i'd just buy neccesities and a few luxuries
like a big hhouse for parents, and one for me,
a couple of nice cars to drive around
then spread some to close relatives
and then reinvest the rest in low risk investments since the pot is so big i'll just be rich off interest

If I win I'll buy a GTR and bring it to the RS meet. We can see how many launches we can do before the tranny dies. Then we will light the car on fire and do donuts in the ashes with a ZR1.

I think if you're meant to win or want to join the fun and have that false hope we all have, one ticket is enough, | Quote:

Winner gets 80% of the total fund, 5/6+bonus gives 5.75%, 5/6 gives 4.75%. You can't accurately determine totals when funds aren't finalized, and when prizes are paid out based on percents.
