    Honestly, I'd have a remote home in the CO mountains and a home on the beach somewhere remote. Remote is the key word.

    And with half a billion, I don't think it would be a problem to set up my immediate family and those that are very close to me with a nice nest egg. Those that come a calling get 86'ed immediately.

    Read the long post. What I got from that is that I can be COMPLETELY financially irresponsible for near 20 years on only single digit billions and then declare bankruptcy with only hundreds of dollars of assets to my name. That's about where I was this time two years ago, and living quite comfortably. Not a bad shake.

    If I happen to win with my one ticket....

    The trading post will be "sold out" for the first time in history.

    If I win, I will buy every good-standing member of ar-15.com a 1000 round case of ammo of their choice.

    I had a $10 bill in my wallet when i was filling up, so said wtf? and bought 5 powerball tickets. I picked the numbers on the first one and then just did QP for the rest. I figure if it's my turn, I'll win. I just wanted to be in the game for $500 million. I'll never miss the $10 (hopefully).
