Just stood in line and bought my tickets...
I think with that kind of money I would contact the big names offshore boat manufacturing and have them create and present their designs to me for something completely one-off... Who will win the project??? Hey, I can dream, right?

if you paid half of your winnings in taxes and invested the remaining roughly $270 million in tax-free municipal bonds earning 3%, you would garner about $8 million a year in interest.

This is one of the most enjoyable threads I have ever read. Interesting to see where all your heads are at.
1.I would buy the old GAF property on the Erie, PA bayfront and build a dry dock marina, buy my big forklift and enjoy. Have to stay busy somehow.
2.Repave all the roads here with a caveat that I never receive a parking, ticket, speeding ticket, etc. for my donation.
3. Buy a brewery, several to list as choices. Second job.
4. Buy a shack on St. Thomas.
5. Buy a Condo in Breckenridge
6. Build a new dorm just for the Rugby team at Saint Bonaventure named after two fallen comrades.
7. Donate to the local Humane Society
8. Give a scholarship to every inner city kid with a GPA of 3.5 higher.
9. Get a turbine boat! Than a truck to tow it
10. Build a toy barn
11. Take my pops fly-fishing in Montana, Colorado and Alaska
12. Tell the family to go spend $250,000 on whatever they want and who ever does it fastest gets $500k to buy whatever they want for everyone else.
13. Tell my two boys the only get a stipend every year for the rest of their lives as long as they keep themselves employed and have a revenue stream coming in for their future children.
14. Get a personal chef.
15. Can't think of much else.
