    Default WINNING!

    You're sitting on your couch, watching your favorite show, eating your cheetos. Oh look one fell on your lap, go ahead, eat it off your tummy, no one is looking!

    The news comes on, you pull out your lottery ticket and wait for the results.... one match.... two match... HOLY trout YOU COULD WIN THIS........ hopes are high, so high....... BAM YOU JUST WON THE LOTTERY! MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ARE NOW YOURS!

    What do you do with the money?

    Pay off all my debt, get a decent car, give some money to my parents to help pay off the house, then invest the rest.

    Realistic answer is much like Julian's, but for real reals: Combine small victorian house + hovercraft + propellers for show = my own inhabitable airship! Yayyyy!

    Pay off debt
    Get a nice little place in the middle of nowhere
    Get each of my parents set up in a nice place (neither has ever owned a home)
    Never work again. Probably go back to school, though.

    I would donate most to animal charity, leaving enough in a savings account in case it's ever needed.

    I'd attend lots of school.
    Visiting friends and family/world travel.
    Lots of volunteering and philanthropy
    Collecting, racing, and maintaining cars of interest.

    If the money was there, I'd do something like Barber Motorsports Park. What a facility.

    trout. I'd go everywhere in the World I could go to and then buy myself a nice home with a swimming pool and trout afterwards. Then I'd buy myself into being a celebrity and OD later.

    Because I wouldn't want to end up exactly where I started in a few years' time.

    Investing the majority of the money could easily let me live quite well off interest and trout, so after I finished school I'd probably do a bit of traveling or buy some nice toys.

    You're not allowed to answer anymore. You're boring.

    You should have specified that you wanted stupid answers then.
