who here, if they won the jackpot, would invest or starting something..

or just live off it until you die..



for me, i think i would set 25% for personal use only.. the rest i would starting a business or some sort.. i would like to have something going for my kids after im gone..



btw, is the lotto taxed after you a big sum of money?


Another Question, Would your Attitude change after you get the millions? or the way your family/friends look at you? will this money be a positive or negitive effect?

[donjalapeno]

i'd,

1.buy a big ass house in west van for my family.
2. buy my family member sick cars, m5 for my mom, m5 for my sis. CLS63 for my pops and RR drophead for myself.
3. give family money, about 30%
4. Open hotels in vegas or a tourist populated place.
5. Go into my office at the hotel, sip on 1000000000000000 year old whisky, smoke a cuban and get a bj from a playboy bunny, while watching the numbers on my bank account go up and up and up.

[tonyvu]

I would put 50% into savings, 25% into stocks, and the last 25% for personal use.

1) big house
2)Lots of cars
3)bring family from vietnam over

I don't think there is any tax when you win the lottery in canada.

[threezero]

1. decent house
2. gtr for myself and benz G500 for my pop, s55 for my mom w/ chauffeur
3. 10% to charity
4. provide for my IMMEDIATE family
5. INVEST INVEST INVEST INVEST INVEST

[fishing666]

i'd buy new shoes

then i'll buy a warehouse of shoes
I'd buy 5million cad worth of China Yuan
get my car washed by a washing center
go to starbucks for coffee
apply for the centurion card
maybe get my door fixed

1/3 in the bank

haha i dont think No 4 is an option.. you know how much is it to open just 1 hotel in vegas.. mind you there are TONS.. in order to compete.. i dont think $50million is even enough... plus you said you give 30% which is around 15million.

You're a fucking idiot if you think you can open a hotel let alone hotels with a 50 million dollar jackpot.

hey hey.. hes jsut dreaming of a life he wish to have.. i would like to own HOTELS.. but not with 50million..

[Ulic Qel-Droma]

-buy a place here, tokyo, taipei, hk, shanghai and if i have money to spare, NY. by a place I mean a 1-2 bed condo, or even studio, nothing big, cept vancouver, i'd buy a 3 bedroom at least, or a house.
-buy a few cars for here, buy one decent but (doesnt have to be luxurious) car in every one of those cities too, and a scooter ontop for taipei.
-go on vacation to every one of those places and bring a few friends along maybe lol!
-party a lot and invest my other time into whatever new hobbies or interests
-make films
-investments, and i'd actively trade futures to maintain a steady flow of millions per month for years to come.
-probably get married too.

[G]

1. $700k to charity (split it for numerous charities too)
2. $300k random shopping spree/ party with friends
3. $2 mil house for family
4. $2 mil penthouse suite
5. $5 mil on cars
6. $20 mil investing in banks/stocks/bonds etc.
7. $10 mil split for family, $1mil each branch :P
8. $10 mil on buying property etc for investing.

Total: $50 Mil

[Manic!]

]starting a business or some sort.

Do you really want still work after winning all that money?

My list.

2 mill for a down payment the rest mortgage to buy 5 or 6 acres and build 4 houses for family including a pool, sports court, artificial ice rink and a go cart track.

The rest in the bank. The interest from that would be more than the interest on the mortgage. Should be able to make a couple of mill a year.

[OhSoGood]

My life would be the same, but with just nicer things and no stress :)

[FerrariEnzo]

Do you really want still work after winning all that money?


well.. 50million will only last for so long.. after you get the money, you'd want to spend lots of it to pamper yourself, family and friends..

what happens when it all goes away? or bad investment... then what your family/friends gona say, haha..


having a steady flow of income is better then not... its basically securing a future for my kids and maybe if they are smart, their kids also and so on...




Another Question, Would your Attitude change after you get the millions? or the way your family/friends look at you? will this money be a positive or negitive effect?

[BlacknJean]

diggy would spend all of it on food.

[El Bastardo]

I'd buy Revscene

[SpuGen]

I don't think I would know what to do with all of that money.
You buy one thing here, another thing there... it's not gonna take that long for you to realize that you've spent millions, and have nothing really substantial to show for it.

