I'd quit my job, look for a new house, furnish it, then look for a new car, them move in. The rest would go into the bank. I'm just that simple.

how much are we winning here?

i'd probalby do neither...
depending on how much i won i would...
keep my civic so i could do it up nice and just work on it myself, buy a BMW M5 and a decent sized house with a BIG garage, invest the rest so i can live off the interest. remember... 10 million invested at something relativley low like 4% (GIC rate) = 400,000/yr...

Car, as it holds value such that when you trade it in, you can use the $$$ towards the purchase of a new car. With women I believe its the inverse. Haha.

I'd buy a smart car... buy a house (decent size) with big Garage. Buy property for Dennis to open his own shop.. Give parents 500,00 per couple (divorced parents) clone my dog - cause that costs like $28,000 and then I would invest the rest... oh and import a skyline for Dennis... he would be ever so happy!

First thing I would do (even before picking up the winnings) talk to a Financial Advisor (thats for winnings sub-$5 million). Anything above that and I'd be running a Civic Club full time.

Re: If you won the lottery ....

I'll take one of each of those. Then I'd probably trade Jessica for Ashlee because she's better looking. Then I trade the Ferrari for a McClaren F1. That house I probably keep because it looks good enough.

I'd buy a huuuuuugge farm property outside of an urban area. someplace that in 25 years a developer would buy and I'd make even more money. I'd buy a condo downtown toronto too. I'd lease/buy a really cheap car... prolly a new Civic sedan. Prolly buy a Tim Hortons as well.

Depending on the amount, I'd purchase a few commercial properties. Size would vary of course on how much I've won.

Become a full time property investor.

i would invest half the money in real estate, pick a nice villa out of the ones i've bought, the others are for renting, put some money on my bankaccount, some of it will be used for capital stock, and the rest of it will be spended out on luxury living , oh yeah, and maybe start my own business, or i will get bored.

If you win the lottery, I'd be willing to negotiate that
