1. Paris. In a heartbeat. nt

[NV Whino]

2. You betcha.

[charlie and algernon]

6. aw, you're gonna move next door to the Palins?!

I hope you fill your lawn with Dem lawn signs.

[NV Whino]

9. I won't be there, but I'll make sure to provide the signs

Enough to fill every yard in Wasilla. Maybe even Russia, too. Just in case she glances in that direction.

[clarice]

3. Don't let the door..... nt

[hollysmom]

4. If a miracle occurs and I win and miricle it would be since I did not buy a ticket

I would probably buy multiple homes for different things in different places. beach / snow / lake / flowers

[DFW]

5. My wife wants to stay where we are

And so we do. Of course, to you, we're already in "another country."

If we suddenly had an extra gazillion, maybe we'd buy a small apartment in New York City, since one of our daughters lives there, as does a cousin and my sister. But maybe not. We just don't see putting up with the paperwork of maintaining a residence where we don't reside. Let the McCains and the Romneys of the world have that headache.

*as for Paris--I have to run down there once a week for work anyway. I don't need to put up with the French bureaucracy any more than I do now.

[NightWatcher]

7. I'd have homes all over. Brugges, Köln, Rotterdam....

[mainstreetonce]

8. Homes

One on a nice warm island. One in the beautiful mountains and a condo in NYC.

[mnhtnbb]

10. I think I'd have a nice flat in London and a home on a tropical island.

But since my 10 ticket play yielded only $4.00 for matching the powerball on one ticket,
I won't be buying any new homes any time soon.

[Chellee]

11. Consider it?

Being able to move out of Indiana is the reason I buy lottery tickets. Just one though, I figure I'll be able to move sooner if I don't spend the moving money on lottery tickets. LOL

[Coventina]

12. I would do both.

I'd go back to my roots in the Pacific Northwest, and I'd get dual citizenship in St. Kitts.

With the amount of $$ available in this Powerball, I'd move as much of my family with me as wanted to come.

Then, I'd travel. A lot.

Then, I'd set up a foundation to start giving the money away.
I don't need a billion dollars, but many others could be helped with parts of it.

[Jamaal510]

13. I'd move

to Canada if a Republican becomes president again. Otherwise, I'd stay put and use some money to visit a friend in Ukraine.

[Number9Dream]

14. Move, plus an RV and/or cabin cruiser

Not only would I move to a warmer climate (Georgia? Hawaii? Tahiti?), but I'd love to do some traveling in a really nice RV or yacht.

[kentauros]

15. I'd move to New Zealand, or Australia

Preferably NZ, and the island of Waiheke. It's New Zealand's Hawaii

[gvstn]

16. For a few years now, I have thought that Australia looks like a beautiful country.

The clear skies and night views are simply amazing.

The big bugs are scary but in an urban setting they are probably manageable. But one look at their skies makes you want to live there.

[kentauros]

17. The only "deterent" is that Australia is becoming more conservative.

Of course, their brand of conservatism is liberal by our standards. Yet, I've known a few Aussies that were as narrow-minded as our crop of conservatives.

NZ has the same problem with their National Party, and I hear complaints about their disregard to the environment from my GF from time to time. From the looks on Wikipedia of their last election, National got almost double the votes of their Labour party.

Now, if you're afraid of snakes, there are none in NZ

[hunter]

21. They're getting hammered by global warming, and it will probably get worse.

I know where I'll go if everything turns to shit, but I ain't telling.

My wife and I would have been a very affluent couple if we'd had any sense and left the U.S.A. when we were young.

But here we were when shit fell out of the sky and the U.S.A. medical industrial complex left us with a negative net worth, living paycheck to paycheck. And then we sent our kids to college...

I graduated from college without any loans. One could actually work and keep ahead of college expenses then.

My kids had scholarships and they worked too, and still we all had to take out student loans.

[Beaverhausen]

22. I love Australia and have some friends there

Took a two week vacation there in 2008. Sydney, Red Center and Port Douglas. Loved it.

[KamaAina]

18. I had my eye on a college campus outside DC.

With enough left over to endow it.

[mrmpa]

19. Definately..........

I would like homes in Ireland, Florida, California and Colorado.

[Blue_In_AK]

20. Nope.

I love Alaska.

[bif]

23. Canada. Northern Italy. Southern France.

[davidpdx]

24. I already live overseas, so I would stay here

And I wouldn't be able to buy a lottery ticket unless I had my mom do it for me.

[Ino]

25. I'd move to Paris...

or Kauai, or Portland, OR. Maybe all three!

[a la izquierda]

26. Montreal, Mexico City, or Madrid.

Without giving it a second thought. I might just do it without winning the lottery.

[GOLGO 13]

27. Has to be within a short driving distance to

A good liquor store, a outstanding Italian tailor, a well stocked tobacconist that makes custom briar pipes & his own blended tobaccos.
