I'm sorry but you guy's ain't thinking big enough.
1) Hire a mercenary army to do my bidding.
2) Buy a mansion in Miami, and also a Tiger.
3) Invest in some coke importation from Bolivia and start selling it on the streets with my hired mercenaries for some real profits.
4) Get some coke addict whores to fill out my mansion
5) Become Tony Montana.

Whenever we've fantasised about winning a lottery, we do have some family in another part of the country who we can't offend, but wouldn't want to benefit (we have good reason).
So part of what we'd be doing is to not be too obvious.
1. Buy property for family and money to close friends.
2. Buy a place (maybe two) of our own.
3. Buy a nightclub as a project.
4. Travel the world, playing EPT, WSOP and Aussie Millions poker events (chunk online too)
5. Donate to some charities, and secular organisations.
6. Fund a scientific organisationin opposition to the templeton foundation rewarding research which passes peer review which specifically targets major pseudoscience and religion.
7. Ninjas

Go to the dollar store and buy 100 million things.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

#1 - Give my wife half of the money
#2 - My family and friends all do pretty good, but I would offer to pay off the rest of what they own on their homes so they can live debt free like I am doing right now.
#3 - I would love to set up my own syndicate cooperative, which would mean I would have to buy a good hunk of land for people to live off of and turn into a production facility. Lumber, soybean, feedcorn, typical farming stuff, efficiency apartments, home school facility, a nice recording and computer studio and arena to have peacefests and other types of concerts and such.
#4 - I would eventually fly over and visit Iceland like I have always wanted to do.
#5 - Try to let my money bring as much happiness to as many people as i can, including myself...which is why I would focus on #3 the most.
