If I won the Lottery.



So i thought this would be kinda fun* to figure out. If after taxes i ended up winning 100 million dollars, what would i spend it on? Well let me break it down!
*fun/torment?

1. First i would buy the 2009 Toyota Camry Hybrid. I love my camry, i really, really do. But lets face it, its 14 years old and will probably die soon (my poor Raquel baby!). so i'd need new wheels, and this car not only is beautiful, but its practicle. if my 1994 camry has lasted me this long, i'm sure the 2009 would go even longer. so there goes my first $19,145.



2. I would pay off all my student loans: $35,000

3. I would pay off all my personal debt: $1,000

4. Pay off all my families debt: $40,000 (thats just a guesstimate but i thought i'd rather be over than under)

5. Pay off all my sisters student loans: $100,000

6. Buy a really nice apartment/condo in Minneapolis (preferably near Lake Calhoun): I'm not really sure how much this would cost... i'lll just say... $15,000?
+8,000 for all the stuff to put into the new apartment



7. Buy my parents a nice house in Scottsdale AND in Minnesota so they can be Snow Birds: $1.5 Million



8. Travel the world. Now i'm not limiting this to a certain amount of time, over the years i'd want to travel all over AND i want to pay for my friends to come with so: $2,000,000

9. Fund my sisters missionary work so she can focus on where God wants her to go, and never have to worry about the 'how': $3,000,000

10. Set up a scholarship fund for anyone who has the heart to go to the Stieger International Disciplship Training School in New Zealand: $25 Million

11. Buy a boat... what can i say, i've always wanted a boat heh..: $600,000



12. Buy 2 dogs a Puggle (a cross between a pug and a beagle), and a Shiba Inu: $800






13.Buy New clothes (i am a girl after all): $4,000

14. Buy all the movies i've ever wanted: $2,500

15. Invest in the de-salination of water, and wind energy: $1,000,000

16. Buy the Salvage Yard a church of their own: $1,000,000

17. Buy a really nice computer: $3,000

18. Buy enough books to make my own little library: $2,000



19. Make a CD, why not!: $7,000

20. Sit front row at a Broadway Show with all of my friends: $1,000

21. Employ a personal chef (ideally Ina Garten aka Barefoot Contessa) and maid for the rest of my life: $2,000,000

So that leaves me $63,660,700 left to leave in a bank and let it acrue interest to leave to my children someday. Any suggestions?
