At the end of the workday today, one of my co-workers jokingly said that she probably wouldn't be here tomorrow because she was going to buy a winning lottery ticket on the way home. I know that great wealth brings great challenges with it, but let it be known that that's one challenge I would be willing to try out! :) Anyway, her comment got me thinking...
So here's what I would do if I won the lottery (assuming it was $1M or more), in no particular order:
1. Pay off our house and Adam's student loan.
2. Probably buy a bigger house in the hill country (nothing outrageous, just something with an awesome view).
3. Tithe at least 10% to our church.
4. Help out family and friends.
5. Throw a big fun party.
6. TOTALLY QUIT MY JOB - LIKE RIGHT AWAY - AND TAKE A NICE LONG BREAK AND SEVERAL VACATIONS!!!!!!!!!!
7. Find an trustworthy investment advisor to see how to stretch the rest as much as possible.
8. Make a sizeable donation to one or more charities.
9. Of course, make sure to save for our children's future.
Such a nice dream!!! In the meantime, we'll keep plugging away, working hard, saving, and being thankful for God's daily provision!
