Hmmmm, a segway!
then I'd rice it out

Nah with 10,000,000 I'd probably invest a lot of it, then I would probably buy a lot of nice nice nice cars and build myself a race track and live out in the middle of nowhere so no one could bother me.

I'd probably give away 5 million of it to friends, family, charity etc. Use the rest to buy a house and resume life as normal for the most part.

I would put 8 mil in the bank and live off the interest.

The other 2 mil, I would buy a few cars and a house and resume buisness as usual

After taxes, about 6 mil would trickle down to me.

I'd put all of that in savings, and wait one year, with it in a savings account. This gives me a yearly income of 120000, on interest, assuming an interest rate of 2%. With that 120000, I'd buy a Cadillac Eldorado, Hummer H2, and a Seadoo Supercharged Jet-Ski, and a John deere X485.

I'd put the rest back in savings, and let that add to the existing 6mil, making me even more money. I'd eventually buy a house, and a Buick GNX. And I would start a car dealership.

i would probably put it into a savings account for awhile. I would probably buy a car first, nothing too fancy, just something to get me around. then i would move out into a condo on the waterfront, and buy a nice car.

And if my family needed help with anything financially, i would help them out.

Hmmm...

I'd pay off debts, buy a house for my parents, buy some cars (already posted my list in a thread similar to this), stick a lot in savings, donate some to churches and charities, then take a million and play with it, tour around the world (AF World Tour ), pay for university, then start a tuning shop.

Ten whole dollars? I'd say that's a pretty lame lottery.
