Thats a tough one. I couldnt decide if I wanted to become an alcoholic or a sex maniac.

You could always be a rebel and lead a quiet, peaceful life :lol:

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

Latest Review: "Merikh's Daughter" by Gabriela M. Sanchez

Post by Kaitlyn12 »

First, I would finish my house. My house has been a construction zone for about 2 1/2 years now. Then I would get a new car, buy my parent's a new house. I would pay off our farm and any other debt that we owe. I would help out other family pay off some of their debt. Then I would travel. Make some investments.

I already do that. Actually the more I think about it at my age the I wouldnt last a week doing either one of the others. Ill live longer just being a quiet, boring rebel.

I would most definitely pay off my house, or maybe buy a new one. Then pay of all my other bills, student loans, etc. and put enough away for my kids to be able to attend any college they wanted and then invest some, and probably stay home with my kids!

As a South African I have to ask.. Just the Sharks?

But If I win the Lottery, I would employ a person to sort out all my debt, get on a plane and have a vacation of a lifetime whilst deciding what to do with my new fortune, although Investing at least half of it immediately is a good choice I think.

My house will be donated for Orphaned Children and I will put my grandmother in a nice care facility with 24/7 care.

But then again, that is why I most likely will never win the lottery!! :D
