Lottery

The lottery tonight is a world record 540 million dollars. Which of course after taxes and if you take it in a lump sum, you are looking at more like around 200 m. I, of course, bought a ticket. How can you not spare $1 for the possibility of earning a 54,000,000,000% return on investment. I don't care how remote that possibility is. I heard that you are 8,000x more likely to be murdered and 20,000x more likely to be killed in a car accident. Which means if I do win the lottery, I should probably be pretty worried.

Anyway, quick list of how I will spend the money that I will inevitably win tonight. I will spend it in percentages not in actual dollar amounts.

10% to charity

20% to upgrading homes, probably a private island somewhere in Fiji

10% to family/close friends that need it

1% to buying exotic animals for my private island which would definitely include a pygmy hippo

15% to play with (jettskis, cars, courtside season tix to the orlando magic, disney on ice, etc.)

10% to buying a private jet and learn how to pilot

30% save and invest

4% misc.

This is going to be....awesome.
