Actually, I'd use the money to become a real life Guy Grand, who dedicated his wealth to the execution of elaborate pranks in the book and movie The Magic Christian. One of my favorite books ever. The movie has Ringo Starr playing his adopted son.
I'd probably get bored eventually, but I can't imagine the hijinks I could pull with that kind of money. Off the cuff, paying for an art installation of 30,000 helium filled blow up sex dolls to be tied by rope around Chicago would be a great place to start

Been watching all these fake ticket pranks on YouTube. What's really funny are the people who act like winning low amounts like <$100,000 will solve all their problems, they wont have to work anymore, take a bunch of vacations, etc. Hell even a million dollars isn't enough to necessarily allow you to stop working.

I will make my own commercial and buy 90 sec air time on Super Bowl.
It will be a video of me just staring at the camera.

did anyone catch my stats based on the desire to swim like scrooge and fund NASA?
re: scrooge:
the amount of gold $540 million could buy is a 31" cube weighing 10 tons.re: donating to NASA:
all to NASA would last about 10 days. budget in 2010 was $18.69 billion....strange how little $540 million is when you begin to think in extremes.
- Don't think a 10 ton cube of solid gold can be classified as little.duckseason
- it is compared to swimming in a vault of gold coins 90ft deepalbums

Math:
A $540 million jackpot, if taken as a $390 million lump sum and after federal tax withholding, works out to about $293 million. With the jackpot odds at 1 in 176 million, it would cost $176 million to buy up every combination. Under that scenario, the strategy would win $117 million — less if your state also withholds taxes.