I'd probably just get a nice pretty big Vancouver House. Like Richmond/Surrey "big"
Huge Driveway, and a pretty big house. Huge Garage. But in Vancouver. If I can't find one, I'll make one. I don't need a big house. I just want alot of property in a central location. Haaah not likely in Vancouver.
A couple cars for myself and family...
Share a bit with friends/family. I'm not gonna just give it to them. Something like helping them buy thier first house, or pay off student loans, or invest my money into thier business. That sort of thing. I'm usually generous, but I'm not gonna hand someone $xxx,000 just to blow it on something.

Save/Invest the rest into a Franchise or something. Like Captain Happy Bubble.

[taylor192]

I would buy every online forum I am on and remove all the moderators. Then I would randomly ban anyone that argued with me.

After that, $50M invested at a safe 6% dividend returns $50.7K/week, $220K/mn, or $2.64M/yr after tax - that is if you could get a lump sum. Many of these charities don't pay out a lump sum.

[mb_]

25%-30% savings
10% for kids in the future
rest will be all out but spend it wisely (ie, not buying 20 houses, 200 cars etc - would be nice but i don't like spoiling myself too much or open a business that will get some consistent flow of money)

[Greenstoner]

If i win LottoMax, i will use that money to win next top prize by buying all possible selection combo..

I will never be poor

[E-40six]

If I ever won, i wouldnt tell anyone

I'd just put money in the bank, live life like any regular person and buy myself a modest sized house and continue to run my business like nothing's changed. and enjoy life without any worries.

No point being flashy and flinging around the money you didnt earn, its just asking for trouble and new family members to come knocking on your door

I'd give most of it to charity. The rest to my kids. Nothing to the wife. LOL, although she'd get half of whatever no matter what. Oh right, forgot........ I'm giving most of it to charity. LOLOLOLOL.

As soon as I get senile or disabled or too old, I'll hire someone to just shoot me dead, 'cause life sucks and then you die.

[CP.AR]

I'd pay off my parent's mortgages, buy my grandparents a 5 series, an SL55 for my dad, and I know my mom likes to stick with her CR-V. (not going to turn her into a X5 driving C-Lai anyhow)

Then, give $2mil to various charities, with the biggest hunk going to cancer research and the children's hospital.

The rest?
Invest 3/4 and save 1/4

Staying anonymous is not an option. Identities of lottery winners become public domain... otherwise I can't imagine why any lottery winner would voluntarily ever want to have it advertised.

But what I would do is make sure I have all my bases covered in terms of how to preserve my privacy BEFORE going to claim the money.

I would probably go buy a Ferrari... maybe F430 or California... probably get a decently sized house, no real need for a mansion per se... make sure the family is taken care of... but in general, would probably be fairly conservative with the spending. I sure as hell would never be one of those retards that somehow blows their entire fortune and then ends up broke again...

[vafanculo]

I'm sure everyones attitudes would change. Yours, your family/friends and everyone around you.

Among the many things I'd buy, I'd build my dog a massive play pen with female dogs laying around he can sex every night.

pretty much what I would do

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

spent $70 bux and didnt even win a free ticket

lol

[hotjoint]

wow $70? The most I ever spend is $20 and thats when its at max

[Vale46Rossi]

Well, would you want the retarded one or the smart one?

I would do this as the smart one:

Spend a few mill to get what ever the hell I want like car(s) or a house or two to get it out of the system

With Richmond's rising house prices I would then rent out the house and make a little income (just there to be safe)

With 10 mil or so left I will start a foundation to donate.

5 for big return investments

and the last 25 mil I will sit down with someone at the bank to make a plan for me to see how much interest this $25mill will generate and spend the interest only.

My life would still go on with a job and that money will be for living as well.

[jackmeister]

1) make it rain with 10k in 1 dollar bills at a club in the US
2) buy season tickets to canucks and then hire people to scalp the unwanted tickets
3) black card for everybody in my family
4) some nice cars and some cheap cars
5) treat friends and family to a holiday
6) live off the rest on investment returns and be a career student

-- no i'm not giving my money away, not in a phase of life where i need to leave my legacy with donations.

[skylinergtr]

if i won...

- buy a brand new BMW E92 M3 sedan
- pay off family mortgage
- bribe my way through school
- rest is in savings and watch it go up with interest.

