What completely frivolous thing would you buy...

[DLgal]

...if you hit a big lotto jackpot?

I know lots of people would buy a new house, or would travel the world, but what one specific item would you buy simply because you COULD, even though you don't really have a use for it?

Mine would be a McLaren or Lamborghini Sian sports car, for my 14 year old autistic son who LOVES fancy sports cars. I don't think I'd even know how to drive one of these cars, but it would be awesome to just have one.

A racehorse.

Well, a quality racemare. And I'd leave some in reserve for some respectable stud fees. And then I'd raise babies out of her. And race them. In colors I designed.

An art museum. Possibly a touring collection of art, so all of my travel would be tax write-offs. The art would be made by friends and family and I would have Sotheby’s auction off the pieces from one family member to another. We’d celebrate the sales and purchases with lavish dinners hosted in private dining rooms with expensive caviar and Diet Dr Pepper because I’m rich.

If it was just one thing, I think a tricked out greenhouse. But if i could go with more than 1 thing - it would be to move somewhere I wouldn't need a greenhouse.

I would never do laundry ever again.

New underwear, socks, shorts/pants, shirt, coat, shoes, etc every day.

My very own dance studio and a private dance teacher!

1969 Ford Bronco, aqua with white interior.

 

[xjillianpaige]

I’m so boring. I’d just want a house and a new car and my student loans paid off. And I would want to travel. Maybe a 10 day stay at WDW at a deluxe resort. That feels frivolous to me haha

 

[SM1992]

I've always wanted an original Ansel Adams photograph....

I might buy a viral video. Subject TBD.
Maybe a lobbyist. Again, subject TBD.

Skip the middle man and purchase a politician directly.

Skip the middle man and purchase a politician directly.

Shhhh! I’m pretty sure that’s illegal

 

[Frozen Canuck]

I have a list a mile long of things I would buy if I won the lottery, but I think I would have to say, a cavoodle puppy. We have gone back and forth for ages about getting a dog, but aren't sure if it would be practical for us in our current living situation. If money were to allow that to change, a puppy would make its way closer to the top of the list.

Only if your poor!

Sharks with lasers

You'd probably first have to buy a mad scientist who could make that happen.

My very own dance studio and a private dance teacher!

Soon as I read this I started singing it ...

As for me, cruise around the world in a large suite. I cannot do a private ship, I need people around. Even if I don't interact with the majority of them.

Oh, like that The World Cruise ship? That might be a great idea for that first year after winning...lay low and be untraceable.

A pooper scooper service and a history museum. The one our city has doesn't do our city's history justice.

I'd buy a big land reserve off the Appalachian Trail in NJ, whatever $20mil could get.
