  I think the best part about it is imagining how you will tell your family. I've gone over it hundreds of times in my head, about how I would go about doing it. I have it all planned out now, it's going to be amazing once I win.

  Of course I think about it a whole bunch.  But I don't think about it in terms of how many material possessions I could have.  I think about being a permanent traveler for a couple of years, with no itenerary, and staying as long as I want in each local I come upon.  I reread the Canterbury Tales often, and wonder what it would be like to just move about the world, striking up conversations with someone new every day.  I want to experience the world, not buy the world.  I want to adopt a few kids and hire someone to homeschool them as we travel the world together.  I want to make them true Renaisance men and women.  I want no one to know I have done this.  I want no publicity.  I don't want my kids to have an easy life.  I want them to be challenged each and every day of their lives.  That is the only way they can be truely blessed human beings.  That is the only way they can help other people instead of being a drain on other human beings.

  I'm rambling on now. I have had a few Blue Moons. and feeling a bit more open than usual. 

  God Bless you all.

  Be sassy and be happy.

  We're always talking about what we're going to do when we win the lottery. That's a high I never want to come down from. Like many others who play I  check my tickets every night after the drawing hoping all six of those numbers match! I can't even describe what that would feel like.

  I don't know if ANYONE can initally IMAGINE what it would be like to win. Once that day come and you hold that ticket in your hand with all winning numbers... that is the day when no imagination can comprehend. And I'll be waiting for that day .

  But I'll be using it to pay off debt and help family and friends. I'm also not into material things (not to say I won't buy anything that iv always wanted)...but I would be doing alot of investing and giving away to charities. It makes me extremly happy to know iv helped people out. Thats one of the best feelings to have.

  Just imagine what you can do with various amounts, that way WHEN you do win you will be prepared and not lost.

  Just be realistic.

  I would like to win to get my family out of debt and new cars since I stopped driving in 2008.  The freedom that you would feel to be able to go when ever you want to places that usually cost money and you have it now because you won.  Not eecking your way through life all the time from month to month but really being able to see the happiness in your family's eyes because no one has to struggle any more.  I have been waiting for 16 years to hit a nice jackpot so I will take either one right now.  Good luck to everybody!-weshar75