[nack]

donate 10 percent to hospitals, buy a penthouse around false creek, pay the mortgage for my parents, buy mountain bikes; and finally, invest in renewable power sources

[!Aznboi128]

If I won,

10% would be charity/revscene
15% to my parents
10% to buy two houses (one to live one to rent)
spend could grand to fix up my accord with a j32 turbo and 6 speed swap + full repaint.

The rest.... Bank for the future, and holding bi-weekly un-offical rs bbq meets :)

Owning a business is a risky investment rather just throw it in the bank and collect a few mill a year.

[dachinesedude]

besides the obvious houses, cars, and investments....

imma make it champagne rain, errrrr day, its gonna be like a freakin rap video

[elwell]

Do what Vincent Chase would do

[Soundy]

I'd buy Revscene

I'd buy RevScene and install a filter that makes ALL posts look like they were made by Tic Tac.

BTW, just a note for anyone who would hand out money to friends and relatives: remember that while WINNINGS are tax-free, large gifts are not, and the recipients of your generosity will have to pay their own income tax.

The trick to getting around it is to use one of BCLC's "group buy" forms, and name all those people as "co-winners". Where a regular group buy might give everyone an equal split, you CAN specify who gets what percetage - parents are 10% partners, siblings 5%, etc.

[Dentz]

I'd continue living more or less exactly how I am. I'd pay off a few debts, pay off the parent's house, and buy a couple places in downtown Vancouver, most of which i'd rent out; probably buy a prius too.

After that, the rest goes into the saving's account where the money works for me! Oh, and I'd keep on working too.

[Soundy]

Staying anonymous is not an option. Identities of lottery winners become public domain...

Not really. But allowing BCLC to publicize your win is part of the conditions for your payout.

http://bclc.com/documents/RulesandRegulationsLotteries.pdf

The Corporation has no obligation to pay or deliver a prize unless the winner ... gives the Corporation the right to publish the winner's name, address, place of residence and recent photograph without any claim for broadcasting, printing, royalty or other rights....

In other words, if you don't let them publish your info, you don't get the money.

isn't that what i just said?

this is common to pretty much every lottery in the world, btw...

If the person had the option to stay anonymous, every couple of lottery draws, the company would just pocket the 10 mill and say the winner wanted to stay hidden...

gtfo of vancouver, go to ny or la or somewhere with nice roads.

I would not work again but I would go back to school, probably forever. Just a couple classes at a time so I'd have lots of free time for doing other shit I enjoy.

[tiger_handheld]

buy three houses <1m each.
buy a lexus hybrid for the mom and dad , and an acura hybrid for myself
20% to the church
split the rest 25/25/25/25 for micro loans/ equity/ investing /savings in bank.
I'd personally visit SG! and offer him to pay the half the server fees till he retires-- on one condition that he gets a better RS homepage.

[Tapioca]

Aside from the usual debt servicing and family obligations, I'd probably go back to school and do a Masters of some sort, followed by a PhD thesis at some well-known school outside of the country. I would probably fix my current shoebox up and possibly acquire some storage space so I could purchase a few used cars that I've always wanted to own that I can't currently afford.

Upon my return from travelling and studying abroad, I would also probably do some side work/projects and possibly a customer-service type of job on a casual basis to keep myself somewhat grounded in reality.

And of course, I'd collect my 3-4% on conversative investments and use a small portion on high-risk stuff just for some variety.

[Ch28]

i'd,

1.buy a big ass house in west van for my family.
2. buy my family member sick cars, m5 for my mom, m5 for my sis. CLS63 for my pops and RR drophead for myself.
3. give family money, about 30%
4. Open hotels in vegas or a tourist populated place.
5. Go into my office at the hotel, sip on 1000000000000000 year old whisky, smoke a cuban and get a bj from a playboy bunny, while watching the numbers on my bank account go up and up and up.

The Bellagio fountains alone cost $78 million to make and their opening ceremony cost around $90 million.

Yes, you will get taxed in Canada if you win a lotto aprox 45% will go straight to the government.


No you don't, whoever told you that is an idiot.

# Do I have to pay tax on lottery, casino or bingo prizes?
At this time, lottery, casino and bingo winnings are tax-free in Canada.

it's under prizes

[hal0g0dv2]

buy a veryon and drive it into a lake

[murd0c]

You only pay tax on the interest of what you win.

