i think I'd try my hand at creating a charitable foundation to benefit my community. That kind of money would make a material difference in benefiting a lot of people.

4. Have a Platona giveaway every hour, on the hour for the duration of the Vegas gathering
5. Fly all moderators and spouses/significant others to the GTG. All other expenses comped

1. Financial Advisor / Lawyer / Pay off any debts or mortgates. Make sure we're setup so we never have to work if we don't want to.
2. Move someplace nice where people have zero clue who I am. Live fairly modestly. I don't need anything too big. Perhaps 2 or 3 other low maintenance places we can travel around and stay for parts of the year (Ireland.. somewhere in Co Galway, perhaps someplace in Vermont and the Carolinas
3. Help my immediate family / my wife's immediate family out so they don't need to work.
4. Enjoy random acts of anonymous kindness and also donate a bunch to charities.
5. Buy another Rolex :)

Final answer.....stick with 5 more Corgis....
