I might buy myself a nice blue water sailboat but no way in hell I'm going to get crammed into one of those crowded cruise ships!

However, a semi-load of NOS Chevy/GMC pickups would be nice

I think the emphasis is on the chairs on the beach. Surely the gentleman would have arrived on his own Private yacht (or can ya rent 'em by the day?)

I'd want two truckloads like that. One to drive and one to look at

Well, then - need to go to some island where the cruise ships don't go.

If it were just me right now, I would seriously consider buying a used 30-40' sailboat and disappearing off over the horizon. At least I always start thinking that way around this time of year.

Ketch me if you can!

Re: $731,100,000

With that kind of money a guy could rent a Navy Destroyer to take him where he wants to go. Wouldn't have to worry about getting hijacked, that's for sure.

Or buy a slightly used Russian submarine and do your own hijacking

OK. I do buy tickets, once in awhile. But I will say that I stay from the really big ones, as California doesn't protect your privacy. A big prize like that could cause one to have to buy guard protection for one's family for the rest of their lives. Who needs that kind of hassle?

You could buy a 30,000 acre ranch in WY or MT and live out in the middle of it

Probably not quite the climate that you are used to, though ...

It snowed all day here today. My trash company sent me an email saying that they were suspending service until the storm cleared.

What a bunch of sissies. I drove just fine in the snow. No big deal. And I was in a 2 wheel drive Corvette. I didn't even need my 4X4.

They better give me a credit for not showing up. But I'm sure that they won't.

Re: $731,100,000

Now the single winning ticket holder of the $1B + mega millions draw has twice the winnings to deal with. Was that in Michigan or Minnesota? I heard that state allows the winners to remain anonymous. Is that correct? 2nd or 3rd highest pots. Wow.
Reckon they need an advisor? I can work from home.
