Can miracle happen everyday! If you hit a jackpot and win the lottery of 100 millions. How will you deal with the 100 millions Yuan? On December 4, a man in China's northwest Gansu Province won a lottery of 100 millions. He veiled his face on his way to fetching money.

I play the lottery twice a week.

If I were to hit a BIG JACKPOT!!! After taxes my plan is to divide it: 1/3 for me; 1/3 family & friends; and 1/3 charitable trust. However, I will hire an attorney and a financial planner to help...100 million of anything is more than I understand.

First thing I would do is quit work then I would be on the first available flight to China to be with my girlfriend.
As I have only ever won £10 on the UK national lottery its not worth dreaming any more than that

Is that tax-free? 100,000,000 yuan is about $13,500,000.

If I have that kind of money, I’ll use it to buy a house for each of my two brothers, a better house for my parents and myself too and then invest the others in a business and stocks. If I have a husband, I would buy a better house for in-laws if they want it and also one each for sis or bro in-law. Send all kids to school on both sides of the family. I’d also like to set up an animal shelter and travel all over the world for a year. Oopss… would that money be enough for all of those? O_o

Oh, well, dreaming is free so I might as well think it is $200,000,000. ^_^

I dont think people depend on the lottery, it just gives them hope of a better life.
Giving people hope cant be a bad thing after all its only what religion does.
Working hard is always the way to go and we all do it to get money and pay bills. But isn't it nice to just have that dream that we might never have to work ever again and all the people who know you can have a better life.

Firstly I would politely tell my company where to stick their job, book my flight to China ( whoops I've already done that, he he ) and head off to give my Jing the biggest thrill of her life ( soon be there darling ),then I would bring her back to the UK where we could start our search for our perfect house, I would also see my family and friends get a share of my fortune.
My old dream would have been to buy a pub, but the trouble is I would drink the profits, he he

Lionpower, believe it or not, I've never bought a lottery ticket so you can tell what my odds of winning are. O_o

Dreaming is still free. ^_^
