What would you do if you won the lottery?

[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

[shatterjure]

1. Quit school
2. Buy the most powerful gaming PC on the market
3. Buy advanced digital art equipment like the ones they use in animation studios
4. Give my parents tons of money then buy myself an apartment
5. Spend the rest on games and essentials like food

[carloswebcomic]

• Pay off the mortgage.
• Buy a smaller house (less cleaning and maintenance!) and rent old house.
• Quit work.
• Buy a Cintiq.
• Get an insanely powerful gaming PC with dual GTX 1080s (or Vega).
• Stash 50 million in the bank to live on the interest.
• Donate 5 million to Sydney City Mission.
• Take the missus to every fancy restaurant we've always wanted to try.

[VermillionWorks]

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.

Ditto, but add a bit of travelling to that list. =P I'd also give a big chunk away to good causes because jesus I have so much money what else can I do with it

[jayorten]

1. Pay off my debts.

2. Buy an entire swimming pool of rubber duckies with built in lazer vision.

3. Give the rest to some orphans in India.

[WakaXO]

I would move to a warmer climate, don't get me wrong Canada is great, but my health is better in warmer places. I have family in the Dominican Republic so I would probably move there. I would probably move my mom down with me too, her healths not the best anymore either 😅
I would pay off my debts and work on my comic/art full time... sigh a girl can dream... 😍
Oh and of course give a chunk to charity, it's important to pay good fortune forwards 👍😊

[TomSawyer]

1. Finally go to Japan
2. Buy loads of Manga and Games
3. Get a place to myself
4. Eat whatever I want
5. Hire a maid to take care of everything
6. Complete my Comic

After I'm done maybe I'll donate the rest idk

[punkarsenic]

lbr at least 50% of that money'd be needed to get me a modest flat in my own city these days

Then I'd save it all so I don't need to worry about my comic bringing in any money, and can focus on my work in peace. I'd probably also splurge a little on Broadway tickets.

[miseryhunting]

1. Pay off my parents debt.
2. Buy my sister a house.
3. Buy a cottage in the wood for me.
4. Donate to charity.

To be honest, I don't feel like I am meant for the kinda life with lots of money. I LIKE beating the odds; I LIKE achieving my dreams. What's the point if I can have anything?

[Shanny8]

1) Take care of all my debts. Start me some type of retirement fund- something to generate money for when I cant physically work anymore.

2) Move to the Pacific Northwest. I onno- I've always had this thing where I wanted to move to Seattle(or near); and possibly move to a rural area away from people, but easy access to the city if I need to.

3)Donate to worthwhile charities & causes.

4) Get myself adequate medical care, so that I wont fall apart before my expiration date(whenever that is...a little preventative maintenance can go a long away). Def quit the day gig- every moment that I'm not sitting down doing my own art, I'm actually devoting time to my own health. I just find it a joke how companies want to start this whole "health movement" nowdays, trying to promote exercise & health- but dont pay enough for people who have certain health issues to get the medical treatment they need to get better- or even pay enough for people to live a better lifestyle(i.e.- eat healthier).

and a well-lit studio

DEFINITELY! That's one of the things I'm trying to do now- get a place with some space for me to set up a studio area. Arting out of my bedroom sucks(only advantage is I'm near the bed when I get too tired to art).

Buy a Cintiq.

Definitely. Right now I just cant see dropping over a grand on a Cintiq...

[jessicasurline]

Any lottery over 1 Million would be able to grant my wishes:

• Pay off loans - Student loans for my husband and I + Credit cards and all the money my parents and family have given to help get me through college
• Buy land and build a home - I would love more than anything to build a cob house in the middle of nowhere! It would make a beautiful art studio as well!
• Donate to the Venus Project - I truly believe that if more people could really see what the Venus Project is about, we as a world could coexist better and be able to pursue our dreams and goals much more readily. https://www.thevenusproject.com/

[69Michi]

Depend on how big the lottery is but if it's 300 millions- I'm set for life son ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
Here is my list of what I would do:
1- Quit my job to focus all my free time on school and art
2- Buy a new computer
3- Buy a good house to settle down
5- BUY ALL THE COMMISSIONS FROM ALL THE LOVELY ARTISTS IN THE WORLD
4- ... Put the rest in saving account to watch the money grows

[respheal]

Doing some quick calculations, I could retire right now and live very comfortably for the next 75 years with 5mil. I'd first pay off my student loans, pay off my parents' debts, buy a house, quit my job until I finish at least the three comics I have planned, and then probably pick up another job to sate my workaholic tendencies. Any extra would probably be thrown at random stuff at a whim.

[Louistrations]

Haha, it might help me to stop having panic attacks for starters.

[Puppisama]

300 mill... wow.
1) Get away from my country and go somewhere else, probably Europe.
2) Get 10 Corgis
3) Get 10 premium houses for my 10 Corgis, they will live like kings.
4) Study Arts/Animation/Php Everything I want without worrying about depts.
5) Create my own animation company.
6) Go to space because why not, also with my Corgis.
And the list goes on.
All of this after finish my career of course, I'm just a year and a half from now.
