someone in Australia just won 70 million dollars on the lottery!

can you imagine?

seventy fricking million dollars!!

the prize winner hasn't claimed their prize yet...

if it were me, i'll give half to charity, quarter to my family and leave the rest to myself.

but first i'd learn about investing it and research the charities. and i'll be like Warren Buffett. don't need a fancy house, just an adequate one.

the median house price in Australia is about 550,000 AUD.
but, i'd like to live in Tokyo.
the average house price there is $325,000 USD. but it's $1.8 million dollars to live in Shibuya.
or Hawaii. a house in a nice place would be about $1.7 million USD.
learn how to take nice photographs and figure out how to use Photoshop.
eat good food every day.
and do a lot of travelling.

the average price of a people-moving car here is about 50,000 AUD.
i would like to drive on the auto-bahns in Germany.
the car prices there are about $36,000 USD.
but rather than driving, i would like to do the trekking tour of Mont Blanc.

interestingly, $70 million isn't enough to buy a home at Kensington Palace Gardens, because the average house costs about $85 million.

i guess it would be like peanuts to a billionaire... like Warren Buffett.
