Add on to the bunker.

Thanks for the idea RoeDapple.
I would remodel my moms basement too.

Bribe LJWorld to free the blogs.

I would bribe people to read my latest blog, Name That Baby. Hey, you could afford a lot of children with that kind of money, I mean to say, you could adopt a whole village of kids from the Congo.

Basically, I'm just going to walk the earth.
I will be known as the Kung Fu Dough Boy
...and I will Kill Bills all over the planet.

Take my family and friends for a game of bowling.
Then I would privately fund the Kansas Children's Initiative.
Phoghorn 5 months, 3 weeks ago
I would put my trousers on one leg at a time.

Might get a paste factory & a new pair of scissors for merrill, maybe a lifetime supply of lead for RoeDapple, although half a billion only goes so far...

I sure as hell wouldn't be here making lame comments.
I'd buy a round of biscuits and gravy for everyone
RETICENT_IRREVERENT 5 months, 3 weeks ago
I won the lottery 27 years ago when I met the spousal unit.
Just sayin.

How can you all sit there reading this when Lindsay Lohan got arrested again?! Free Lindsay!

I would act like I am better than everyone. Buy more stuff especially shiney stuff. I would buy new shocks too but brag about how mine are better than yours.

Disappear.

Probably have a heart attack and die.

I would pay off student loans, pay off my mortgage and then donate the house, buy a house in the country, buy a new truck for the hubby, a vacation condo in the Colorado mountains... and set up some money to pay for my kids' (and future grandkids) schooling and a scholarship fund for all my nieces and nephews. AND take a vacation somewhere or two! and retire to do things that I want to do.

Put it all on black. :)
Seriously, I'd travel for a couple of years, then probably get heavily involved in Habitat for Humanity. $125 million (lump sum after taxes) would buy a lot of housing for folks.

give it all to the city of lawrence and usd497 so i could see how quick they could blow it
grammaddy 5 months, 3 weeks ago
New houses and cars for the kids and college funds for the grands.Donate a boatload to USD 497 for books and other learning materials or raises for the teachers, NOT the sports facilities.

There are definitely some people that I would like to buy and set on fire. Wait, can I do that? Ahhh, with that much money, you can just about do anything you want.

I'd start here and fill as many requests as possible. http://www.donorschoose.org/
