"stubborn danged man," Cap - never known one that wasn't!

It's not our fault. It's the testosterone. Good morning, all.

So the answer to lottery happiness is to figure out what your favorite charities are before you claim and give everything to them other than what you invest so you can live on the returns just a bit better than you do now
Why did that guy have over half a million in cash in the car?

Idk how to do that, tech challenged. But i will pm pics to anyone that wants to see the incisions.

You posted them elsewhere, I have seen them. Just post a link to that post and those interested can go look.

I need 10 million.... just sayin'

Retirement for me, college for all 5 boys, grad school if they want it, my mortgage, new chicken coops with stellar fencing, a new car, and the rest into savings so I don't have to stress.

Sounds like your boys would be going to VERY expensive schools!

I would just like enough $$$ to bring the house up to snuff and pay my bills for another 71 years - no cruises, no fancy cars (don't drive), no furs, no gambling, no booze

That kind of lottery win could buy a whole mess o' chickens. Me, the first thing to indulge in would be yard and house minions. And a new car.....although driving my 2005 Tucson would be pretty incognito.

Why do I have a vision of Ron putting Greenfire Farms out of business with his newfound chicken empire?

I'm up for the challenge! But, seriously, life-changing stuff and it tests all your boundaries. I think the lack of normal privacy would be stifling... Folks waiting for your every appearance so they could pitch a beg at you.

win too much and someone kidnaps and ransoms you and or your family. Not worth the
tragedy.

Yep you would have friends and relatives that you didn't even know you had. I think we would just go into hiding, turn off the cell phone, hire somebody to guard the front gate and turn everyone away.

That much money would just boggle my mind. Probably wouldn't get extravagant but would be definitely living in comfort.

Lot cooler here today. Need to make a milk and bread run and this afternoon work on the bantam coop some. Neck is still sore but ya gotta do what ya gotta do and the little pin heads aren't making any effort to clean up their own mess.

Knowing the potential pitfalls and learning from other's mistakes, I believe would help immensely, coupled with lots of professional financial advice and help. I'm MORE than willing to give it a whirl.

On a sadder note, there's MORE rain headed this way. Should get here in about an hour or two. Seeing blue sky and the sun for a bit this morning was most enjoyable. Gave me a very clear view of the coyote crossing my back pasture, inside, at the fence line. Tried to point it out to my LGD, who followed me running down toward the back, turning & watching me to see what I was going to do next
