The Powerball lottery is up to $1 billion tonight. If you won it, what would you do?

I mean, I have won the lottery, multiple times...

But if I won the Powerball Jackpot? Honestly, I probably would hire a financial planner but not change my day-to-day. I like my life and already have plenty of money.

Obviously I'd have to tuck a bunch into my kids' 529s because they would now be completely ineligible for financial aid.

With the cost of university in the USA, it'd probably be cheaper to pay for them to go to university in another country.
