So what would you do with your 435 million dollars?

JD Barleycorn's Avatar
The Powerball is $700 million which is about $435 million after taxes. So do you just disappear? Have a huge party? I think I've decided to have a Star Wars party, a all nude Star Wars party with some of the local providers including Jaycee Rivers. I'll have to have some of the seats removed, cushions installed, and the thermostat turned up. Depending on what people want we may even show the original Star Wars movies in order.


There is still the original dream. A huge house in the middle of nowhere. Import some famous talent, invite (as guests) some local providers and a few recognizable icons. All to be delivered by blacked out limousine with all cell phones turned in. No cameras, no gps, the only thing you can take away is your memories.

I would go Sheen style too, minus the *Staff Edit - JCM.
Buy a nice place in my fav state Colorado, and try to lock down a couple of my fav porn stars for a few years.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Wait awhile for the hubbub to settle down and then set up a trust to claim the money to maintain anonymity. Knew someone who had an article about them in the paper of how he went from rags to riches. The requests from people for money was constant and unrelenting.

Most people can't handle that sum of money and it will ruin their lives. I would like to win, but I know that I will probably be much happier without it. Knowing the person who wins would be an experience that I'd like to have. Just to see how it changes them.

Estimate is $800 million which would be $496 cash lump sum instead of annuity. 25% Federal tax and then you pay state taxes after that. In MO you'd get about $352 million in KS $347 million.

I would buy my own private island and start my own country. Then convince the US that it is of strategic value to them and get them to provide me with millions in aid.

Federal tax rate would be 39.6%. So the winner would have to come up with additional tax when filing their income tax return.

The first thing I would after winning, is throw out all my socks and underwear and buy new that have no holes in them.
I would certainly attend JD's star wars party.

Otherwise the first thing I would do is hire a good tax attorney and a good stock broker.

Collect a couple of my favorite clients and become a sugar momma. I think it would be fun to turn the tables and make them feel as amazing as they often make me feel.
Paid off the college bills, get a "nice" place to live, take are of my family, get a good lawyer and tax guy. Then find someone who know how to take care of that much money to take care of it.






Oh and maybe find someone to keep my happy ass out of trouble too.

I'd get the most pleasure by helping out my family and close friends.

Also, I'd invite a certain escort (she knows who she is) and my 3 favorite sugar babies to move into my new mansion. I'd find out what Paris (aka PureParis23) charges for a year, and pay whatever it is. Shit, who am I kidding ... I'd retain the 10 best sugar babies on SA, have a harem in my mansion, and spend my days fucking. I like exotic cars, so I'd add to my collection.

Finally, I'd share it with my ex-wife and make sure the rest of her life was gravy.

I would buy my company so I could fire my boss and a few co-workers!

Then I would have the party discussed above except I wouldn't be watching movies.
