What would you do if you won $1.4 BILLION?

I used to think I would buy a ranch in South Texas and one in Colorado while keeping a 1000 acre place near Austin as my home base. I have changed recently though. I would buy a 3k acre place within 30-45 minutes of Austin and set it up how I want it. I would realistically have probably $45-50M in it before I was done. Im too hands on and it would drive me crazy not being to get to one ranch or the other for a few days.

I wouldn't live next to my in-laws any more. My immediate family would be taken care of. And I could maybe afford the hill country property and ranch house my wife has planned.

I may need to win twice to cover the house.

What would you do if you won $800 millon?

I would buy the Philadelphia Eagles and burn their stadium to the ground while parading out front in nothing but a dark blue thong with the Dallas Cowboys star made of diamonds on the front. I'd pay Hank Williams III to write me a special song about how the Eagles are the most worthless ******* team ever and I'd blare that song from specially equipped C-130's flying in low orbit around the city for the entire 2016/17 NFL season. Then I would pay to restore the Battleship Texas and hire someone to kidnap Jerry Jones and Sheila Jackson Lee so they could be fired from the forward main battery as yet another song commissioned to Hank Williams III, this time a Texas Swing tune inviting Hillary Clinton to have relations with herself, is blaring over the ship's loudspeakers. With Jesco White huffing gas and tap dancing on the aft deck while my battleship and I sail into the sunset...

I would also make a thread and title it hula hoops and then actually put those items in the thread ...

After 3 months of doing nothing, I would make an appointment with Donald Trump and ask one question.......now what Donald?

I'd tithe 10percent and then create some form of organization that would acquire large tracts of land and work with TPWD to create public hunting land. I'd keep 10mil for my family and use the rest for creating more public sportsman access.

After tithing 10% and paying taxes I would keep some (maybe $10million) for myself and my heirs, then create a charitable trust to put the rest in. The trust document would outline the types of organizations that would qualify to receive funds. A board of directors would distribute 5% of the trusts value annually to charities of their choosing.

Prepay for my Betty Ford rehab and cut loose.

5,000 acre ranch in the hill country for a nice place to live, along with commercial rental properties/more land to lease.

Double Wide Blues

That's hilarious!

Enjoy life at a totally different level lol. I'd want my hardest decisions to be where in the world I'm going to be hunting or fishing the next day.

Can't forget the large high fenced ranch in LaSalle County either.

I'd buy the Waggoner Ranch


Then sell every single thing I own and disappear onto the ranch.

Gold plated rocket car. After I paid off my debts of course.
