Unless it were more than $20 million, it wouldn't be worth it for me to even bother. The sad reality is with a baby like Tommy, we could exceed $2 million in just a year's time with open heart surgery and follow ups. There are many instances of parents meeting their $2 million insurance cap in just a couple of years and being left with no means to pay for their child's treatment. With him facing years of intervention, imagine how fast it would all go.

As much as the dream of winning the lottery sounds so fabulous with new houses and cars, I'm going to stay poor a little while longer. I'd hate to think I traded in fortunes for my child's life.

That would be the most amazing thing that could ever happen to me.
I would be able to start my life over again with no financial issues to stop me. If I won millions I would love to set up some sort of program that would help women that are stuck in a bad marriage due to financial issues like I am currently in. That would be so awesome.

I would buy a nice house not big with lots of land.
I would have my Mom move in on the land in her own house.
I would put away for the boys education if they want to go to college.
I open up a little spiritual store with self help books, candles, and etc.
I would open a pet shelter for dogs and other animals no one wants.
I would give to people that need it the most.
I would also invest some.
