no one would EVER no i'd won. i'd live in the same house, drive the same car and definitely wouldn't want a single "new friend" that money brings (super model or not).
but the two things i WOULD absolutely do is..
1) make my husband leave from HP (which he can't do now because they suck and pulled the pensions of 20 yr. employees) so he can do whatever he wants. can't see myself ever being retired, i'd always want to be running some kind of business where i'd get to reek havoc with tools, under the guides of working.
2) but for sure i'd add, what i think would be the best job of all.... Secret Santa.
i spend i boat-load if i had to, just to keep my secret and my normal life
I'm not sure, but I think you have to go on record and give all your information out so the whole world can know who you are, so the lotteries aren't considered cheating and making this stuff up.
You'll have the local and national television crews camped out on your front lawn the day after you claim your ticket. It'll be all over local radio, in the papers and just a matter of time before people are walking on your pavement, falling down and suing you so you pay the claim, just to make it go away.
The thing to do is not make your claim until you have muddied the paper trail, so no one can find you.... really. Then do you good deeds from a safe port and live incognito the rest of your life.... or take the chance of being hounded by the dreadful takers.
You won't believe the relatives you have until they start coming outa the walls looking for their share.
The boat-load is a good idea. That's my getaway..... no more property taxes... I'd live on a frickin' boat and pull a barge with Bushmill on it. :Sleeping:
