USA Mega Millions at 640 MILLION What would you do with it??


So in about a hour the numbers will be drawn and this is the highest the jackpot has ever been and everyone I know has boughten tickets. And I have decided I hate whoever wins haha.

SO my question is what would you do with 640 million dollars...

The only thing I can for sure think of is getting a house, and getting IVF as many times until I am pregnant, and of course what ever friends and family need.

before I start I'd like to say good luck on getting your BFP this cycle

and I would give my parents, brothers, and sister a couple million a piece so they can take care of themselves.. then I'd buy a piece of land somewhere in a very remote place and have a 2,500 sq ft + bomb shelter built underground with 5-10 years worth of food that lasts a long time and have it stocked every year with new food.

I'd do some MAJOR prepping! then the rest I'd donate to charities, invest in stocks (to make more money) and so on and so forth.

Gosh, I have no idea.

We bought 10 tickets for $10 and didn't win. 3 people got the numbers last night though.

We obv couldn't play in the UK,but I think one of the biggest jackpots here was about £47 million...


With that,and dean always laughs at me for this,the first thing I would do is go to Asda and do a massive shop,not having to think about what I'm spending

I would get rid of our mortgage, buy a second home on Lake George, buy a new car, spend at least 2 weeks in England, set aside money for my children's college tuition, give money to animal shelters and maybe start up my own shelter. Then just put the rest away.

There is no way I could keep all that for myself! I would give money to all my family and friends, and donate to quite a few charities. I'd definitely buy my own home and car, but I wouldn't quit work cause I love my job and the people I work with. I'd love to open a free arts school that had the ability to offer credited qualifications for students. I'd also like to fund a centre for animals. Could do with a new wardrobe too

I'd buy a nice house in the UK (also do a huge food shop ), somewhere abroad for holidays, get a good car, put some aside for LO, donate 100m to cancer research, give each family member 1m, set up a couple of businesses then give away what's left over.

It's a stupid amount of money tbh...
