What would you do if you had about 600 million dollars?

The Mega Millions jackpot for July 29, 2022 was over 1.2 billion dollars. Let’s say, rounding off, the government took half in taxes. I know “half” is not accurate but this is hypothetical, so let’s say half gone in taxes. If you won the jackpot, and therefore had half for yourself, so let’s say 600 million, what would you do with it?

Personally, I think for an average person in an average dwelling to have that much money, you’d be a target and I don’t think I would want that much. Life would change and not necessarily in a good way. I would like a jackpot but not that much. I’d love to be able to take care of friends and family and donate to some animal welfare organizations.

I didn’t play, because I was going to buy a ticket or two and then forgot.

What about you? If you won all that money, what would your plan be?
