The guys I work with and my boss would get 1-5 Mil each so they could retire comfortably and immediately. A few best friends would get 5-10 Mil each. Probably set up a hunting consulting firm for my buds to properly vet prospective outfitters for a decent salary. Make sure my parents and sister/bil had more than enough. Set up trust funds for the kids and any future grandkids. Have a couple nice places in northern and southern AZ to live and shelter funds and income, set up a nice Midwest whitetail property. Finish my true sheep slam of the 7 NA sheep, start hunting all over the world for whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted and fly first class or private to get there. Make sure my wife got to take me to all the other dream places she has not dragged me yet. And finally, go to some of the banquets and start bidding Jimmy John and the other rich guys up for some governors tags.

And hunt summer musk ox every year and fly that sucker home whole and dry age it for a month for my beef supply for the year. Probably a buffalo too. And a halibut, crab, shrimp, salmon trip for freezer filling as well!

Endless opportunities

 

[Billy Goat]

Buy rokslide, not allow locking or deletion of threads and watch everyone cry as it becomes the wild west of hunting forums!

This is what I was gonna say, beat me too it.


I'd also payroll some deleted members, maybe even a few mods.

Which deleted members?!

 

[Billy Goat]

Which deleted members?!

I ain't gonna say, probably get thrown in the mix.

 

[Cannonball]

Jimmy John would have some competition for the AZ governors tags

 

[CaliWoodsman]

I would see to it that Ol’ Jimmy John’s only options for hunting going forward are either going OTC or starting to build preference points. (Not because I have anything against JJ, I just want those tags)

I probably won’t find out for about a month from the drawing. The tickets will sit on my dresser until I check them. Then I’ll be mad I went to work and I didn’t have to. Id treat myself to a nice tract of land with at least 1000+ acres.

“Suck it”

 

[RancherJohn]

Tres Commas Ranch. And also a line of ranch dressing of the same name. Just because.

 

[tony]

I hear there is a decent home for sale in Montana

I'd take the payments, MSNBC I think did a break down for all 50 states after taxes.
You're losing about half the money taking a lump payment. Yeah, I know, I know.
But I want it all!

 

[AlphaK9]

1. Order guac on every Chipotle order.
2. Wear a brand new pair of underwear and socks every day.
3. Get the Colorado pinstripes buffed out of the sides of my truck.
4. Use an old school Motorola Razr for calls and texts and a Microsoft Zune for music, never touch a smartphone again.
5. When the optional tip screen pops up on non-service related transactions, press “No” even harder while making uninterrupted eye contact with the employee.

This is very well thought out. Nice.

I hope anybody who wins and is a regular kind of guy doesn’t lose perspective after winning that kind of money…

I used to guide fishing and I’d often overhear clients talking about a lot of different topics. The guys who flew in on their private jets always had some pretty entertaining conversations, and once two of these kind of guys (they lived in the same neighborhood in the same city and both flew in separately on their own Gulfstreams) were talking about wealth. They mentioned a friend they had in common that sold his business for a fortune, and one guy asked the other guy if he considered him wealthy… the guy says to the other guy that he didn’t consider anyone rich until you could live the way they do off the interest off the interest.

Blew my mind.

 

[TheTone]

Start a college scholarship, probably help a buddy out with his archery shop, try to find another small company or two to be an investor in, buy a nice house, buy a small but fun cabin somewhere near a lake and skiing for my wife, some new vehicles, hunt like cam Hanes does every fall with a couple good buddies

 

[KurtR]

I’m buying ground and building training ponds up here for summer and down south for winter. Making big enough so nationals could be held there. Then I’m traveling around running and training dogs and chasing ducks with said dogs.

 

[Steve300xcw]

Parents, and a few close friends will be taken care of.

My date on friday night will be a bit higher end than it is now

Shop doors will be closed and a bit more property will be owned.

Probly still drive the same POS pickup though.

 

[MuleyFever]

If I won this lottery I'd disappear to a mountain property somewhere. I'd come out for hunting trips. I'd also start funding wildlife habitat restoration projects and some wildlife bridges.
