Can you imagine winning either of these? I do not proclaim to win, but I would like to put it out to the universe, if it sees fit, I could really use it. I bought one Lotto and three Powerball tickets. All it takes is one, and I hope to have it.
Heck with it, I proclaim I will be the winner for tomorrow's Powerball drawing, and if the universe does not want to give me the winning numbers for it, I would be more than happy to settle for the Lotto, I know it is a measly 31.50 million, but I am sure I can make do with it.
What would I do with that much money? First, I would help my children, I would buy each of them the place of their dreams and give them spending money.
I would pay off my Mom's house and buy out one sister, and give the place to the sister who Mom wanted to have it. Then I would tear Mom's place down and build my sister a beautiful home, plus give her money. My cousin has Parkinson's, and I would get him the best help that money could buy.
My husband can buy the tall van he wants, and he can travel, I do not care to travel. I am happy at home, but I will have a home to live in, not this trailer. I would definitely buy out the evil neighbor. My grandkids will all have a trust fund, and their college will be paid.
There is nothing I want to buy for myself, except a nicer truck, but it does not need to be new. I do want new furniture for my home. Last year, our girls bought us recliners, and they are the first new furniture that we have ever had.
I would have a fortress built to hold chickens, ginnys, and ducks, so bobcats could not get to them, but they could still free range.
I might even invest in Bitcoin, I know I will buy Hive and tokens.
