700 million dollars

[Reginald Perrin]

If I had 700 million dollars I would buy my friend Gandalf a new robe and budget a new LOTR movie but so it is all about him. He gets jealous that the younger actors get more screen time. He has an ego the size of a bus! I do love him though.

I get the Thunderball where the maximum win is £250,000 which is sufficient for me and I get small (40%) winnings from £3 I put in each time.

FYI so many tickets are being sold it is now up to 800 million. May be closer to 900 million on Saturdays drawing. If no one wins it may hit one billion. I bought two tickets for Saturday so I have 4dollars invested. If I win, I promise to have a saddo meeting for a lucky few in NYC for a good match. I will invite Brock but I'll give him the wrong address. I'd be more than happen to have miles come along but something tells me he'd rather visit Pyongyang than NYC.

Spent 15 minutes in line for a 60 second transaction after work tonight. Everyone and their grandmamma was buying multiple tickets.

On a side and at the risk of sounding like a commie, 800 million dollars is far too much for a single person to be awarded

I don't like cameras or phones, so nothing personal there. I hate using a phone really. Plus Sype here is only through some third party so you have to pay for it and I am not bothering with any of that. I prefer face to face or just the simplicity of text. I would love to visit NY, but Pyongyang would be pretty cool too.

It is obscene amount and will ruin you should you win.

What would you do with it? It's a lot and I am fairly frugal. I guess I would give a million to every poster above 10000 posts and those on my friends list. Then thats still 660 million. Maybe 30 million for family. I am careful, so put plenty away for life and retirement. Lots of gold and silver and property. I will rent the property to poor people cheaply on the basis that they get a job. Still a lot left over. Maybe finance a coup somewhere poor and become leader. They would love me in a few years as I would want to do for them what happened here in the 60's, just a bit more Castroesque. That's all.
