Today is a day that has changed my life forever. Today is the day I won 74 million dollars just by buying a quick pick Superball ticket. Now I find myself in the position to never have to work again. I find myself at a loss for words. I sit here writing this and I still can’t believe I won.

The question now is, “What am I going to do?” I guess the first thing I have to do i make the drive to the Superball operation offices and make sure I get that check in my hot little hands. Then I have to figure out what I am going to do with it.

I have played that game where I try to spend a gigantic amount of money. I go through things like paying off the house and the car and the student loans and all 13 credit cards that have racked up over the last few years. The total of all of that is less than a quarter million dollars. That leaves me with 73 and a quarter million dollars to play with.

I would love to buy some property, maybe a hundred acres or so. I have plenty of money, I could probably buy 1,000 acres. I would also like to build the house of my dreams. I would build it to my specifications and as big as I want it to be. I’m not big on cars. I might buy a classic that I can work on or have someone rebuild for me. But I could buy that electric car that I have wanted for the past few years.

I would also have to put some money away, money that would earn interest every month and would pay me back or at least grow so I can retire comfortably at an early age. That brings me to my job. A lot of people quit their jobs. I might just do the same thing too, but I would want to start a business as well. I would want to start something that would ignite my passions for creativity. Maybe a Studio Rental where artists and writers and musicians can come and create their passions.

I would probably have to think about my kids futures’; when I have kids at least. I should put some of the money away so they can inherit plenty and fund their hopes and dreams. I don’t know if I want them to have millions, at least not all at once. They would have to grow up and learn how to handle money before their full inheritance is placed into their hands. I guess that is something that would be perfected when those kids are born and grow up.

Ass you can see, there is so much to think about. With great Money comes great responsibility. I sure hope I can show that responsibility and use what is given to me wisely.

Ahhhhhhh! I’m a multi-millionaire!
