Let's say you won the lottery ...
How would you invest say $800k?
[...it is a smaller more winnable
lottery ;) ...]
I often ask this question to friends to show them that one does not have to wait to learn and have a strategy.
This time I'd like to ask the successful people in the group how they would invest that $800k.

Take the family on vacation...and then buy one or two rental houses (for cash or low leverage) in a growing market where prices have dropped 10-20%. Everyone has different goals; so, the strategy will vary accordingly. Or, stick it in a US Treasury or a CD and get 5% risk free.
