$$$ Winning the Lottery $$$
This week in my YahooGroup ginger asked, "If you won $250 million in the lottery and had to spend it all in one year without doing one altruistic thing what would you spend it on?"
I thought this was an interesting question and one that can really stir our imaginations if we let it. I realize many people think they are too giving to answer without listing altruistic things but I'm guessing most of us can let our imaginations run a bit wild if we try.
If I won and had to be totally selfish, I would:
Travel all over Western Europe, (stopping to meet all my friends there ;) Then travel to Australia, Hawaii, and come to think of it all over the US. Canada - ok, fine - a worldwide tour. First class all the way. I want champagne and strawberries and cushy seats. I'd have an entourage - someone to carry my luggage, a secretary to handle my appointments, etc.
I'd have private concerts done for me by Andrea Bocelli, Josh Groban, Sarah Brightman, Enrique Iglesias, Christopher Williams, Elton John, Bob Dylan, Nine Inch Nails, Lifehouse, Martina McBride, The Stones - that list could go on forever.
I'd take my friends and family with me for all of this. I don't consider that an altruistic act because it would be no fun to do this alone.
When I was done traveling, I'd build a really big house with tons of bedrooms and then I'd adopt ten kids. I'd hire nannies and housekeepers to do the icky stuff and then I'd get to do all the fun stuff with them. We'd go to amusement parks and pro ballgames. We'd have the best seats possible and get to meet all our favorite players. Best of all I'd be a mom.
I'd commission a series of books by F. Paul Wilson about a strong, sexy woman who unravels the story behind all these mysterious happenings. Her name of course would be Julia (wink).
I'd have a second house - like this one. It would have a dungeon equipped with all my favorite things from my favorite toy site. (This particular site has very expensive but totally classy looking stuff.) I'd also have several things custom built as I have some ideas for things that I've never really seen.
HELP - by this time I've run out of money!!
If you let your imagination roll - spending $250 million totally selfishly is really possible! What would you spend your money on?

Just this weekend a german won 37 Million Euro...
To answer the question:
One thing I had in mind was founding a school, a kind of special university for men to be educated by women in becomming (more) submissive and for their behavier towards all kinds of women.
Women of all ages would teach in classes that train them in different aspects of the subject.
This school would be on a beautiful Iland (Chateau...)of course!.. very luxurious and not at all be like the OWK. There would be respect and real Loving FA. This would exist only for my pleasure, or say for the pleasure of HER- I would have the right to look at the progresses as I liked- and of course would participate beeing trained too...
So might be I would get to know Fumika Misato, Elise Sutton ... and all the others who run the shift of society .. and you of course too, and female teachers of former bloggs.- Sounds not very altruistic. I admit, there would be a bit of money left- ...maybe.
Shoes, shoes, shoes! Not just shopping for shoes, my own shoe factory that designs and manufactures shoes exclusively for my girlfriends and I.
Anne Rice, here’s 10 million dollars. Now write an erotic novel exclusively for myself and my darling husband. Extra steamy please. He’ll be the one getting the paddlings.
My own vineyard.
Thanks so much for a great blog and website. Your clarity of thought and non threatening manner are much appreciated by those of us who are new at exploring different types of erotic play.
Being not very social I'd buy a secluded house buried in a forest or on top of a mountain, fill it with fine furniture. Most of the rooms would be filled with books so I could have my own private scholarly library.
Well, actually, I'd probably wind up doing whatever Alexandra wanted me to do with the money.
I'd buy a small, but established newspaper, and create or expand it's internet webpage to handle national exposure.
For staffers, I'd steal away the 25 best investigative news journalists and columnists money could buy, and tell them to go get the bad guys (their choice who and where) at any expense.
Unlike most newsgathering organizations, we'd pay for news, and steal it, if it's not nailed down. None of our stories will be copyrighted.
Then I'd sit back to enjoy the carnage and drink expensive scotch from a paper cup. My dogs would run free to terrorize the entire office, while I yelled a lot and corrected everybody's spelling.
I figure, attorney fees would eat up whatever's left....
I'd go RACING all around the U.S. with some of my closest riding buddies :) They would all have the year off too. We would have a mechanic(or 2) to take care of all the quads. We'd have spares of course. Race quads are 20 grand a piece but hey, I GOT a cool 250 MIL... ya know! NO Problemo. We'd have HUGE motor home to stay wherever we wanted. Go wherever we wanted. Also we'd have ALL the spare parts we needed to fix ANYTHING that possibly could go wrong. It would be the greatest time of our lives. Becuase each one of us truly does "Live to Ride". We are a hard wOrking bunch and dedicated so there is nothing else that would make us happier. Period!!!
After that, I would realize life sucks from then on out and commit suicide!
Hehe, J/K of course.
Dreamings fun but I still prefer reality.
Thank you all for sharing :) I really enjoyed reading them.
Susan, thanks for the kind words. I agree - shoes are wonderful. I would also pay for someone to design sexy shoes that did not hurt the feet!
I didn't remember to include my library Richard. You're right. I want an enormous room with wall to ceiling bookshelves filled with all my favorite titles and those I want to read but have not as yet found time to do so.
