Default So you just won the lottery. . .

You buy your ticket and start to imagine what you're going to fill your stable with if you win. . .


I'll start, besides the plethora of bikes, my cars would be;

Mclaren F1
Porsche Carrera GT
Maserati MC12
Ferrari 355 Challenge, 360, 430 and F40
Hennessey TT Viper
Z06 Vette
and may be a Bugatti Veyron

I would invite people over on weekends and we'd do cruises, pick any car you want as long as I got first pick.

Sounds like the OP is gonna be broke in a year.

1/3 to Uncle Same
1/3 to long term investments
1/3 to short term investments

I wouldn't touch anything for a year and then use the gains to purchase whatever I need. After that I'd open up a bar and get an M6 to roll around in.

Default Re: So you just won the lottery. . .

I would hunt down so many cars...

Would probably start with finding two S800s. One would be restored to perfect factory showroom condition. The other would be a toy, built specifically to ahve fun with.

While looking for these cars, I would go out and buy a few off the shelf pantie droppers (elise, 355 vert, c6 zo6) and a few cars I have been meaning to buy anyways ('50 chevy coupe choptop, '36 ford coupe, '69 camaro rs).

Would kind of just play it by ear from there.

Of course the toys come after the smart decisions with the "after tax" cash.

Yeah, i'm talking the mega millions, one of the pots that you get like $200 mil after tax out. I'd buy my toys, invest the rest and live off interest.
