I would just walk up to my mom and say I won.

FedEx delivery with a big brown box. I know Fed Ex is reliable, but I am not sure I would trust them THAT much. Not that it really matters money wise, but I still would not send cash. Although there is a 99% chance the package would arrive safe, not to mention signature confirmation, insurance etc. But I would still not send that much cash via any kind of mail! But it would be funny knowing just how many workers handled it not realizing what was inside. It is a cool idea, but I would probably

I would have them all meet me in Orlando, Fla. (It would be about 12, my wifes peeps and mine) I would fly them all there first class; put put them up in a five star hotel. Hold a 2 hour meeting with an envelope in front of them that gives them an appreciation gift, instructions on how they can relate to us in the future, no begging; don't only call when they want something, what happens when their appreciation gift runs out, etc., etc.

I only have a daughter to tell, and that would be a phone call. I have a very close friend, and told her there would be a FedEx delivery with a big brown box. In it would be hundred dollars bills. That would be the clue to what happened.

I wouldn't do anything of any kind! They would be contacted by an attorney in there city/town with the papers to their Trust Fund! That's it and there will be nothing more to say about it! I will not be available to answer any questions they may have! My 18 year old daughter will always be able to get a hold of me, via satellite phone. My 3 year old son will be with his mother or I at all times, so that's a no brainier! My mother and father have both passed on, so there is nothing I could do for... [ More ]

Or would you? We are talking extended family, mom, dad and siblings. The people you would share part of your winnings with. I fantasize that I would invite them all to dinner at my house. When they arrive I would have a huge buffet of take out food from place like Outback, Red Lobster, Appleby s and at each place setting would be a new digital camera and a bottle of champagne along with the papers the lawyers drew up. How about you all
