WHAT IS THE FIRST CAR YOU WOULD BUY AFTER WINNING THE LOTTERY?

Although I felt a bit guilty for this not being my first thought, I decided I was already a bad person because I bought the lottery ticket in the first place so I might as well carry on.
I would be most happiest to have Fannie completed and looking like this...



Fannie doesn't have the roof racks and I could get along just fine without them but I REALLY LOVE THE LOOK OF THIS CAR!
And since I am spending money that I don't have, I would also like to pick up one of these for hubby if I could...



He had one when we first got together.

I also would enjoy one of these...




Yeah I could drive this to work...oh yeah I forgot I just won 3 million $$$

 

I've always wanted on of these from the first time I saw one when I was 10.

 

That is a gorgeous Cyclone Spoiler, especially in the Grabber Blue with black striping.

 

Priorities, priorities..........

1. Pay off all debt
2. Create financial plan for the 2 daughters, including helping them purchase a home.
3. Donate to some charities on a regular basis
4. Selling current house, and buy something maybe just a bit nicer (bit not too much bigger), and with a bigger garage.
5. Now, we're ready to buy this:



I'd also probably change around some daily drivers, buying a picky-up for myself, and whatever Marcia wants to drive (but right now she loves her Edge...)

 

This is a fun thread.

 

It's fun, as long as nobody wins anything. Once you hit the jackpot, you'll get surrounded by two-legged parasites and will be confronted with all kinds of decisions about how to get rid of all that money

I give to charities, whether I want to or not, as soon as I go shopping or tank the car. I don't see how the government here is using that tax money for citizens or anything else usefull

 

Yassss! it’s sounds like your currently on this path with or without all that mula. Way to be fiscally responsible krash. And a true wagon fan. Your the only one so far who would get a new wagon

 

commendable, but not even one car for fun??

 

Wow didn't think this was going to get so involved, so be it here is what I would do
1. Attorney's; Accountants; Private Banker - get everything set to take care of family, 2 brothers and my kids - that's it - the rest of them - NO
2. Get out of dodge; throw away the phone, and move on to this

4. From the boat - get the wagon restored and the rest of the list
5. Get my 52 Bentley; 73 Lotus Europa JPS and my 62 T-bird convert.
6. Sell the house in VA and buy another 1 where it doesn't snow, with enough room for kids and grand kid(s)
work hard to enjoy the rest of life

 

I'd buy a Lamborghini Veneno.

 

What’s the second best day of your life?
-buying the boat.
What’s the first best day?
-selling it!

Will someone please buy mine?! Anyone PLEASE?!

 

Preaching to the choir here.........
Always knew I would NEVER own my own boat. Frankly, out on the water once or twice a year in a smallish boat would be fine for me. And there are ALWAYS places you can RENT a boat. I rented a boat at Lake Arrowhead when I was 14. Parents were shocked when I returned to the lodge that I was allowed to do that. My money, my fun.

I'd also put RV's in this same category. We just would not be traveling that much to make owning one financially a good idea. Renting would be the way to go. It was OK when we had our trailers when the girls were young, but even then, the most we used them was maybe 4 times in one year.

 

Now that I have closed the stores, not driving hardly at all these day - yup I'm going to get me that "hole in the water" boat.
looking for 42 to 52 foot motor yacht, mid 80's so it will match the wagon, cruise the east coast and perhaps the Bahamas.
an RV - no way after driving 30,000 plus miles for the last 6 years and my 10 years in Chicago with my 4 hour commute the its the last thing I want to do
looking at:

 

I don't know much about boats, but that looks like it would be roomy and fun to hang out on.

 

Motor yachts can be a lot of fun. My in-laws have had a couple and they are indeed fun to hang out on. We go up into the San Juan's and go crabbing in the late summer. Best sleep I ever got was on a boat.
