  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

i do love how the govt gets half or more of the winnings... for doing NOTHING. they didn't even help buy the lottery ticket that you bought with post-tax money. there's probably a ticket tax. gimme gimme gimme! ;) you can believe they will come for the other half asap if they could.

but still, for someone like me, with $100,000,000 free and clear? oh baby. i would have to unplug the phone, hire a specialty firm to figure some things out... hah. chances of that happening are slim and none :)

but if you do win, do not sign nothing until you have lawyers, accountants, and body guards. unplug the phones. do not tell anyone. watch the movie "lottery ticket" as a primer of the crap that can go wrong ;) "I NEED THAT TICKET"

run forest! run!

sucker's game for the most part, unless you win, then everyone else is a sucker :D
 
You all are making me wish I played. :) It's fun to dream, but I think I'll work my butt off, pay my debts, and eventually retire on that plot of land I want in the middle of nowhere.
 
If I win I am going to buy kabar, temporally end all production, have them make a fullsize 1/4" thick BK2 Folder in 1095 and S30V and when its done and in peoples hands ill let them get back to normal production.
 
Man, youse guys are harsh. Let me tell ya what I would do, if we are keeping it pointed at Kabar.

First up, I would build two new factories in the US, one on the West Coast, say in the Oregon area, and one smack dab in the middle of the US, say Kansas or that region. Hire good, honest, American workers, and put them to work making Kabar knives. Give the factories over to Kabar with the understanding that the one in the middle I get to keep creative control over, and it will primarily churn out Becker knives and designs, as well as Toooj stuff (cause we want to butter him up so he comes over there to make new goodies), all so long as I get a share of the profits. Hire some of you knuckleheads to make the things, have pretty lax policies about employee use of the grinders after work hours, and then go buy out Ethans neighbors (we can't stand them anyways) and get to work on the Becker Barracks. Cause we are legion, and we need a proper barracks for when we go visit uncle E. Also I would buy Ark lunch, cause I told him if I won the lottery, I totally would.

Click to expand...

Can I be the Director of Beer and Strippers for the West Coast Factory? My salary can be $100 a year as long as you pay my business expenses...
 
Me, I would just toss the dog and pack in the truck and disappear and figure it out as I go. I don't have any family worth a crap to gift any too so I figure I'll hire a bunch of people with signs to stand outside their hovels and laugh at them for a couple weeks.
 
Now that i think about it while having a smoke and drinking a fine black and tan, Besides the two chicks at one time, I would commision Ethan to make me a knife...a one off at first, then run it full production.
