I fully intend to win the 1.4 billion dollar Powerball jackpot this coming Wednesday. But just in case something goes awry I wanted to provide you with some suggestions on productive and enjoyable ways of spending your good fortune.
Number One: Set up a family foundation with half of your windfall. You will be able to contribute approximately 5% of the principle every year until the end of time. So if you put 500 million in a foundation, you will be able to donate an astonishing 25 million dollars each year to various charities.
Number Two: Buy your own cruise ship. You can buy one for a cool 25 million dollars or so by clicking HERE.
Number Three: Purchase a new U.S. made car. How about this one-of-a-kind carbon fiber Tantrum. It will set you back about 1 million dollars.
Number Four: By your own island. If you win over a billion dollars - the biggest recorded lottery win ever - you will become a public figure. If you want some respite, please consider buying your own private island by clicking HERE. The island in the photo will set you back less than three million dollars.
Number Five: Unlist your phone number. If you win the estimated 1.4 billion dollar jackpot it might be wise to pay the $1.75 per month it takes on average to unlist your phone number. Otherwise your third, fourth, fifth and 100th cousins will be in touch.
I wish you great success in assuming the burden of becoming a billionaire.
