What would you do if you won the lottery and became obscenely wealthy?

I'll be honest. I would live a life of complete hedonism and debauchery. My diet would consist of alcohol and cocaine. I would do nothing constructive. I would be dead in about a year or so.
I would get an attack helicopter with missiles on it and I would hunt little rabbits and stuff with it. I would have the biggest TV on earth. I would have hot strippers for bodyguards and they would carry AK-47's. They would also be dressed in bikinis at all times (fur bikinis in the winter). I would dress like a banana-republic dictator (aviator glasses, military uniform, greasy hair, etc..).
Whatever was left over when I died would go to charity.

Buy some land in the middle of nowhere, move there, and live the rest of my life in peace.
Or spend it all at once to go into space. That would be the shit.

I would get a condo in Dallas, Fort Worth, LA, New York, London and a few other cities. An Island for the shroomery. All financed by a bank that I would purchase.
If it were over 10 million. If it's under that then I'd just put it in a few select private businesses that have yet to go public.

Buy a house, have the biggest marijuana garden with state of the art equipment and automated lights, water, etc...
And asides from that, I'd just live care free and piss around. I don't even know if I'd quit my day job. I'd just explore... buy lots of little stupid things, lots of drugs, but stay in totally excellent shape. I'd be a huge, stoned beast with lots of fucking jewelery.
I don't even like jewelery. I have a little gold chain but that's hardly ghetto. I'd be GGGG'd up from the feeeeeet up.

First I'd pay off all of my debt, and all of my parents debt, the rest of my brother's Harvard tuition, and put plenty of money aside for my sister to go to any school she chose to. If possible, I would give my parents enough money that neither of them ever had to work again.
Then I'd buy a ton of apartment buildings in an area with a strong, stable rental market and no rent controls. I'd invest in oil, pharmaceuticals, and mortgage backed securities. I'd probably do some frivolous shit along the way too, like buy a few really nice rare cars.
Then I'd buy a huge plot of land, maybe in Vermont, somewhere with ne neighbors but still a reasonable drive to the necessities (gas, food, etc). I'd build my dream house, and a separate staff quarters for my maid and cook.
I'd help open/fund a company much like the one in the movie Patch Adams. Try to help provide free medical care to people who need it. I'd probably donate a few million to the starving areas of Africa, and pay the salary for a few physicians to go there for an indefinite period of time and take care of the people who need medical care.
Then I'd get married, have a few kids, put my feet up and collect rent checks on the 1st of every month....and travel to every country in the world.

I'd get my own place -- somewhat upscale, but not too fancy -- and then set up several non-profit organizations. I'd lobby the government on all levels for some of the reform that this country needs. I might run for office, but I'd probably be better off working behind the scenes. Oh ya, and I'd buy all the drugs I could ever want, which would all be legal as a result of my "campaign contributions" to the government. I might set up my own drug companies, selling LSD, mushrooms, MDMA, and several other psychedelics legally. After I'm done legislating us into utopia, my last lobbying effort would be campaign finance reform that would prevent anyone else from doing what I did. Then I'd retire comfortably.

1. Pay off all the debt of : Myself, My parents and my sister and my boyfriend 2. Buy a pent-house condo in Toronto, and deck it out 3. Buy a new wardrobe :P 4. Throw a party @ Aria in Montreal, and book all of my favorite DJs (Troy Pierce, Magda, Richie Hawtin, and many others) 5. Pay for all of my friends to come up from Toronto to attend said party, and have a fun time of debachery 6. Once I dealt with getting all my valid ID/passports - head over-seas and do a party-tour of Berlin, London, Paris, Ibiza 7. Once I get the party out of my system, spend a few months back-packing Europe and South Asia 8. Invest my money in such a way that the interest I earn off of it, would be able to support me and my BF without having us NEED to work 9. Start finding work that I /ENJOY/ doing - even if it doesnt pay much or anything. I hate being idle and doing nothing, and I get bored of being high/stoned, so I'd need something to fill my time with. I'd probably get invovled in some sort of non-profit charity orginzation. I've always wanted to do something that MEANS something and helps others.
I hate being bored, I hate having nothing to do - I like to feel like I'm doing something productive and useful for my time, so I just wouldnt 'lead a life of lesiure' - I would for a short bit, but not for the rest of my life.
Once i got my 'party be lazy and get high' mode out of me, and finished my education - I'd spend the summer/spring/fall working in Toronto (or wherever I decide to live), and spend the winter months traveling the world.
Generally speaking, I'd be 'modest' with my money - and make sure that my family was comfortable. I wouldnt give hand-outs to my friends, as I'd want my friends to be my friends because they like me, not because I give them hand-outs. I'd still foot the bill quite often - but not all the time, I dont want leaches around me.
I'd ensure that a portion of my money also went to some causes that I feel strongly about.
While I would like a condo/pent-house - it would be over the top.
I recall watching a show awhile ago about lottery winners - and seeing how some of them wasted their money and boasted about it simply made me sick at how wastefull they were being "Oh .. I bought 10 sets of swords that cost 50,000 each - arnt they spiffy!" *yack*
But mostly, I'd use the money to enable me to do things I enjoy doing - and not having to worry about making sure i made enough money doing it to support myself.

