I pretty much covered what I'd do in the other lottery winnings threads, but since we're being very specific with the amount....this is what I'd do if I won the lottery and netted 10 mil from my winnings....

1. Find and retain a financial advisor and lawyer
2. Distribution of funds into various accounts: retirement, savings, investments, debts, charity, family/friends, mine, Organic's, mine and Organic's, travel, fun and frivolity, and miscellaneous.
3. Quit jobs
4. Buy a home here in Austin and one in Washington and maybe one in Florida and furnish said homes appropriately
5. Set up a foundation for kids that fall through the cracks in the system and set up the necessary arrangements (land, permits, building, educational means, etc) so that they could live on a large platt of land, complete with house of worship (all denominations), garden and greenhouse, barn complete with animals saved from glue factories/labs/shelters/etc, a giant house, a fully equipped gymnasium, and homes for their caretakers and the caretakers of the animals as well.

There's more (traveling around the world, learning new languages, visiting friends and family, etc) but it's Christmas and my honey has never seen Jim Carrey's The Grinch, so I must rectify that immediately.

Peace!
