I read somewhere that approximately 30 percent of Americans are depending on a lottery win to fund their retirement. This seems unlikely to happen!
Also, the number of losing tickets that you've bought in the past doesn't actually improve your odds of winning the next one. Because......math! To all the gamblers out there, sorry about that.
If I win, I will buy one of those luxury, long wheel base camper vans and visit every national and provincial park in Canada. I would buy solar panels and electric cars for everyone and make college and university tuition free. No unicorn, but a kitten would be nice. I'm not cleaning up after a unicorn. 😆
You just reminded me that I haven't played Lotto in a long time now. Also, I have a winning Take-5 ticket, and I have to turn it in and collect the $5.
LOVE the new digs which you'll certainly be moving into one day soon. I rarely buy lottery tix but when I do, I figure it's just me paying for some backup to my outrageous daydreams. Worth it, sometimes.
paying for some backup for outrageous daydreams--that's the perfect way to put it! That's exactly what I do. And honestly, to get fun day dreams out of it for $5...I can't think of many better ways to enjoy five dollars.
Sounds about right, except for showing up at "events". If that involves people, I'll pass. And I would definitely fly private (or whatever the Riches call it). Nothing overly fancy, just avoiding, again, other people.
hmm, dog sanctuary, scholarships for those who have the ability but not the finances to attend college or trade school. more food banks, more low income housing.
Yes, definitely! If I won all the dogs and kitties would have a home. But I don’t think I would be appearing anywhere, in any guise. I’d be too happy at home with the dogs, cats, sloths, and koalas!
Thanks Robin, like I'm going to be able to get the visual of a Clydesdale with a rainbow dildo on its head out of my own head.. 😂
😆 You're welcome!
I've had some of those thoughts as well. There would be lots of happy nonprofits. 😉
Absolutely--all the non profits! In other news...we wouldn't be rich long 😆

30% of Americans funding their retirement with lottery winnings does seem a little mathematically impossible. But I'm a writer, so fuck math lol.
Ooh the long camper van and national parks idea sounds wonderful! ...you have a point about the cleanup of a unicorn 😆
I can’t conceive of what life would be like without an iPhone case. My tiny mind is blown and I’m going for a lie down….
😆😆 Exactly.
🤣🤯
I fully intend to buy...a tiny cabin on a mountain, either in Colorado or Maine. I'm boring.
I think Colorado burns more often than Maine.
But Canada is catching on fire regularly too.
True, but that's mostly been BC and Alberta, iirc - so far. Maine and the Atlantic provinces have been staying pretty wet - again, so far. 🤞
I guess the smoke reaching NYC made me think it was farther east.
Alberta... well... enough said.
The Texas of Canada...
That sounds lovely :)
I would have a Batmobile and hedgehogs, too 😁
You had me at rainbow dildo.
Also, glad I'm not the only one with Dr. Evil living in their head rent free. 🦈
😆😆 I knew I'd get some likeminded peeps with the rainbow dildo.
Dr Evil, rent-free 100%
I call dibs on 'A flock of canines' as the name of the band I will never be in.
Oooh yes, great band name!

If you win millions, I think that means I'm entitled to a reminders fee 😆

Right?? Lasts longer than a latte, at least.

But ALL the dogs. Definitely all the dogs.
True, events are awfully peopley. You make a good point.
And definitely all the dogs!
Heeeyyy ... those are MY exact plans when I win the lottery! Although, I never thought about a unicorn 🤔
haha, maybe some of these are fairly universal.
As someone pointed out about the unicorn here in the comments...the clean up though.
😵💫🤮

True, why go anywhere if you have dogs and sloths and koalas at home!
The dog adoption fits with my plan, too. And I would travel *everywhere* by hot air balloon!
Ooooh, showing up by hot air balloon! Hadn’t thought of that before!
