    I would hire CM as senior car buyer!

    Hey CM find me this month.

    1. 1970-71 LS6 Chevelle SS convertible triple black your choice on the transmission make sure the A/C works.

    2. 1968-70 Shelby GT 500 KR you pick the color.

    Check back with me with some pictures after you have drove and touched them in person.

    Your salary is $250,000 a year all expenses paid, company car of you choice

    You are required to visit the shop twice a month to coordinate with the shop manger and give me a status report on all the cars. You will need to insure that you drive the cars and make sure they work before I do. You also need to advise the shop manger is storing and repairing the cars to your standard.

    You only report to me or my wife (only concerning my wife’s cars)

    Note: All travel reports are due to the office manger no later than 7DAYS after completion of travel.

    I'm rusty on my Shelby Lore but if you find a 69 or 70 KR you have found a true unicorn! I "think" the KR's were only available in 68 and they were a stick in the eye to GM as someone at Ford caught wind of GM's intention to build a Camaro KR in 69 so Ford scooped them in 68. Or so the story goes. I've only seen two in my life, a convertible and a fastback. Both were in the backyard of a very meager house north of Tulsa. There was also an Lotus Elan sitting there and all were in poor condition but whole and apparently solid. I stopped and talked to the owner one day; "I'm gonna restore 'em one of these days". Yeah, right.

    I bought 10 tickets. I think the most I've ever bought was 2 at one time. Y'all are a bad influence. I have a feeling that I'll just be 20 bucks poorer in the morning. :):

    First thing I would do is race around my neighborhood naked on a Shetland pony (unless that would be a felony...I may need a consultation first). Then I would certainly have to hire an INGO attorney to take my case.
    Then I would do all the responsible adult stuff with real estate, cars etc.

    Pay off current home and keep it as a living quarters for family when in town. Buy "dream/forever" home. Set my kids up for college fully funded, and set my wife and I up for retirement. Pay off my parents debt and my in-laws debt. Buy a hunting ranch somewhere for my dad and I. Few toys for myself, whatever the wife wanted, and then invest the rest.

    I would pay off all of my debt and then travel the world for a year. After that do the normal buy land and build modest. Maybe buy into a pro sports team to have easy money flow. I would also hire a chef as my wife and I hate to cook!

    If you ain’t happy with your current state now, half a billion ain’t gonna change that.

    If I could convert this comment into the actual amount of physical bull **** that it contains, I wouldn't need to win the lottery because I could start a multi-million dollar fertilizer business.

    Meh. Roughly the same as I do with whatever little money I have now. If you ain’t happy with your current state now, half a billion ain’t gonna change that.

    The moderately to fully happy people are usually the ones that have this opinion.

    I bought 3 tickets tonight. We'll see if my entire life besides the cat changes tomorrow morning. Doubt it, but I can dream.

    We all know the chances are slim but it is kinda fun to think about how your life would change if you did beat the odds. Even if those dreams are few a few hours or days.

    Oh, I responded with a plan to spend the money, but I don't actually buy tickets. I still have functionally the same odds of winning as ever else.
