I would take it all in cash. 20 dollar bills. Or convert it in British pounds as our money aint worth shit. Keep it all overseas.

I try to figure out a way to make less go to taxes. Trust fund or something similar.

Fuck it, I'd just take what was left and go to Switzerland. Most of it would end up in a bank account, the little leftover would get me a nice house on the Med, and life would be good.

After taxes, I would put it somewhere safe for a few years. I would pay for my friend Mike (he's really good with finances/investments) to go to the business school of his choice. After he graduated I would pay him to manage my fortune and live off of interest/dividends.

I would travel around Europe for a while, find my favorite place, and buy a house there. Once I become bored of Europe I will lobby Congress to remove penalties on states for lowering the drinking age below 21. If this works I will move back to my college town and open a fabulous bar. All profits (which won't be much - I want to make enough money only to avoid being sued for unfair business practices) will be donated to the community.

When I die I will leave 10 million to each kid and donate the rest to my school in hopes of getting something cool named after me.

-make sure to live off the money for the rest of my life (financial planner)
-buy a nice apartment (house can come later when I'm married)
-buy a car garage so I can store my cars
-bmw m5 (smg)
-bmw m3 (6MT)
-nissan gt-r
-pay off everything (tuition, bills)
-donate to lots of charities and foundations, and to people in need
-help my parents, brother, his wife, my gf, my 2 very close gal friends pay off everything and buy them whatever they want
-build a server with multiple SSDs for boot and LOTS of 1.5TB drives for storage
-buy lots of laptops and computers
-donate to multiple med schools (a little bit easier to get in)

its all I can think of right now...damn class (nutritional science) is way too boring..

but if you burn 1 million, you would still have an even number.

Wouldn't it make sense to burn just 1 dollar?

Otherwise, maybe you should go for a prime number .....

'175' is not even. Did you go to an F-school or just fucking sail on the failboat with the grammar nazi elite troops?

I thought we won $176,000,000?

175,000,000 % 2 = 0, so FAIL.

I'd build a combination micro-brewery and restaurant on an ocean going river boat and cruise the coast of New Zealand while brewing beer and feeding people.

i would take the money to africa and high thousands local workers to put together a huge pyramid over 20 years in dedication to myself. It has to be made the old fashion way through hand laid giant stones and will last thousands of years so generations from now, people will experience the huge monument dedicated to me.

Thinking bout this, I'd give $10 mill to my parents, sister, cousins.
Keep $5mill for myself.
Reenter school (I dropped out), get my bachelors.
Set up a foundation and donate the rest.

Get this all in pennies. Then sell the copper.

IIRC it costs more to make pennies then the actual worth.