[Drow]

would you guys choose to receive a lump sum payment, but significantly lower than the advertised winnings, or receive small payments for about the rest of ur life but it would sum up to the advertised winnings?

lump sum here

in Canada there is no lump sum payment, you get the full amount. Thats only in the states or with the Set for life.

[FerrariEnzo]

i much rather get a lump sum.. as least you can buy a house or townhouse with Set For Life..

I don't think Swiss Banks pay interest. Isn't that the point of a Swiss Bank, so your money is secure if you're partaking in illegal activities?

I could be wrong though.

Anyway I think for the first year I'd travel the world. Nobody would know I was a millionaire and I wouldn't advertise it to anyone. I could do anything I wanted and buy anything I wanted all while keeping my status discrete. I think about this stuff every time I purchase a ticket.

[murd0c]

First I would go and buy a bentaly gt, then get a wicked house built that would have its own power source so if there's a natural idsaster I would be fine and when I would be waiting for the house to be built I would travel around the world

great idea, i hate when the power goes out and i cant play cod

[q0192837465]

I'd move to a new city and change my phone number every month so those "charities" can't get a hold of me. After a year of exploring Canada, I'll go back to the work force as though I havent won anything and live the life as a normal person.

[ShanghaiKid]

[Onassis]

[q0192837465]

That 43 Mil is mine, thx for contrubuting

[Honyoung]

[falcon]

I'd build a F1 spec track in the Valley.

Then buy a nice house in W. Van, one in TO and one in Northern Germany. Then just be a baller.

LOL That's going to be a pretty small track.

[OhNoes]

First thing I would get would be a penthouse thats pet friendly
Second thing I would get is a 2000+ Lotus Esprit

and I'm set for life.

[FerrariEnzo]

its prolly just the pit area he can build...

[2damaxmr2]

I would have sex with all your sisters.

you vancouverites/richmonders forget the valley is big. venture out of you respective cities once in a while and you will see.

[CP.AR]

buy a veryon and drive it into a lake

you need to hire some pelicans too

[Onassis]

I hope you'll buy an education with your lotto winnings because 43 million doesn't mean shit when your trying to build a F1 spec track.

[Laundry]

I got 4/7 on the most recent draw...... I matched the first 2 numbers and was praying for the rest.. oh well, putting $20 won back into the next draw...

[hotjoint]

got a free play from yesterdays draw. Looks like I'm going to have to buy another ticket for next this fridays draw :)

[Meowjin]

It probably be enough backing though to get the city to put in the rest, just gotta convince bernie that it will be a good race. and not suffer from valenciaism.

[no_clue]

I love all the optimism and hope in this thread.

Apparently when you win the lottery, every person you met in your life will contact you at some point to be "friends" in hopes you'll pay off their mortgage. Also charities constantly bombard you for donations.

Is there a way for BCLC not to take a photo of you if you win?

[tegz]

Give 20~40% to parents...

I'd use it to open my dream business... A race track closer than Mission with no expenses spared. Probably in Richmond or Burnaby.. maybe surrey... Then have a garage shop right next to it to fix up peoples cars for cheap..

Let all my friends race there for free LOL

Yes, I'm going to be broke!!

probably not, but i always wondered that. I would like to recieve my cheque in private and not have my face all over the news.

[toyota86]

probably not. my uncle used to own a corner store. people that win are required to have their picture taken and their name posted. also, the store where the winning ticket was bought is required to put up the picture of the winner. but, that doesn't mean you cant dress up like its halloween when you go claim your prize.

[iambuRnz]

^^ good idea.

personally, i wouldnt worry about unknown friends and distant families being so friendly all of a sudden. just ignore them and enjoy your newly acquired wealth. they can't force you to pay their mortgage, debts, and shit.

That's not the main issue, I forgot the ones who sue you and even try to kill you. Example was the guy who hired a hitman to kill his brother because he won the lottery in hopes to inherit the winnings.

Money is evil !

i also hear that theres this Filipino couple who won money, not sure how much but it was lots.. they traveled back to the Philippine and they son got kidnapped!

Apparently they are looking into it. In Ontario, if your winnings exceed $5million, you can remain anonymous.

doesnt make sense.. if you win under 5million they take photos and plaster your face in the papers?

i won $10 but i dont get pics taken!?!??!

[Leparto]

[2damaxmr2]

I would buy this site and ban all the mods.
