    Make sure the family is set with college educations and trusts for the kids.

    Travel. Maybe a cabin in the woods.

    But I'd use most of it to endow a bigass charitable foundation.

    Hide for a good long while until the dust settles after the big announcement to avoid thousands of people begging me for more money.

    Then pay off debt, hire a few financial advisers to manage portions of the winnings instead of having one person manage it all away, then have them figure out how to give a few hundred thousand to a million each for family and friends with a low tax bite. Also, sock a few million away in a couple of bank accounts which would only be touched if everything else was blown.

    Buy a cabin in the woods, become a minority owner of an MLB or NFL team, travel the world, and see a lot of sporting events.

    Bad language, NSFW for some, but the first joke of Gilbert’s here applies:



    I didn’t listen to the rest of the jokes on the clip. Expect it to be obscene.

    Ok, just reviewed the whole clip. Recommend you listen to just the first 20 seconds and then stop.

    See my post above. Urgent advice man.

    I remember a thread in which this came up back in the late Oughts … and suddenly none of you want to buy a small community newspaper anymore? For shame! (but perfectly sensible and I don’t either, because who wants to put up with that crap only to watch the thing die?)

    Listened to the whole clip. The payoff for the second joke is pretty good, but it takes too long to get there. Love the third joke. We use that one all the time.

    Pay everything off.

    Quit job.

    Keep the current home and upgrade it.

    Don't tell anyone.

    Find an honest person to invest it and make it grow or care for it. Maybe I would flip homes on the side or rent them. That would keep me busy.

    Travel... travel everywhere. Buy something on the ocean, Maine probably.

    Troll the internet for people who need money and become an anonymous donor for people in need.

    Be sure I have a few million left for the kid.

    Please submit a grant proposal to my bigass charitable foundation.

    One of the things we'll be supporting is sustainable non-profit newsgathering.
