Question Jackpot!

Okee, I was thinking about the Powerball the other day, and was wondering, if I won something like that, what would I wanna do with the $$? Pretend it's like $100-150 million or something.

Obviously, taking care of family (IMMEDIATE family, not like 5th cousins twice removed or whatever. LOL) and friends (REAL friends, not those that come outta the woodworks like roaches when you win ) is a priority, but don't put that, I wanna know what YOU want. Perhaps, a new house, would you have it custom built or buy a mansion already built? How would you furnish it or whatever? Do ya wanna yacht, how about a Ferrari, a trip around the world?

I'd have a house custom build EXACTLY like I want it. I want a home that looks like a castle, with grey brick. Also, I want a house that's homey, not like those WAY TOO CLEAN celebrity mansions on Cribs . Do those people even LIVE in those places, they are just too crisp. LOL I don't need 400 rooms, just maybe like a 6 bedroom home. One of those rooms would be my home theater, DVD, VCR, stereo system, surround sound, you get the picture. LOL A media room, if you will, with my movie/music posters and records on the wall, framed.

I also would love to have lil places (not big homes, just lil apartments or something) in London (HEE!!) and Colorado. Those are just TWO places I've been that I love very much, I'd have to travel around to see where else I'd wanna have a place.

I don't like boats, so no yacht for me. LOL

I don't have my license (still. LOL), so no car for me either. Of course, I could afford a limo and driver, so what the heck am I even TALKING about.

Hmm...now that I've been on a plane, would I want a private plane to fly around the world? I'd have to think about that. LOL I'd probably say yes, eventually. Heh.

I'm not a jewelry wearer, so no diamonds or anything crappy like that. LOL

I'd buy every CD that I've ever wanted, even just for that ONE song! LMAO!!

All that said, I'm a believer in money doesn't buy happiness, because if I didn't have my family and friends...no amount of cash would mask that pain.

I just thought it would be fun to see what everyone would want if they could afford it.
