Remember a couple days ago when I visted Taylor Creek? Well, that's on the California side of the lake. So...being in California and all....well, I bought a lottery ticket. Just one. The chances of winning are so slim, there really is no point to buy more than one. Just checked it...didn't win. Darn, guess I really do have to go to work tomorrow. Not that I really expected to win, but there's always that ever-so-miniscule glimmer of hope. I mean, people DO win occasionally. It COULD happen.
So during those 3 days while you wait to find out if you're a winner...it's kinda fun to fantasize about what you'd do with all that money. You have to be careful, though, lest you really depress yourself after you don't win. So what would I do? Boring, practical things aside (like paying bills and paying the mortgate, etc.) here are my top 3 fun things:
1. Give a big chunk to my parents and sister.
2. Buy a house on Lake Tahoe - it can be a small house or a shack, really... just a house where my dogs can go swimming out the back door.
3. Bust out the passport and TRAVEL! And you're all invited!
What would you do?
I was told once you can buy yourself back from the military.. pay off the remainder of your service, and be honorably discharged early. I don't know if that's true.. but I'd certainly check into it.
ReplyDeleteI'd go for that house on Tahoe too. :)
ReplyDeleteI am already planning to visit the Tahoe shack. If by shack you mean "Vacation House With a Wing for all the Zabs."
ReplyDeleteTravel for sure. House with a backyard. New camera equipment. Biggest, longest lens David wants.
Sigh. Travel... I want to go to Europe for a couple of years.
