If we won BIG money, we need to define what BIG money is. I voted "other" because to me big money would be over $1M. That being the case, you could do ALL the things listed.
Dick If you do what you always did, you'll get what you always got!! Learn from the mistakes of others, trust me........you can't live long enough to make all the mistakes yourself, I tried !!

What, and leave no forwarding address???

More than $1M:
1) change my phone number (went thru H*** & high water to keep it for 35 years - dump it in a heartbeat)
2) Add to my real estate holdings - already a good source of income (IF you do the credit checks on prospective tenants!)
3) Pay off everybody (fortunately, I could do this with less than $1M!)[:D]
4) Build separate heated/AC building for the trains

More than $10M:
5) Set up trust funds for the grandkids
6) Open a business that hires disadvantaged people (suggestions needed for type of business)
7) Make that train building in #4 a lot bigger and open to members/public (probably need separate property for that!)

Darrell, dreamingly quiet...for now[:D]
