The Lottery!!!

Posted over 2 years ago

Ok you Mogers in need of trivial questions about your worldy desires, I have found the topic for distraught arguments that go about the lines of weather or not you want the cheddar goldfish or if the new pretzel flavor has peaked your intrest enough to be considered for purchase.The topic of course is...IF YOU WON THE FREAKIN LOTTERY WHAT WOULD YOU DO?Well in my own personal opinion if I win the power ball (midwest's big jackpot ticket of choice) I would throw a music festival. I would find and call all of the bands I could think of and ask how much to borrow them for 3 days. I would then proceed to pay them $10,000 more for being awesome enough to accept my offer of grandeur. the way It would roll out as is a $5 ticket gets you 1 night of musical ecounters of the third and magnificent kind. I would find a field of appropriate proportions and have two stages. One on each side of the feild facing each other. I would throw all of the bands names in a hat and draw the night before for set times. One of the stipulations for the bands would be to have to hang out with the fans and watch all of the shows in the crowd. Force them to be on the same level as the average kid. One band would perform on one stage while the next band sets up on the opposite stage, as soon as band A finnishes band B will begin playing. All the way till the vast fireworks display that would mark the end of the evening. I would call this the Power Ball (like the elegent extravaganza that royalty throw down there shenannigans) not to be confused with the name of the lottery frachise. Aside from that I would buy an appartment building and let all my friends live there for free. After I build the waterslide from the top floor to the bottom floor.

FistFightForRoyalty says That's a damn good plan. I must say, I admire your dream of bringing the crowd and the bands together for one night of mayhem and excitement. Personally, I would use the obscene amount of money to start teen centers in every medium sized town/city I could find that was lacking in the musical scene department. The teen centers would have a musical and artstic aim during the day and during the night they would double as concert venues for the local scene. Thus giving musicians, artists, promoters, bored kids, and sound technicians a scene to destroy the world in. Each of these centers would mostly be run by the kids who frequent and use them. And then I'd start a small college where you get in based off of desire to learn. Which I would teach History at for free. you have interesting thoughts, -alex

NinjaSquirrel says Interesting idea, not only does it cut down on teen violence and such things but it also serves as a place to gain valuable exsperience in feilds that are extremely hard to get in to. Kudos and salutations to you and your logic. Will Smith said it best... "Parents just don't understand!"

Terry Staunton says If I had a million dollars... I'd spend a quarter of a mil on loose women, A quarter of a mil on hard liquor A quarter of a mil on illicit, mind-expanding drugs As for the last quarter of a mil, I think I'd probably just squander that...

lemontwist says Depends on how much I win. :) Pay back my debts, buy my parents a new car and house repairs, go on vacation somewhere, but save mostly all of it for rainy days. Oh yeah, and expand my vinyl collection and go to lots of concerts. :)

JiXXerJeFF says Damn good ideas! I would have a spending frenzy of course, but I wouldn't pay off my debt; I would just set it all up for minimal payments automatically deducted from my account so I can build my credit up to phenom status. Then I would go to school and do nothing but learn. I would learn everything from architecture to finance (so I could invest my money better and make a fucking empire), music everything (instrument learning- starting off with bass guitar, electric, drums, singing lessons- try to have them given by Dave MuthaFuckin' Grohl) and bits and pieces of everything. Internships at Large Investment Firms... yeah... For the majority of the money I would place into an interest bearing account to where I would accrue a million dollars/ year. That would be what I would live on. Of course my frineds would be lavishly enthralled in riches as well. And then build a golf course that is PGA status. It would have a luxury hotel nearby as well as apartments. I would then start investing into more Real Estate in the area as well. I would then host celebrity golf charity classic tours to where all of the proceeds go to the kick ass TeenCenter FistFightForRoyalty came up with. I could go on for days. I have demised a new saying that explains my addiction to MOG; "I'm in love with the MOGgers..."
