Not to ruin all the dreams but you will receive $558,000,000 which IRS will take about 60% leaving 223,200,000 to spend. I realize that is a large sum, but no where near the 900 millon advertised.

Buy a nice piece of land in a gun friendly state.. make some nice donations to SCOPE, (Shooters Committee On Political Education), the NRA and GOA. Then, when I move out, rent at least 6 billboards in the Rochester NY area with Gov. Cuomo's quote from his 2014 speech in which he called those who believe in things like the constitution, "extreme conservatives", "who have no place in the state of new york, because that's not who new yorkers are"..Then, underneath his quote it would say something like: "O.K. Andrew, I have no place here? then goodbye! and good riddance to your corrupt socialist hellhole". You know pictures of those billboards would be all over the internet.

I would ask redneck if he would work on my pre 64 264 and make it safe and usable and restock it to Mcswirly or Manners or whatever he recommended.

Steve: I would buy a new Rifle, a new truck and a new hobby car and then turn over the rest to the VarmintWife like I have done with all my monies in the past. She does well with our money/investments. I might even buy a couple boxes of Winchester 22 L.R. hollow-points at an upcoming gunshow should I hit the jackpot? Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

Cash the check, hire someone to fill out my retirement papers, and then go home, spread it out, and roll in it.
After that, any damn thing I want to.

Write out a huge check to St. Jude's. Annually.
Travel. Set up my future and the future of my loved ones. Buy a big chunk of land and park my ass in the middle of it. Hire a trainer to whip my disgusting fat-body into kind of shape.

When they asked the farmer what he was going to do with his recent multi million dollar lottery win, "probably just keep farming until it's gone"

A little bitty house with a LOT of land and give away the majority of the rest.

Man, it's fun to think about this. Knowing myself, my first concern would be managing this windfall so I don't go broke. I'd pay off all my bills, get this house ready to sell, and buy a nice place out in the country a little farther, with some land up north to deer hunt on. I've never been able to manage my own parcel, and this would be my chance. I'd set up my kids, even the wicked in laws. There'd be a good chunk going to charities too. My church, and many others. Man it would be great to be able to help so many people out.
