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.

#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.

If I suddenly came into a life-changing amount of money the shock would probably kill me,or I would buy a Buggati Veyron,promptly drive it into a stobie pole and become a very large McDonald's pattie.
Statistically, the prognosis for poor/average people who suddenly acquire large amounts of money (even legally) is very poor.

Have a look at the photos with the link. They will probably horrify you. If you live here,stobie poles are invisible.One simply does not notice them until one hits one. Even then it's arguable if you notice,what with being killed instantaneously and all. Here the family of the person killed when the stobie pole jumped out at him/her is sent a bill for any dents or scratches on the pole (really)
Quote:A Stobie pole is a power line pole made of two steel joists held apart by a slab of concrete in the middle. It was invented by Adelaide Electricity Supply Company design engineer James Cyril Stobie (1895–1953).[1] Stobie used materials easily at hand due to the shortage of suitably long, strong, straight and termite-resistant timber in South Australia. In July 1924 the patent application for the pole design was submitted in both English and French, and accepted in Nov 1925. Stobie described his invention as
"an improved pole adopted to be used for very many purposes, but particularly for carrying electric cables, telegraph wires... [it] consists of two flanged beams of iron or steel, preferably rolled steel joist of 'H' or of channel sections, placed one beside the other with their flanges inward and preferably at a very slight angle one with the other and held together by means of tie bolts, the space between them being filled with cement concrete."[2]
