    The very first thing is thank God, and then call all of my lawyers (personal injury, wills and estates, criminal, and tax), and my colleagues who know the ins and outs of investing (you have to be careful where you put money these days). I'm putting money up the right way. Next I would have a family meeting at The Outback Steakhouse. Sure we could go to Morton's or The Capital Grill, but I really don't want to over do it. We'll all eat good and I'll lay down some ground rules for us not to loose focus (everyone will get a fair and generous share). Next, order of events (not in chronological or numerical; it'll just happen when it happens):

    ...Donate to a few precincts/municipalities in major cities.
    ...Contact some old associates from The Hood, and put them on the payroll just in case (got to have people around to guard this and that).
    ...Donate to some churches that I am fond of.
    ...Donate to a few recreational centers for under-privileged inner city youth.
    ...Donate to AIDS/HIV research, herpes research, and cancer research.
    ...Buy my mom (even though she's irritating, she's still mom) a Lexus LS 460 and a house.
    ...Buy me a house (5 beds, 3.5 bath, 18 car garage (Rowed 6 x 3)), and a few other flats in the States. Also, buy some property to rent out. "..."a life like Grand Theft Auto, ***** PSP..." So what... That's part of my personality.
    ...Travel.
    ...Finish school ending up with a MBA from Wharton and a Master's in Engineering from Cal Tech. I'd also take some classes at Cornell and MIT; definitely not forgetting about Penn State and Howard University.
    ...Begin networking to help finance my own car manufacturing company. It may take a whole lot of loans, but we'll get there.
    ...Car List (all approximate spending values): It may change from time to time. BLUE = Stays in collection. YELLOW = May upgrade to new design model when it comes out.

    1. 1941 Willy's Coupe w/ a Blown Chevy 502. = $75,000.
    2. 1966 Chevy II w/ a worked 350 for street/strip. = $15,000.
    3. 1967 Ford Mustang (Shelby GT 500). = $25,000.

    14. 2006 Aston Martin Vanquish S. = $75,000.
    15. 2007 Ford F-350 Super Duty. = $30,000.

    23. 2011 Chevy Corvette ZR1. = Retail value (buying).

    26. 2011 Lexus LS460 L AWD or LS600h L = Retail value (might lease).

    I'd do other positive things too.

    My son will be very well taken care of. *** VERY IMPORTANT***

    Spending budget will follow soon to show that I can buy all of this, and still be very comfortable.

    Budget:

    Assuming taxes have been paid. If not, take out $5,000,000, and set aside for taxes (we will have a lot of tax write offs as well).
    Cars, Yacht, and Motorcycles = $2,000,000.
    Family = $7,000,000/15 people (I'm not sure who get's what chunks yet).
    Totaling all donations = $6,000,000 (10% to the church(es), ummmmm).
    Other non-included spending incidentals (lawyers, shopping, travel, other spending) = $2,000,000.
    Homes and real estate (investments properties as well) = $5,000,000.
    My Home (my design) = $500,000.
    My fall back spots, 1 in each city (New York, Philadelphia, Miami, Los Angeles, Detriot, Chicago) = $1,500,000.
    Homes in the nicer parts of certain big cities for rent = $3,000,000.
    (Property taxes will be paid using rent collected, and I'll pocket whatever is left over. I'll just be glad having the equity/capital under my belt).
    Other (travel, school, other expenses not counted for yet) = $3,000,000.
    Invest properly = $20,000,000.

        I'd probably give almost all of it right back for better causes.

        Wth would I do with an insane amount of money but just sit around and waste away?

        Never been one to play the lottery or scratch tickets or any of that crap anyway.

        And not being modest just honest lol but I think I'd buy a CG sedan Limited Edition V6 in nice black with gold emblems. Throw some 1pc coils in it and drop it a couple inches, nice tires, and tint...call it a day

        life is good.

          I wouldn't give it all away or anything, it would be better if you invested it in something that would keep producing money for you to donate.

          If i ever struck it rich, i'd make a grant for people who are left handed, asian, can't use chop sticks, and come from single parent homes and formerly worked at a grocery store. I'm sure not too many people will meet those requirements but you never know... people will do anything for school funding.

            That type of money, and a collection like that, you go "Self Insured!" You don't have to pay any premiums, just have to fill out some paper work and show you have cash set aside if anything goes wrong. That's how the rich do it. The owner when I worked at the Ferrari dealership self insured all of his vehicles. He had to get outside insurance though for the business/dealership.

                      10-15% to my church and various other mercy ministries around the world.

                      20% set aside for taxes. (low because of charity and retirement deductions)

                      Pay off student and home loans.

                      Build a non-profit drag strip and road course to give young kids an avenue and outlet from home and life stresses and get their racing fix off the streets.

                      Purchase 10,000+ acres in Wyoming or Colorado at the base of the rockies with a private road course and air strip integrated into a mile-long straight on the track.

                      Move 50% into long term investments.

                      Hire Bisi to build a N/A f22 for my cb7.
                      Hire Bisi to build a turbo B20 for our CRV.

                      Purchase an M5 as my dd.

                      Use my time to volunteer to service projects all over the world and build my business to help my family and friends build their wealth.

                        I wouldnt do anything except give enought of it to my dad to pay of the mortgage on the house and business. I wouldnt quit any my jobs, still go to school, I would defintly buy myself a bunch of new clothes(cuz i really need them, lol). I would travel and ball out on my vacations though.

                        Most importantly, I would still go and finish school, go after my career and life goals. Last thing Id want is to be one of those idiots that win the lottery and end up broke in 10 years because they balled out and took care of everyone else around them.

                        Edit: Id definitely buy property.

                            My family is lucky in that we have been very careful with money and our lifestyle, so no debts to pay off. I would pump a good amount of the interest into my church and other places that I've spent a good deal of time during my life.

                            I wouldn't take any money for myself as it would instantly lead to a sedentary life. Once you take a sip it's hard to take the rest of water from the well, if you get my drift. Take one look at the number of lottery winners that are now poorer than when they hit the big time and you'll see it's not all glitz and glamor if you aren't disciplined about your money.
                            this. but my interest wouldn't be going into a church, it'd be going right back into investments. And buying property is the best idea. there will always be someone that needs a good place to live. After setting up my place as a large property owner, id wait until i doubled it and then have some fun.

                              Cars, Yacht, and Motorcycles = $2,000,000.
                              Family = $7,000,000/15 people (I'm not sure who get's what chunks yet).
                              Totaling all donations = $6,000,000 (10% to the church(es), ummmmm).
                              Other non-included spending incidentals (lawyers, shopping, travel, other spending) = $2,000,000.
                              Homes and real estate (investments properties as well) = $5,000,000.
                              My Home (my design) = $500,000.
                              My fall back spots, 1 in each city (New York, Philadelphia, Miami, Los Angeles, Detriot, Chicago) = $1,500,000.
                              Homes in the nicer parts of certain big cities for rent = $3,000,000.
                              (Property taxes will be paid using rent collected, and I'll pocket whatever is left over. I'll just be glad having the equity/capital under my belt).
                              Other (travel, school, other expenses not counted for yet) = $3,000,000.
                              Invest properly = $20,000,000.
                              Felt like bumping this thread because it brings a smile to my face, and helps me forget about all the misery for a moment.
