 BartendingBear says: Would I even bother to celebrate? Where would you put the money, given the current economic woes, which are getting darker not brighter. Remember that there are limits on the exportation of cash (can't hedge with Euros) and a massive gold or silver buy could cause a run-up in the market. I suppose international mutual funds are the best bet. Your thoughts? Move to Costa Rica and buy a coffee plantation! i told my son last night that from now on he might as well save up enough for a bar of gold and slowly but surely stockpile it and his reply to me was "so someone can come along and steal it" to which i replied, well hell find somewhere and bury the shit. that's what it is going to come to i'm afraid. to bad you can't eat gold. if i won though i think i would buy me a piece of shit house and a piece of shit newer car and just sit on the rest because it may take the rest to heat and cool the house, to drive to work and to eat. I bet people selling mattresses would be doing good now-a-days. I'd buy America! $200m would buy you a couple or more banks. Then you could get bailed out and invest that money in your banks. It still has me stuffed how all these experts can claim they didn't see it coming, all round the world (or on both sides, for Palin groupies). While I never play - this clip is to good to pass up. First thing I would do if I won is call Mr. Paulson and Mr. Bush and offer to donate the $200m to help the current economic situation. NOT! I would build new homeless shelters around the world cause we are going to need a hell of a lot more of them. I'd buy a mechanical bull... and beer for the rest.  I'd pay off my student loans and medical debt, and if anything was left over, I'd have a pizza delivered. It's my understanding that the American Lotteries don't pay out all the cash at once (an outrageous scam), is that right? So, if you won you may get your first installment but I don't think the rest of it would be guaranteed in this fiscal climate. However, I want to play too: so what would I do with the cash? I guess I'd get back to the Isles, secure some land (that would be - theoretically - safe from global warming flooding) and set about trying to make myself and my family self-sufficient (food and energy wise). Obviously I'd employ people to do the digging.  I'd spend my time in worthy pursuits like resisting the urge to buy into the gentry; not allowing folk to tug their forelock... Forgot to ask, what would you do with all that wonga, B-Bear? Our Euromillions jackpot is 130 million tonight. If you're not in - you can't win as we say here in Ireland. I'm in!! If I win, I'll get my army of dedicated supermen to capture all those bad guys responsible for the crash in America, take everything away from them and give the bounty to the foreclosed homeowners, pensioners - wait - I now need to hire staff to make a list of all the victims...On second thoughts, I'd buy everyone on CM a pizza carrerinyes -- I will settle for a case of O'HARA'S CELTIC STOUT and toss in the pizza if you feel like it. What good would pizza be without the beer? Or stout? Consider it done!! |