First I would pay off debts..............then, Like Eric Cartman from South Park says: "I'm going to eat what I want, I'm going to do drugs when I want. Whatever I do what I want!"
Then probably die of coke overdose.

I would smoke the best ganja possible outa big fat blunts... I would only take a hit or two (if you are rich why the fuck would you smoke ashy weed???) After a couple hits I would let my friends have the left overs. I would tell them something like "that shits wack but you can have my left overs if you want". LOL
Hunting tiny rabits with attack helicopters and missles would be a close second... just for audacities sake.

I'd paint and play music everyday. I wouldn't have an outrageous house, but a pretty decent sized home with lots of land around me. Maybe a farm. I would sit in the front row of every concert. I would have alot of fun but try and stay somewhat low key with my wealth.
The main thing I would try and accomplish with all my money would be... Purchasing a submarine and starting an exploration under the sea in search for psychedelic plants...kinda like the life aquatic haha.
Of course my scientists would eventually find a new and exciting alkaloid-containing plant that could be cultivated in your home aquarium. Then extracted and converted into a wonderful psychedelic. (Oh and maybe the cure for cancer lies beneathe the ocean, who knows?)
Then I would have something worth much more than money. My name right up there with the father of LSD. All I really want is to be remembered when die. I want to be a legend in the psychedelic world. I don't really care if I get a bad rap.

My luck I'd probably die in a car wreck on the way to cash the check.
But if I got the Mil, I'd build a small cabin in the Canadian rockies with a woodstove, and buy a house in the outter banks of NC with a boat. Then I would invest the rest and hopefully never have to work again.

Buy the Portland Trailblazers.
Fill the roster with my friends. Introduce the first ever Female NBA Player, just for noteriety.
Really, It's not like they would be a WORSE team if I did this.
And I'd have to have a pretty large Boat. One of Adequet size to support my Oceanic Lifstyle of Partying on the Randal Flagg scale. Ingesting more drugs than food, I would'nt live long either. Probably best this never happens.

-Donate money to all the organizations/countries/causes I desperately wish I currently could -Continue going to college for the rest of my life, and never have to worry about paying for my tuition, or getting a job to support myself -Travel like crazy when I wasn't attending school -Buy land and a house and amazing growing supplies, and tell all my homeys to put their baggies back -Give all of my family members - even the ones I dislike - a large sum of money so they could all finally be financially stable -Live the good life (get a wonderful massage, eat exquisite food, relax, etc.) -Use my newfound power from my money to meet people previously untouchable to me
I'd spend tons of money on concerts & musicals & movies & albums & books & such, as well.

Oh, I'd also start a party promotion company, or start working with one that already has alot of ties/networking power and start throwing my own club-nights and booking the DJs I like. I wouldnt really care if I made money off of the parties or not - I'd just want to throw the kind of parties that I'd want to goto :P

Every cent towards creating some sort of charity. A scholarship maybe. I've seen way too many Dateline specials that feature past lottery winners that spent selfishly and are now totally miserable.

Well, the problem is because they are gaining a large sum of money that they don't know how to handle...and it's not like normal income. Selfishness tends to make a ton of money if you do it right (just look at the business world).
Anyways, I would immediately invest 80 to 90% for two years or so while I'm busy drawing up the new plan of action. Then I would invest in a few up and coming companies...but mainly...I would start my own. I have plenty of prototypes that need to get off the ground. Plus, there are an insane amount of profitable ventures around...it just takes MONEY.
And then I would do a ton of drugs...

