Send it to a painter as a downpayment for lessons.
Actually if it's enough send the Chrysler down too. 8)

It should cover the costs 8)
Pay off the house and then invest the rest. No point living with debt if you don't have to.
My 3 year old says it best - Sharing is Caring ;D
Now if you can send each one of us 5 dollars... Oops wrong thread. Still waiting for the punchline.

#1 - Winnings Taxes.
#2 - Pay off Consumer Debt.
#3 - Pay off Asset Debt.
#4 - Find a financial advisor that you'd trust with your mother.
#5 - Don't get stupid with the winnings.
prolly a good idea to make sure the great state of CA is good for it before making any plans.
would suck to get an IOU........unless they were gonna pay a tidy interest to you
Hookers and blow for everyone!
Oh wait, that's a different script.
Hmmm ... disconnect and get an unlisted number. Have your attorney or PR agent step up to claim the winnings in front of the cameras if you don't want the publicity. Consider bank accounts in Liechtenstein, Isle of Man, Vanuatu, and/or Grand Cayman. Finally surrender to the temptations of homes in the tropics, cars, boats, planes, and private islands. Hang out in Mustique. Buy a foreign country.
Oh yeah, and maybe buy a Ducati. [thumbsup]

Nope, no paper cut. I did manage to get all 5 numbers. Too bad they didn't match the winning numbers. No blue S4 for me today. [bang]
