I bought a ticket and thought a bunch about this. First I'd get in shape. Then I'd move back to Texas. Then I'd start to travel and adventure fish. I wrote a bunch of things down. Eat really well. When I was done I realized I could do most of those things with my current means. Best 2 bucks I ever spent.
What would you do with it?

I'd buy a few thousand acres, build a mansion that looked like the Emerald Castle, and hire a bunch of housekeepers, groundskeepers, etc who were all under 4'8" tall.
Then I'd run around shouting "Just ignore that man behind the curtain!!"

I'd add a large hill country ranch and small Caribbean island to my real estate portfolio.

I would do that also, but Im afraid I would receive a cease and decist letter rather quickly.
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

While still guiding I bought a ticket in the store where I met customers. Lady asked what I would I do if I won. Answer was Fish and play golf. She said " What would change?". Answer was, as now, where I fish and where I play golf.
Some people go to church and think about fishing. Some go fishing and think about God.