I'd go to music school instead of law school.
I'd buy a house in my hometown (which has, in the past 10 years, become too expensive for my generation to return to after college) 
I'd fill my house with instruments. Arcane percussion instruments strewn all throughout the house. The chairs would double as bongo drums. Pianos / keyboards everywhere.
I'd have a recording studio on the ground floor. Epic setup. Tre Anastasio's exact guitar and amp quiver. An obscenely perfect drum set with all the fixins (timbales, chimes, mini-toms, you name it).
DJ booth above the basketball/volleyball court with an amazing soundsystem that goes thorugh the whole house and plays softly in the bathrooms.
Whatever is left I'd invest and live off the interest. And spend the interest on having huge tripping music parties. And raves, and concerts.

first thing i'll do is ensure that no matter what i'd nevr have to worry about money again... if that means investing some of it or simply putting a big chunch in the bank to gain interest
then i'd help out my family and friends (paying the mortgage for my brothers, ensuring my perents retiremnt, give my friend enough money to record her albume and help another friend with his starting family)
after that i'd like to spend some time living one my own in diffrent places (vancouver, amsterdam, a ture in australia, ice land, london maybe even russia, japan and china?) and also going to see my favourit bands preform live all over the world!
if i find out i'd rather live away from home (not that home is so far when you don't have to worry about money) then i'd buy some land wherever i decide... i'll have a greenhouse and a grow room, music room (kinda like what Noviseer described) and as others wished for... i'd also like to have raves in my property 
i'll spend my time studying all the esoteric things i'm interested in growing diffrent plants i always wanted to grow and basically try to make the most of my self 
i will probably donate or even get involved with MAPS, Erowid, the Shroomery and a few more...
i just hope i'd allow my self to break free and expiriance everything i've always wanted and actually fulfill my self rather then induldge

I'd hire a crack army of former SAS mercenaries, kit them out with ludicrous weaponry and launch a succesful coup in a small, insignificant country that no powerful figures in the international community would particularly care about. A medium sized tropical island would be ideal, preferably oil rich.
Then design a silly uniform and run the place as I see fit, possibly sort its population out so they don't feel like starting a revolution against me. Once this was done, turn its capital into the sort of place that makes a combination of Amsterdam, Prague and Bangkok look about as debauched as my gran's lounge (which isnt very.)

The main thing I would do was starting a perpetually self-funding charity, which will be around for long after I'm gone. It would give me great satisfaction to be able to help people on a massive scale, beyond my lifespan.
But I'll probably blow $10.000.000 or so on personal enjoyments throughout my life. A billion or so poor people in the world have to get by on $400 a YEAR, thats a grand total of $20.000 for fifty years of hard work. That just isn't right. If ten million can't satisfy your lifetime need for material goods, the excess will probably add little more enjoyment. The best things in life tend to be free or come cheap.
Even if it was a billion, then still $990.000.000 would go to said charity, which would be focussed on improving living conditions and quality of life in sub-saharan Africa. Somebody has got to do something.

First order is to pay the bills. Second order would be to purchase a new vehicle, third would be to purchase a house.
Then buy a bunch of shit for the house.
Then continue going to school and finishing. While in school money will be invested into some cds, mutual funds, and a small amount to invest in small cap stocks.
After college, start my own biz. Then build it up make more money, and then retire at an early age and travel.

General reply...
I'd buy a Toyota Prius, a house, find out how much I'd need invested to live off interest, split a portion of the remainder for friends/family, and donate what's left over.
House would be modest but in a nice area, and anyone close to me could crash there assuming they remained civil.

I have, in depth, thought about this situation, I HAVE COME UP WITH HIS: I would pay off all my bills, all my grandparents bills, all my aunt's bills, and all my moms bills. I would set the afore mentioned people up for life. I would obtain my citizenship to Amsterdam and build an awesome coffee/smoke shop. I would keep 1 million dollars for myself incase my business fell thru and then give the rest to the research of psychadelic drugs and medical marjuana research.
***EDIT***
Also I would give money to the Shriners because I have a soft spot in my heart for kids. Also some cancer research foundations.
