Geeze, here I've been wasting the afternoon looking at islands and ranches. An island would be cool, but man, what a hassle to get down there and fart with.

With 585 acres, I'm thinking this place would suffice.

There's also this place, but it might eat up those winnings pretty quick.

Take the 30 year payout. Donate the majority and buy investment properties with 50% of my portion and live off the other. I don't need that much money to be happy.

Hunt and fish every single day, donate to the churches, buy up land on the red river in OK, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota and Canada, pay my friends $100k a year to quit their jobs and hang out with me every day.

There's a badazz ranch for sale in Chama, New Mexico. Build a log cabin and be done. Just travel everywhere else I'd want to go.

1. Consult with WAWI to make sure I'd have enough (after taxes) to comfortably live on
2. Fund college, savings, retirement accounts
3. Spend more time with my family and friends
4. Once the kiddos leave for college, I'd buy a nice Class B Van and do the following:

Add Venice, Louisianna to the above map

Then a few months in the South Pacific--New Zealand, Fiji, Solomon Islands

Fly to Cairns, Australia and

That much I'd give away 90%. Honestly I would get bored not being challenged to work for stuff.

A ranch, at least 3 sections, in central TX. A few hundred acres, enough to hunt pheasant on, in Nebraska between Lincoln and Omaha. A place on a canal in Marathon FL, with my 33 ft center console with triple 300s, tied up and fully fueled.

And an account with NetJets to get me and my wife around to each as needed.

Not sure what I would do exactly, Im pretty content and so is the wife. I guess I would buy a brand new G36 Bonanza and build a runway on my property, possibly buy a place in South Florida and have a bad azz Buddy Davis 52 to fish off of. Im 100% sure I wont have to worry about any of the above.

I would buy out the TFF & ban everyone except DaveDave. He needs to keep looking for a squatch & report back.
