I'm 5 (6? idk how this works) numbers from starting an empire.

we should buy some tix for the p-house so when we win we can buy another one (hopefully there is enough cheddar <--- elite money slang only rich people use)

hmmmm. first i would write checks to all of my teachers that are still teaching because eff brownback.

next probably pay whatever i had to to get oscar gone, make enough of a donation to get the east side started and then just live off of the land the rest of my life(with obvious cool gadgets and fun stuff)

Guys, I have gotten at least 1 number right on 3 straight tickets! Good things are coming!

Remember our IRL agreement when you win tonight on powerball friend!

yeah, so you better buy one too so we can double our chances

We've already bought a couple of tickets! ...if we win, we're driving to MHK and getting so PAK'd after the drawing!

I buy almost every week, and will again this weekend. A friend of mine just asked me if I was going to play.

Mrs. Gooch · « **Reply #105 on:** January 08, 2016, 01:26:40 PM »

Yes, I need to go get my ticket after work today. If I win, I am going to open our tiny restaurant in the Caribbean and hire pmshead as our busboy.

I had some scratch off tickets as a stocking stuffer and used the massive winnings from those to buy 4 Powerball tickets on Wednesday. I matched 3 numbers total!!

And if I would have won you can bet your ass the Landers Family Limestone Wall would be up at BSFS this season.

If I won the roughly $250M (cash option, after tax withholding), I would donate enough to get a hall on campus named after me, but nothing to much more than that to KSU.

Maybe, MAYBE, endow a chair or two.

chum1 · « **Reply #109 on:** January 08, 2016, 03:25:08 PM »

In all of my lottery fantasies, it never occurred to me to donate to K-State. Now that I've thought about it, I would never donate to athletics.

CNS · « **Reply #110 on:** January 08, 2016, 03:25:54 PM »

Keep it local. KSU and it's little bros are doing fine on their own.

if i could buy the ability to fire some people i might.

A liberal think tank would be fun to endow at KSU. Just for kicks.

Owning yachts are for suckers. Chartering is the way to go, guys. Same with jets.

Agreed. No sense owning that kind of perk. Hire it out.

Pete · « **Reply #116 on:** January 08, 2016, 03:35:18 PM »

Accounting and Philosophy. Those might be the two chairs I endow.

Pete · « **Reply #117 on:** January 08, 2016, 03:35:34 PM »

Maybe MIS

I would be tempted to buy houses right away. I need to fight that temptation and force myself to rent In a given spot for at least a year before I decide to buy.

Pete · « **Reply #119 on:** January 08, 2016, 03:41:46 PM »

One of my college roommates has a private equity fund. I would trust him with a bunch of it, but I'd put bunch into real property, like farm land and commercial retail properties. Form my own REITs.

I'd hire one of my current bosses to run my operations. Not for the power trip, but because she is very trustworthy and very organized and thorough....and, it wouldn't mix biz with friendships in an unhealthy way.

mocat · « **Reply #120 on:** January 08, 2016, 03:42:09 PM »

i would mockingly post in the CC thread all the time

CNS · « **Reply #121 on:** January 08, 2016, 03:46:08 PM »

I would establish a trust for each side of the fam (mom and dad/wifes side and my side) and hire my two siblings of mine and my wife's two at exorbitantly high salaries to be the trustee of one or the other and let all family money requests come though them.

I would set up a free college thing here in my home town too. Not sure any detail on it, but it would be big.

I'd do a GE day at the K and do it right

I assume this would include buying every single seat when we play some other monster team, then constantly post pics and stuff about it on line and really rub it in everyone's face?

Mrs. Gooch · « **Reply #124 on:** January 08, 2016, 03:53:17 PM »

I'd go to FattyFest and at the last second I would out-bid everyone on ever-y-thing by an exorbitant margin but then I would give each item to the next highest bidder anyway.
