Today's NON TTC Topic - 9/21
If you won the lottery (a VERY large jackpot) - what are the first 5 things you'd do with it?
1. Pay off EVERY debt we have. 2. Pay off EVERY debt my parents' have. 3. Pay off EVERY debt my brother has. 4. Complete our baseball trek (we've seen 14 stadiums in 6 years - we're trying to get to them all). 5. Take the trip of a lifetime with my family (all of Europe).
****PLEASE NOTE - this assumes that we are all pregnant already (so paying for fertility treatments doesn't count).

Re: Today's NON TTC Topic - 9/21
If we are assuming it was a VERY LARGE SUM this is what i would do (hope my DH thinks the same ) 1. Pay off all of our debt- Mortgage, Credit Cards, Car, Student Loans, etc. 2. Pay off my parents debt (and sister if I could) 3. Invest! (in whatever my DH thinks we should, I have no clue in those things)
4. Build a new construction home- and pay it all off 5. Go to Italy- 6 star all the way!!!
MAIN POINT---Have NO DEBT AT ALL!!!! I would still work ( I mean it) just I would not get myself stressed. (maybe if it was really alot of $$ though, only part time!!!
OH!! TO DREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. pay off my student loans (yuck) 2. buy a home for us 3. set up some kinda nice retirement thing for my parents (including freeing them from any debt they have, etc. maybe my sisters too cuz i'd be mean if i didn't ). 4. quit my job and get one i actually enjoy without having to worry about any repercussions. 5. set up a nice retirement thing for us.

Re: Today's NON TTC Topic - 9/21
Day late and a dollar short for this topic but....
1. pay off all our debt 2. Build our parentns their dream houses 3. give our siblings...$100K each (if they run out and spend irresponsibly, not our problem) 4. Being that we are pregnant (not really but we can't spend on fertility) , put away college/trade school tutition, but not tell our child. Teach them how important a post high school education is, whether trade school or college. 5. Go on an amazing vacation...start off driving from NY to California in a nice motor home, once we reach California, fly to Hawaii, hang in Hawaii for a bit, then off to Alaska so I can dog sled. Then we will purchase an "apartment" on the owner only cruise ship that we saw on Travel Channel...and only hit land for holidays.

If you won the lottery (a VERY large jackpot) - what are the first 5 things you'd do with it?
1. Pay off all our debt. 2. Buy very large property (by the water) and build homes for each family member so we are all within a golf cart's trip away. 3. Pay off parent's debt. 4. invest 5. travel
****Can I just say....Davenjess (Jess)...thanks for doing these "off topic's" They are so much fun!!!

Re: Today's NON TTC Topic - 9/21
Well the 1st thing I would do non $$$ related is quit my job. (maybe go down to PT, but Id doubt it)
1. Buy our dream home. 2. Pay off all of our debit/student loans as well as whatever debt our families may still have 3. Put away college money for DC#1 and future DC. 4. Purchase a vacation home somewhere and go away with all of our friends/family 5. Give 10% to church
