    I would of went to work as well. I would have bought the black 2006 stypeR on the lot (great deal on the car since i work there and they would make no damn money off of it).
    Then flick off the GM, tell him i quit. Do an insane burnout/donut in the parking lot and dip out.

    Anyone whos ever won has had to pay taxes. It sucks even more though cause they had to pay double taxes. Original was $365 mill, that got taxed down to like $170 something mill, and then divided between the 8 of them, and then everyones $22 mill got taxed down to $15 mill.

    you could live extremely comfortably with the interest that would accumulate in a savings account. very easily more than 500k a year for doing absolutely nothing.
