    I'd buy myself a ford mustang. Build myself a house. That would be everything I guess. Very expensive house :>

    All the standard stuff, new house, new stuff, pay off family debts. And then, I would buy the one thing i've always wanted...

    An automatic riot shotgun with matching riot gear. Why? Because it would be AWESOME! Granted, the type of permits I would have to buy and the classes I'd have to take would not be awesome.

    Pay off my closest familys debts, buy my dad that car his always wanted, buy my mum and dad the house they always wanted. Buy a house for each of my brothers plus some cash for them to do with as they see fit.

    Invest a large portion of my own cash into property and several small projects. Enjoy the fact i dont need to stress over finding a job that pays enough so do something i find a hobby rather than work.

    In general give my family a better quality of life for the sacrafices they made for me. Whilst trying to invest money in a reasonable way so that it will do more than just dwindle away.

    Create my own MMO and quadrouple the money.

    In seriousness, there is a family down the street from where I live, which is going through some very heavy financial problems and some internal close family losses, but still they treat everyone in the neighbourhood like that person is one of their own, plus their daughter is kind of hot and I think she likes roller coasters!

    That and secure my financial future, then move on to my family one by one. I'll probably end up using ALOT for trips all over the world, whenever I should feel like it, and have a badass projector and a bIgass tv hidden in the ceiling which automatically comes down when I sit down in my gaming chair and turn on my ps3.

    Life. would be better
    <DigDug> i think i\'m gonna walk to the movie theater and see dinosaur...
    <kimy-> and be surrounded by like 10 year old girls?
    <Amanda_> He said Dinosaur, not N'Sync.

    I'd buy myself a house...my mum and dad a house...buy my dream car, a 1967 chevy impala...then splash out on a holiday for me n my friends. I'd pay off a few friends university debts (in the UK where fees are about to shoot up massively) .I'd probs invest some in stem cell research...the rest i'd save. That way i could help pay for my kids future when/if i have any e.g a uni fund so if they want they have it.

    I will use the money to start expanding my evil lair under a mountain and annihilate all the agents invading my territory with devious traps and deceive the tourists on my island with a hotel including a lobby, lounge and casino

    I will recruit construction workers who will get trained by better minions and so expand my army and after a few weeks I'll be able to launch my rocket that disrupts gravity in a city and showing off my power.

    And thus gaining world domination.

    Actually, I'd just create my own business and try to double the money.

    Well, I have a car that is paid for, so no need to buy a car, but I have always wanted to build a very modest home, inside of which would be a not so modest kitchen, and a not so modest man cave to house all of my crazy new toys, which would probably take the better part of one million. $50 Million would be set up very carefully in investments which at this time I have not put enough thought into to say what, but I would strive to make educated decisions at that time. I would make donations, $1 Million to Oxfam and $1 Million to St. Judes Childrens Hospital. I would pay off one of my closest friend's mortgages and car. The rest would be mine to do with whatever else I like.

    Me I would have a hell of a lot of fun

    1: I'd get a great attorny and then a great accountant and an investment advisor
    2: I'd pay off all of my entire families substantial debt . ( house and car payments )
    3 My mother and my brother would never have to work again unless they wanted to

    Now for the fun stuff

    I'd buy the ultimate gaming computer and eveyr consol and hook it up to a 60 inch HDLCD
    I'd take a world cruise and see evey country ive ever wanted to
    Buy a house in the country with a pool and jacuzi near some place that has awesome school and community and build some houses for close family so I could have them by .

    so what would you all do ?
    I'd buy a new house for my parents, and one for myself, and help pay off any debts anyone in my family has, and help them get a luxurious life.

    I'd take my family on a trip around the world as well. Then I'd just buy all the material things I need, and probably invest in something worthwhile like a good cause to help those less fortunate.

    Put in in the bank and live of the interest. And AFAIK, isnt money won as a prize taxfree?
    In the UK that would get you a weekly interest of more than £ 5K.
    Id buy a fancy chair and sit in it for the rest of my life.

    Not in Sweden either, there is a tax on it here as well I think, you pay X percentage of your amount. Unless specified otherwise.

    Do you have to pay 50 million in taxes before you get the 105 million prize?
    Science flies you to the moon. Religion flies you into buildings.
    To resist the influence of others, knowledge of oneself is most important.

    Pretty sure it goes right from the lottery to the government before you can see it.
    They're not dumb enough to give you the money then say "we'd like that back at tax time"
    They know you'll be on the first flight to whatever place you could hide out :P
