I noticed that the multi-state Powerball Lottery is up to $100 Million dollars today.
If you won, what would YOU do?
Me? I'd quit my job. Go buy a new Lincoln or Cadillac then go pick up my Mom and take her on a dream vacation. She is afraid to fly, so we'd have to drive. She's never seen any of the United States other than New England. I'd drive her down to Washington DC, then to Florida. Then across to see the Grand Canyon and over to California. Up the coast and then across to see Mount Rushmore, a stop in Wyoming of course, then back home. Just long enough to meet the Queen Mary 2 and sail for Europe. Then we could tour by car or train.
Once back, i'd buy a house on Macondray Lane in San Francisco. I'd spend my retirement riding the cable cars and hanging out at coffee shops. Maybe a pre-dinner cocktail at the Top-of-the-Mark, or pop over to see Kirk at Beach Blanket Babylon.
And with the left over cash I'd have one hell of an antique car collection. I'd buy a red 1959 Cadillac convertible and use it as my daily driver. Which would be pretty scary on those steep hills in San Francisco! LOL. But what a great car to go driving up through Marin County to see the redwoods.
Plus with all that cash I could travel and visit my fellow Brokies when ever I wanted. Hmm, time to visit Meryl, John, Juan and Jenny? I'll just fly first class to NYC and stay at the Plaza or Waldorf. LOL
Maybe Limo up to lunch with Leslie in Maine?
Oh I'd have to buy a place in Riverton, Wyoming. Maybe a cabin up in the mountains and have a shrine to Jack and Ennis.
Now only if my $1 ticket would win........
