Buy about 20 Acres in the Montana Rockies, 10 in Southern Bavaria. I'd build cozy, quaint homes on both pieces of land to raise kids, dogs, and horses. I'd buy a two to five year old King Air350 and put 10 Million into a mutual fund to cover operating expenses. I'd invest round about 30 Million to provide an annual income. I'd go on on golfing trips to Scottland, South Africa, Australia, Hawaii, and Mauritius. I'd put enought away in savings so that my Kids and Grandkids can have comfortable lives.

It only costs a dollar to play. A 20 oz soda costs more than a chance for all those riches.

I guess that's why they call it the "stupid people tax" or "redneck retirement fund".

At least with the 20 oz coke, you're getting fluid in your body. If you just want to hand out money, give me some. Maybe I'll give you some back.

Just keep working as a professional pilot until it's all gone.
