If you won the lottery? 50+ million.
No sports to speak of so I thought I could get my own off topic thread going... Will add my thoughts later.

Up and down that road in our worn out shoes,
talkin' 'bout good things and signin' the blues
You went your way, I stayed behind
We both knew it was just a matter of time

Iowa State: Anyone who's a true college basketball fan needs to see a game at Hilton Coliseum. Nice is in the DNA of Iowans and the fans here are particularly gracious -- even when the home team loses but gives a great effort, they are appreciative.
ESPN.com picked Hilton Coliseum as the "Hot Arena" in the Big 12...coaches in the league noted that, "regardless of talent, the Cyclones have a home court like no other." | |

pay off student loans for me my sister and best friends. buy whatever my parents wanted and then invest in a roth IRA and other solid mutual funds. buy a boat and new slalom ski and some lakeside property and go about my normal life with a little more freedom to do things that i normally wouldnt be able to do because of money concerns. but as Cmoore said I'd try to keep as much of a normal modest life that i could.

#1 Buy a condo in NYC
#2 Build a log cabin in the mountains
#3 Quit my job
#4 Build a go-cart track in my back yard
#5 Buy the following cars
Aston Martin DB9-My everyday driver :)
Toyota Land Cruiser-My mountain driving SUV
Mercedes CLS 63 AMG
Ferrari F430
Lexus LS600-Wifes car
#6 Buy a Ducati Desmosedici RR-I'd keep it in the house and never drive it. Too risky when you're $$$
#7 Tell everyone that I'm a hawkeye fan so they suck up to me and then at the last minute hand JP a check for a million. Then laugh.
This would probably cost me 5-10 million dollars. I'd invest the rest.

Immediately I would buy plane tickets for me and all of my friends/family to somewhere, anywhere really, and just have a huge party.
Then I'd golf a lot.

I couldn't stop working forever I would get to bored. But I imagine I could keep myself busy for a few months at least spending money and traveling
