Not planning on buying anything new. Just paying off any debt and putting a bunch away for college educations.

Wasn't enough to go crazy, but it is enough where just about all all earned income is fun money. I am not buying mansions and yachts, but I don't think I will ever need to cook another meal at home again.

I second that.

But then again, a new bike is a lot cheaper than going out to eat for the rest of your life....

A guy, recently released from Jail for gambling etc, got arrested again because he violated probation by winning a $1 Million lottery!! He's not supposed to gamble or anything, so they stuck him back in. LMAO - talk about luck.

Opps, too late for BF, all the money is gone. Paid a few debts and set up 3 college trust funds. Didn't even stop to buy a sandwich.

Smart play DM4, did you use a 529 for the college funds? That's a great vehicle, and gives a lot of options for using it when the time comes. Choose a state with a good track record.
