    If I won the lottery, I would spend it on traveling the world; since traveling is my passion. And I would give some of my money to my parents as a sign of appreciation for everything they have done for me and for everything they have given me.

    If I won the lottery. I would split the winnings. I would put some of the money away into savings letting it grow so I have money to retire and live a decent life after working my whole life. I would use the other half to buy a summer house on an island so that I have somewhere to run off to. I would purchase my parents a nice apartment somewhere in Florida so that they can retire happily....

    If I won the lottery I would first finish paying for school. I would then plan a vacation for me and my sisters. Before we went away, I would go on a shopping spree for my trip. After our vacation, I would then put away the rest of my money. It will have a lot more value to me in a couple years when I am older and need to move out. Therefore, I would plan to put it away in savings.

    If I won the lottery I would do a number of things. I would travel the world also, like Shaina said. I would buy a new house, two cars, five horses, a new wardrobe, hire a personal trainer and chef...theres endless things. Most of all though, I would give back to my parents for giving to me all my life. I would buy my dad a yahcht since he loves boats so much, I would by my stepmother her own gym and spa because she is a personal trainer, and every woman loves the spa. I would buy my mom the house of her dreams, and a new car, and I would buy my sisters a pony for each of them and endless amount of toys. I would want to give a lot to charity also....

    Assuming that this lottery involves winning money, not like the lottery in the story, I'd spend everything very carefully. If I won the lottery I would use my winnings to pay off all of my parents' debt. I'd make sure that they were happy and stable before I spent a dime on myself. Once my family is squared away financially, I'd buy my girlfriend an engagement ring and seven pomeranian puppies. After I've spent the small fortune on my family and fiance, I'd take half of what's left and put into savings. Then I'd use the remainder to finish covering myself in tattoos. The order in which I spent the money would be super important. If I were to use any money on myself before my loved ones, I would never hear the end of it. So by first making sure that my loved ones are happy, hopefully I won't have to hear any complaining about inking up my body. Hopefully they'll just be completely distracted by all the new stuff I bought them.

    I i won the lottery i would first pay off all my parents and family's debts. Then i would invest some money into the stock market so that grows. I would probably move to Sicily and live some where on a a beach and continue my schooling. I would also buy my sister any car that she wanted. Lastly i would probably buy a Husky.

    If I won the lottery I would get my parents out of debt because of all the schooling they have to pay for. I would save some of it and then I would travel everywhere I possibly can. I would be very careful though and not spend it all in one place.
