftovers (usually 100-200) so its ~ $5,000-7,500 {they give me stuff at cost}or so.
2) two trips a year where ever I want...
3) 4 months off a year
4) 1 or 2 "impulse" things (took my golf foursome to Torrey Pines on a lear 35 earlier this summer {no not my jet)...Took my wife to Buenos Aires for the weekend etc...
Total outlay ~$15,000 to $20,000 or so a year (bout same as my hobby budget).
"Living large" is more a state of mind then a bank statement {beyond a certain economic level}
