What would you do/buy if you won the lottery?

Don't be all noble and say you'd give it to charity... you know you wouldn't!

Me, I'd buy a huge estate and use it to house my private collection of animals. I'd have tapirs, vultures, mara, capybara and fruitbats free-roaming in the grounds. If they still existed, I'd love to have a Megatherium as well. Maybe I could use my leftover money to hire scientists who could try and resurrect it...?

If I won the lottery I would:
1) Upgrade my computer
2) Repair my bungalow
3) Get revenge on the housing company next door by buying one or two of thier posh expensive houses and then moving protesters into them *Laughs evily*, or get revenge on them in another way.
4) Install a REALLY good security system.
5) Share some money with my family

I'll post more later when I think of it.

Blimey, I thought this topic would generate squillions of replies, and so far I've had a piddling little total of one!

I'd probably buy a better computer than I already have, and get the best hi-fi and video equipment... like surround sound, DVD, huge screen TV... Xbox of course and PS2 and while I'm at it Gamecube (hey why not!). A new car, maybe put some in towards getting my own house, even if just for investment. And travel around the world to different countries. Oh yeah, and buy all that really expensive FFVII/Sephiroth merchandise that I can never afford!!!

One thing more I would do:

Tell the council to f*** off!

They want our land, even if we own it, because they want to bulldoze the wood nearby, and we are in the way. Also, since we tried to fight off the next door housing development, and are still a problem to it because we are a mess, they want to get rid of us. Total ****** stupid greedy bunch of ******** who **** themselves all ******* day and they are always wanting ******* money because they ******* stupid total *****!!!!!
Grrrrrrrr!!!

Oh, another thing. What is it with you guys and mansions? Can't you just buy a small house somewhere nice instead? My guess is that if you reallly want a mansion, then you aren't happy with where you are living now, unlike me, who is happy and wishes to stay here.

Interesting ideas, chaps.

For me, of course it would depend on the amount won. Considering if the amount would make me rich beyond belief, this is what I would do:

Build a huge gothic-style mansion on a very big piece of land. I would call it the Cander Estate.

Get cosmetic surgery to remove my eyebrows, eyelashes and all of my hair. I'd also have my arms removed to be replaced with bionic arms. I'd wear white robes.

I'd upgrade my computer to something fancy.

I'd start up a charity called The Sydney Cander Wildlife Fund, and put a large amount of the remaining money away for when I get some new ideas. The rest I'd donate to charity, in particular to help the fight against cancer and HIV/AIDS.

Why´d run away?
Don´t you like my style??
Why don´t you come and play, I guarantee you a great big smile.
I come from the imagination, and I´m here stricly by your invocation..so what´d you say?
Why don´t we dance a while?
Cause' I know what you feel boy.
I know just what you feel boy.
You call me and I come a-runnin.
I turn the music on I bring the fun in.

I can bring whole city`s to ruin, and still have time to get a soft shoe in.

Now, we´re partying, that´s what it´s all about!
