    what would you do with 1.5 billion dollars?

    i think i would still work for the rest of the winter time then:

    1. buy some land (no more then 600 acres )
    2. dream house with indoor shooting range
    3. 2 new trucks/cars
    4.count my lucky stars for winning
    5. stop breast cancer!

    That's fine, as long as you don't waste any of it. :lol:

    I'd probably just invest a fortune in land and equipment, a new house and sheds and grainery, add some grass and some cattle and horses and carry on with business as usual. I'd definitely throw some to family and make sure the family I care about is taken care of, outside of that I don't know what I'd do with what (if any) was left. :lol: I'm sure I'd figure out a good use for it.

    I'd start by donating about 50%.of it to the state and federal government, just out of the kindness of my heart.

    Probably like 10 minutes after you notify the lottery commission you're holding the winning ticket, about midnight your house will be swarmed with black vehicles and choppers and men in black. They'll threaten you and your family, make you sign a disclosure agreement and let you have $20,000 of it as long as you agree to a press release in a year and claim you spent all of the jackpot and are broke.

    One of the winners was an under 30 hedge fund manager millionaire who spent $30,000 to buy 15,000 tickets.
