What would you do if you won the lottery?

[thomassayle]

lets say 300 million at least. Like would you pay artists to do your comic for example? or quit your job to further your career as an artist.

edit: maybe 100 mill is better?

[AnnaLandin]

300 million? Hooo boy, I would -

1.) Get rid of all my debts.

2.) Buy a comfortable place to live so I wouldn't have to worry about it, with enough space for the basic necessities (bed, kitchen, bathroom, etc.), and a well-lit studio - and a library. And a small tower, if I'm feeling quirky.

3.) Spend aaaaaaaallllll of my time working on my own projects, learning and trying new things, without having to worry about bills or pensions.

4.) Do my best to support other artists via Kickstarters, Patreon-campaigns, setting up some sort of grant for creative people, etc., etc.

[mariusthered]

300 million is too much. so once I have bought the things I need to live comfortably and not worry anymore about money, I would use the rest to help others who like me know what hardship is like.

[yvettegustafsson]

I'd get rid of the obvious stuff first - student loans, which is not very much so what to do with the rest?

I'd buy that castle that I spent all of last summer day dreaming about. I would live out my days in that castle. We would have horses, goats, chickens, and a wild life reserv with loads of plants and insects, birds and bats to make a contribution to nature. People could stay with us on the castle and join in on activities like making their own cider or grow their own plants or milk a goat. We would have afternoon tea for people who wants to get that castle feel but without the hard work and only for a sunday afternoon.

Stuff like that! Yep, that's it. It's my favorite day dream that I'll never live and I'm pretty OK with that.

I'd get my own studio! A room specifically designated for drawing. I'd chose the perfect location, somewhere where there's not a lot of city noise, where the light falls through the window just right. A special desk. A large supply of fine liners , ink, every shade of copic marker ever made, life time supply of good quality comic paper. A better PC, a A3 scanner, a professional tablet! I'd buy every series from every artist who has inspired me and have it on a large shelf next to my desk. This is my dream!

Oh and a Ferrari or something, I guess.

[Kura]

Pay bills.

Pay my parents bills and debt.

Just focus on writing and pay other people to draw and colour these comics.

Hired someone to do ****ing promotion because **** that bullshit.

Spoil the hell out of my pets I tell you what. Like, they gonna be more spoiled that my kids because I wouldn't want my kids to be annoying little shits that post pictures of their expensive junk on Instagram or wine that 'my life is the worst FML' when they don't get the right colour iPhone or car they asked for.

Aside from that mostly just try keep it around as long as possible so me and my family can live comfortably, nothing extravagant. Man... being able to afford groceries every week? Or just casually going to the movies instead of having to save up and set aside money for it. Dream life right there.

[SirHellsir]

a studio for animation, I would also like to do videogames and toys
And if I manage to develop a nice income out of those businesses, try to make the world a better place

[carloswebcomic]

I would buy a decent tablet. Not even a Cintiq or anything, just a tablet that's not held together with sticky tape and gum.

[Sanz]

I wouldnt tell anyone and continue to act poor.

[R.n.P]

I will invest in business I have ryt now which ryt now is only my comic production

[rainbowolfe]

1) Pay for the college of my dreams <3
2) Buy commissions from SO MANY people!!
3) I'd probably start paying for music o3o
4) Feed my sushi habit~
5) Maybe put some aside so I can buy a condo after college.
6) Spend more time on my art (working less hours)
7) Get a better tablet, jesus christ.

All my dreams would come true (/o3o)/

[SpavVy]

With that money, I would -

Buy a nice log cabin near the lake and away from people.
Make comics all day.
Get a nicer computer, the one I have is okay but it would be nice to have something that has enough RAM for me to play games on.
Travel to a few different countries.

[MylCreates]

Depends how much of that gets deducted due to taxes.
But if that was the money I got after all that then Id:

Get rid of debt.
Invest to keep a steady flow of money after.
Get a good tablet.
Have several worldly travels planned out (Maybe travel the world for 3 years or so)
Go to some good conventions around the states
Get a nice place to live (just something with a studio and garage I could build all my cosplays in and etc)
And probably some gifts for friends and family.

[Doubtcent]

Let's see. If I get that much money, first I gotta pay taxes. That equates to maybe around 200 Million.
With that, I'll purchase that studio apartment that I've been dreaming about, get a new car, and perhaps purchase a better computer and cintiq, just to get better at art.

Wait, I still have over 150 million left?
Then I'll definitely pay off the debts my family has, the same with my friends.
I'll keep maybe around 2 million in my personal savings,
then donate whatever else is left to charity.

What? I like the simple life. I just need enough to support myself and my family. The rest is just stress.

[JigokuNeko]

Buy a tiny house in a huge patch of land in the mountains. Fill it with lots of animals. Dogs, cats, chickens, pigs, you name it. Buy a Ferrari, paint it pink and fill it with Hello Kitty stickers so I can drive my rich ass to town in enraging style whenever I feel like it. Stay on my property forever, drawing and gardening and shooting people who trespass. Ah, sweet dreams~

[Noglastiaa]

BUY ALL THE INFOMERCHIAL STUFF!
PAY OFF ALL MY DEBT
GO TRAVEL THE WORLD TO MEET ALL MY FRIENDS
then finish my education and buy a nice town house in the city c:

[Thesleepypencil]

First- student loans. Get that DONE
Second - Buy myself a place. Something small. No more rentals for me. As well as proper furniture i only own a bed and a desk right now.
Third - upgrade my computer, more monitors, better tablet, and get those expencive programs i can’t afford now.
Fourth- use it to make prints, postcards, comics, and a couple booths at cons. Get started at actually selling my art.
and the rest probably won't exist anymore I'm a shop o holic.

[UrMom]

Lol like hell I'd let people touch my crap! I'd get a small, off the grid place in the mountains or woods, donate to the various charities I support; then put the rest in my savings and only take some out for necessities. I'd dedicate my days to art, fitness, and my cats.

Yeah, that'd be the good life.

[demthorshie]

300 million? That's a nice amount xD! I'd buy a decent sized plot of land somewhere, grow a fruit/vegetable garden and a house on it, quit commissions entirely and work on webcomics full time. At the very end, I would convert my webcomics in to animated movies. One could only dream I guess. xD

[purrlpankras]

Give some to family first. And maybe some friends.

Pay bills.

I'd like to support some artists I like too.

I'd rather have a have a small house. Just a normal house y'know. I don't want to walk 100 yards to the bathroom, there's gonna be accidents.

Upgrade all my ancient equipment. ...I've had my PC for like 5 years, still going strong but it can only JUST handle photoshop.
I don't think I'd upgrade my tablet... the modal is ancient so it doesn't have pressure sensitivity.

And probably save the rest idk
