If you won the lottery or your current income was doubled how would you handle your new found wealth?

 

SN: I'm working on the blog  (thanks Bo$$ for creating the investment category) I'm starting with this discussion to see how people think about money.


My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.  ~Errol Flynn

Awwwww.......everybody wants to take care of their families.  Isnt that sweet *smirk*  lol

 

If I hit the lotto, my baby and I are going to DISAPPEAR.  I'm going to find some bogus excuse to go to the store and never come back.  I'll get an attorney, financial planner, pay off my property, buy my mother and siblings $500 worth of scratch-offs each, and wish them good luck......lol

@Smitty LMAO! You ain't shyt! lol But I feel you.

 

If my income doubled, I would work on paying off the bills that my stupid azz made that have been holding me back financially. I'd increase my retirement account contributions. Then, I'd live off cash instead of credit for as much as possible. You gotta have something on credit. I'd get me a condo, I've mowed enough grass in my youth to never want another lawn to take care of ever. I'd travel more and buy a car outright. I could do a lot if my salary doubled.

 

If I won the lottery for more than say $5 million? I'd freaking disappear. I'd send checks to my two siblings who are about ish to pay off their mortgages. Two of my sisters really are THE SH*T and they have no problem sharing with me. *sniffles* So I'd have no problem sharing with them. Our parents are deceased so I don't have them to spend on. I'd set up an endowment for any child with the grades and ambition in the family to go to college. Their azzes got to be bringing in above average grades in order to get ish out of that endowment. I'd pay for up to one grad degree. After that they can pay for their own.

 

If I had say more than say $20 million, I'd set up the two businesses I discussed before. The spa that had nothing but fine cultured and educated brothers performing the treatments. NO HANKY PANKY on premises. What they do in their off hours ain't my business and it better not come back on my business. Then I'd give back to the community with a senior citizen delivery service.

If my income double, would live the same way I do now, just save and invest more.

 

If I won a substantial amount of money, part of me wants to help others, scholarships, help my local school system, programs for kids, expand my business. Help my parents, 2 siblings (there rest can't get anything from me).

The other part of me ( which I would more likely do lol) says not to tell anybody,change all my numbers and never come back. Still send my folks a lump sum and not be bothered by anyone else.

Good Read.. Kimberly Lawson Roby..One in A Million..  Fiction but  good....  Woman wins lotttery  and huband and family loose their minds

Take care of my family and stop stressing so much about life and finances....maybe find a little peace!
