If I won the lottery

Serious question? If you won a 50 million dollar lottery what would you do with the money? I just spent two hours with a friend answering this very question.

Easy. I would buy an airplane and hire the best looking pilots I could find to fly me wherever I wanted to go on a moments notice!

I would start my aviation career without having to worry about money. Fly for fun!

I don't send out applications. I conduct interviews at EWR (complete with 4" heels and mini-skirt).

I would take a good chunk of the money and set up a few foundations for children who are ill, then I'd probably take the rest and happily disappear for awhile!

I think I'd look a little funny with the 4" heels since I'm 6'2" and as for the mini-skirt my, uh, um, "package" may have a problem in there too. But if they pay is good enough and I don't really have to work, why the hell not, right?

50 Million

If I won 50 Million I would not tell anyone and put the money safely in the bank. Perhaps I would buy a SR22 and a cabin on a lake and tell people that they are both rented.

I would pull out enough to pay for college. Then I would pay for my ratings. Then I would put the rest in the bank. Over time I would pull money out to buy a 55 Chevy Pickup and restore it, and a newer Chevy. I might also buy a boat, whether its a sailboat or a motorboat, I dont know. Then I would create a fund to encourage kids to go to either a college or a vocational school.

Whew.
