spaceace12 Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Powerball is up to 300 million. What would you do if you won it? I am torn between building a theme park in my hometown or buying a couple homes (one in Indiana and one in either Hawaii or Florida) and enjoyng life.

CommanderLock Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 In this order: 1. Car. Make it a 2-seater compact car so only a date can get in. I'm mean to my friends like that. 2. College Tuition. Princeton. `nuff said. 3. Video game stuffs. 4. A house somewhere slightly isolated. Or an aparment at the Burj Dubai. Top floor, of course.

CoasterNut17 Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I would start a theme park close to here, but I would also want to get whatever I wanted. Winning that would be so awesome! Or I could just get some investors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groteslurf Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Powerball is up to 300 million. What would you do if you won it? Keep quiet. Yes. That's probably the best you can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaparri Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I pay off my student loans, buy myself a good car (something simple like a new Honda), and then I put the rest in the bank so by the time I'm 40, I'm about a billionaire. Though they probably won't pay me fast enough to actually put enough of it in the bank to make me a billionaire by the time I'm 40. It's a nice thought though.

OzCatter Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Buy a Bentley and an Aston Martin, buy two houses in Orlando and Nor Cal, and probably buy too many video games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Théo the little french Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Powerball is up to 300 million. What would you do if you won it? I think I would put it in the bank to win more money and then I built my own park (with only B&M's and Intamin's rides). I would be a park very futuristic, moderne and an ecologic example....

Nrthwnd Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 Pay all the bills off. Invest a lot of it. Travel with a lot of it. And share it with friends and my family. EDIT: And something I have always dreamed to do - invest in a Broadway-bound musical, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tngdiablo Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 1. Pay off all the loans I've already accrued and then cancel all future loans. 2. Pay off the rest of my family's debt (dad, sister, mom amounts to well over 200k) 3. Get my parents a nice house in New York. 4. Buy my sister an apartment in Manhattan where she can live comfortably while she finishes medical school. 5. Buy my dad the Mercedes he's been wanting. 6. Buy my sister the Audi she's been wanting. 7. Buy myself a nice and BIG house in Chapel Hill where I can live while I finish school Van Wilder style. 8. Buy a nice set of cars. Nothing too extravagant. Ferrari F430 (for the weekends), Ariel Atom (for racing), Mini Cooper (for daily driver), Saturn Sky (for daily driving without a top). 9. Invest in security for house and cars so nobody messes with my stuff. 10. Put a big bunch of money in a high yield CD so my wealth can grow. 11. Deck out my house with high end electronics. 12. Throw an ENORMOUS party. 13. Do other stuff that I haven't thought of. P.S. I've got $5 going on the Powerball tonight. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillMontu Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 If there's any left after taxes: Buy a lot of land Maybe build a few nice coasters Build a nice house (though I wouldn't want to be alone. Can money buy girls?) Donate some Get a nice fuel efficient, clean running vehicle Save the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkTrips Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 Can money buy girls? sadly, yes! I may get s*** for this but I wouldn't give away any of it other than to take care of my mom. I'd probably spend the rest of my life traveling and doing random stupid crap. One car and a comfy house would do (not too big since I can barely keep up with my current house) and other than that there's not a whole lot materially I want. I'd love to salvage and restore (and then sell?) used Schwarzkopfs though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLIPDUDE Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 Invest alot. do whatever's necessary to establish my career as a cartoonist. eventually build an amusement park. maybe open a restraunt/candy store based on my parents' recipes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odene497 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 We'll, I'd probably get about $250 million of it after they take some away. I would: -Put $100 million in the bank to keep making more. -Pay for college, a car, and a house. -Help out my family with stuff. -Get a few B&Ms and Intamins. -Pay for flight school, buy a jet. -Start my own coaster manufacturing company. -Travel.
