Day 5: You win five million in the lottery. How do you spend it?

This is tough. I've been asked this before and I think my answer's been very different every time. Here's how I feel today. I'm assuming the award is after taxes.


gift to parents - 500,000

gift to brother - 200,000

gifts to other friends, family - 200,000

payoffs to shallow money-grubbing associates: "Take this and get out of my life and don't come back asking for more or I will have you killed and bribe the judge not to put me in jail." - 50,000

bribes to judges - 150,000

bed & breakfast type facility for use by New Day Rising charitable enterprise. - 1,000,000

studio - 45,000

printing press - 35,000

fund: operating expenses for NDR organization - 750,000

fund: other operating expenses - 175,000

fund: personal living expenses - 240,000

flying around money - 25,000

matrix fees - 30,000

other charities - 250,000

socially and environmentally responsible investments - 1,000,000

rainy day savings - 350,000

TOTAL: - 5,000,000



Okay. That felt kind of lame.
