Pay off the house, pay all bills, put money in an account to pay for taxes, household maintenance, utilities, etc so I never again have to worry about the house, or bills. IF the house or yard needs anything, I just call "the guy" who takes care of it. Also get the best health care and long term care insurance possible.

If there really was enough money, I would buy either a P-38 Lightning, F4-U Corsair, Spitfire, Mosquito, or Mustang aircraft and flight lessons....it would depend on what was available when I had the money...any one of them would thrill the bejeebers out of me. Maybe a Konigseg auto...

I'd buy a spread outside of Seligman, Arizona. I'd a big shop like my family had back on the farm with lathes, mills, a surface plate, etc.

I'd do nothing but work on, build, shoot, etc, 19th Century single shot rifles.

I've roughly figured out how I would split up my jackpot.

50% goes into properties. Mostly one massive parcel, somewhere out west, with a very comfortable, but modestly sized house, along with some select farm and ranch lands I buy around the country, and run by locals who already know how to farm the crops of the area. In the fall I'd travel round my different farms, having them teach me how to do various jobs. The income from those properties would pay for additional land accumulation, and wages for all my employees.

25% goes into a fund, and I use the dividends for charitable giving, at my discretion.

The final 25% goes into another fund, whose dividends are my "income." I'd spend that on whatever took my fancy. Building shops, buying vehicles, guns, whatever.

A few luxuries I would have:

Regular cleaning service.

A private chef, who will teach me how to cook whatever I want, or make meals when I don't feel like cooking.

A massive, well equipped machine shop, with an expert machinist who can teach me how to make anything I want.

And probably all sorts of other things.

G700 is listed as $75 mil. Private pilot, $500k-$1m/year.

A billion dollar lottery win will easily afford this. $500 mil in interest accounts will easily pay the yearly bills.

Eta: I could do a Citation X+ to save money I guess.

And I was going off this:
The G700 is powered by Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines and refined with Gulfstream-designed aerodynamics and an all-new winglet. The aircraft can fly at its high-speed cruise of Mach 0.90 for 6,400 nautical miles/11,853 kilometers or at its long-range cruise of Mach 0.85 for 7,500 nm/13,890 km

Pilots aren’t gonna cost you anywhere close to $500k-$1m a year, more like $100k each a year depending on some factors. With the airline industry solidly in the shitter at the moment there are a lot of pilots looking for other options.

First stop is meeting with a lawyer and an accountant, Second stop is to the lottery office, 3rd stop is to get my new class a motor home and Toad. Plan is to find a piece of property. Then pay my father to be the general Contractor on to build a house on it his payment will be immediate retirement. I’ll travel the country with the wife and dogs until
It’s done.

As much as I would love to buy a super car I just don’t see me using it in a beneficial way. I would focus the next month or two on getting a pilots lic and building a bush plane, with it without the loto it’s been one of my life goals.

i wake up with $100 million in my account?

within 24 hours..

1st action.

i REALLY, hate moving, so, i would not move to a new bigger house, as i love my current house, but i want more privacy. so, id just make all my neighbors move instead.

id walk to each of my neighbors houses within a mile of my house, and write them a check for 2x market value of their property. they would have 1 week to GTFO. id bulldoze their houses and plant trees and high fence in the entire place with heavy duty 8' industrial chain link fencing topped with razor wire, and a perimeter road for patrolling it. id be comfortable with blowing around $5-$10 million on land. that would buy me 3000-4000 acres to hunt and play on, even after including the houses id demolish. id plant food plots, have it stocked with high quality animals, id high fence it and be generous with the local town have it patrolled by the sheriff to keep tresspassers / poachers away.

second action..

contact a company to build me a milspec fallout shelter in the hill above my house, and connect it to my house with a tunnel, blow about $10 million making something nice, complete with underground garage, also build a really nice range.

third.

Buy myself a few fully operational tanks. like a platoon of sherman tanks, all fully operational, with working machine guns and main gun. plus a armory full of NFA weapons.

forth.

buy a small island in the carabbean, build a off grid vacation paradise, and buy myself a sea plane to travel back and forth, so i wont have to deal with commercial flights, or even airports. just have a short strip behind my house and land in the ocean at my island getaway. id fully outfit all my shit top to bottom with prepper supplies and not give a fuck about anything anymore. just have fun, hunting, fishing, traveling, etc.

Hmmm

1. Pay off house,
2. Pay off car and/or huge medical bill.
3. Send checks ranging from $1k to $10k to close family members (parents, in-laws, siblings) as a gift/to pay back times they've helped us out.

After that.... hmm life would be very exciting and stressful. Have to deal with protecting it, investing some of it so that I keeps making money, a diverse portfolio, depending on the amount, maybe moving to a larger place/more space, fences, security, etc. to protect us. Plan out some vacations, not right away though. Change jobs to part time, like a few hours one or two days a week. Idk, working without any money concerns would take a whole level of pressure off it so it would just be doing it for the joy of the work, the purpose, and helping people.
