It's nice to think one could hit the big jackpot and what one would do, with all that money, so I will buy into the infinitesimal chance of hitting the big one!

It seems more complicated that that but I would love to see more current information on where this money actually ends up.

As to all that money my house could only be so big before my maids would raise up in revolt or I would end up paying them extremely well. Your car could only go so fast and you can only date so many women, etc. Buying a sports team might be a good option with all that dough. Would anyone show you real respect though for just being handed all this money and not really earning it?
