I would want a new car. My husband would be investigating investment accounts. In the end, most of it would end up in an account of some kind waiting until we could retire. And no, winning a zillion dollars would not get him to retire early, because "you never know what's going to happen."

I would pay off my daughter's farm and buy my son some property.

I would go on a very long cruise, buy my husband a nice sailboat, and take all my quilt tops to an Amish woman for hand quilting!
