What Would You do if You Won the Mega Millions Jackpot?

As someone who seldom gambles or buys lottery tickets, I found it interesting that this week something told me to purchase one at the local gas station where I potentially just got my first normal job in years at (see previous blog post here).  I had purchased this ticket before hearing the news that I was getting hired (pending a successful drug test), and I used a combination of numbers that were manifested from a visit I made to my social worker.  I was reminded of these numbers when I was doing my daily spiritual writing and reading session in a Starbucks and when I flipped the page of my notebook the sticky note happened to be on the next page with the numbers written on it.  Again, I never think to purchase a lotto ticket, but the moment I saw the numbers the first thing I said was, I should buy a lotto ticket with these.

What would I do if tonight, 5/8/26, I ended up winning the MegaMillions jackpot which is valued at 215 million?  To be honest, this would be hard to imagine, but if I did end up winning the jackpot, I honestly would still start my job with the gas station.  I think in order to truly understand how much money that would be, life changing money, I would have to really think long and hard on how I would go about spending and investing it, and to keep a low profile, working as a gas station attendant while I make these important decisions seems smart to me.  For the first few months, perhaps even the rest of 2026, I would not change my lifestyle at all and truly let my mind manifest the right decisions to bring forth the potential of what life changing money like that could do.  

I would brainstorm ways to spend it in the following categories of my life:

1).  Health and Wellness (physical and mental)

2).  Career / Business / Investing / Education

3).  Family / Relationships

4).  Leisure / Hobbies / Toys (fun stuff)

5).  Philanthropy / Giving Back

The most important of the 5 categories above will be and always has been (even if I hadn't given it the attention it required previously) physical and mental health and wellness.  I would utilize many of those funds to continue my journey towards awakening within myself a strong physical body and an even stronger mental fortitude towards attracting into my life the things I want. By focusing on what I want and believing that what I want it attainable (as I believe that winning this lottery ticket mega millions jackpot is attainable) I will continue to attract the people, circumstances, and events necessary to achieve the life I want for myself.  I think it would benefit me to attend certain mental health seminars and travel to various centers of learning to build my knowledge of the law of attraction, laws of deliberate creation, and laws of allowing.  

I would also want to find a personal trainer who would understand my desire to work out at my own pace, crafting a much longer term way of working out that I do not feel burdened by the intensity of the program they design and oversee for my physical health, including a nutritional health plan that is easy to follow.  With my physical and mental mind and body in perfect harmony, this would be the foundation in which all other decisions about the money allocation would be made from.  A place of physical and mental health mastery (although I will always remain a student of the game of life).

In terms of the second category of Career, Business, Investing, and Education, this will be important for the ability to create a sustainable pool of wealth that will continue to grow after receiving the mega millions jackpot.  There are many who squander the life changing money they receive from winning the jackpot, but I would choose to invest in areas where my money would grow over time and even provide a more passive income rather than worry about having it simply grow by inflation.  Stocks that pay dividends, high yield bonds, businesses that provide regular income like rental income in real estate, and other vehicles that ultimately are hands off in terms of managing them but hands on in terms of the cash you can take out of them.  I would want to learn more about these vehicles and interview multiple investment management firms to come up with a plan that makes sense for me personally.

In terms of the education side of this category, I would likely want to go back to school for additional education.  It might not necessarily be for investment or business education (but that certainly wouldn't hurt).  I think it would be to go back to school in order to learn something that I would find useful in creating a global podcast or twitch stream.  Perhaps some voice lessons, editing YouTube videos, managing nonprofit organizations, or other tools that would bring me a clear understanding of what is possible when wanting to bring the teachings of the law of attraction to the masses.  Yes, I still would want to do this even if I had all the money that I needed.  The manifestation of this wealth would not have been an accident.  All things are attracted to us, one way or another, and so these teachings that brought me the wealth and happiness that I have, would surely need to be told to those whom I care for, my community online, and those who I have yet to meet, the world at large.

The third category is Family and Relationships.  My immediate family that remains is my younger brother.  I love him so much even though we have had a bit of a turbulent past.  He always stresses about money and his lack of job opportunities in his field of Movies because in recent years, that industry has taken some big hits with AI and other workers union strikes that have occurred.  I would love to simply wipe out any debt that he has and provide some sort of passive income vehicles through my investments to give him some monthly income so that he doesn't have to stress as much.  Even though I know he has a big appetite for nice things, he will come to realize that money is not the issue that he is having, it is the thoughts about money and the negative stress that he is attractive that is his issue, and I am sure my way to helping him will hopefully lead to a much better relationship between us and between him and the money side of things.  

I would also extend the opportunity for us to go on a trip together, perhaps a spiritual trip, where we can connect on a deeper level than we have previously.  My brother has been one to enjoy traveling to places like Peru where he has taken a spiritual retreat to a monastery where they administered psychedelic drugs that opened his eyes to some things that he had blocks in before.  Doing something like that together might be fun and a way for both of us to heal certain parts of ourselves that need healing.  Things like that I would pay for without him having to worry.  I can see both of us in this new reality finally finding the love that we so desire by being brothers and shedding the layers of protection we put up against each other to protect us from harm.  Family is great, but it's also true that family can and does hurt sometimes, hence, we will focus on moving forward in harmony (even starting now).

The fourth category of Leisure, Hobbies, Toys, and Fun is probably the category that must of us really enjoy the most.  It is our opportunity to do and have the things that we always wanted in life but could never afford.  I think the biggest individual purchase that I would make would be a purchase of a home that had a basketball court and a pool.  Those two things are among my favorite things in this world.  I used to love playing basketball when I was younger with my church group and it stayed with me throughout high school and college.  To be able to have my own private basketball court to play basketball on with my friends who I would invite to visit would be amazing.  Then, after a hot and sweaty basketball session, being able to jump into a pool and go swimming would be absolutely fantastic.  The home itself would be large enough so have at least four bedrooms each with their own bathrooms.  The basement would be my man cave where I set up all of my streaming equipment and gaming accessories.  My future wife would have the kitchen she always wanted and any other amenities to make her life easier.  The bedrooms would be for my future children (I'd like to have 2 or 3).

In terms of a car, I currently drive a 2005 Honda accord with over 300,000 miles on it.  I would definitely want to get a new car, but I am not one to show off in the car department.  I would want to get a highly functional, fuel efficient, vehicle to get me from point A to point B and go under the radar in terms of my wealth in that department.  I believe cars are meant to be driven, not show cars, and so for me not putting myself in a situation to attract unwanted attention is exactly where I want to be.  If I did want to splurge however, I would 100% buy a Porche 911 Carera with Twin Turbo.  That was my father's favorite car, and I would love to be able to drive that and bring him spiritually along with me for a ride.

In terms of traveling, I would likely travel to Greece a lot with my newfound wealth and visit my remaining family there.  They are all getting older and I want to show them my love and be reminded of the love that my mother and father came from.  I would also travel to other locations like Asia, including China, Japan, and Southeast Asia, as I do find the Asian culture and women to be highly attractive and compatible romantic companions.  There are so many beautiful places in the world that I would love to see, and I would hire a travel agency and tour guide to let me know the best spots to visit in each of the places that I frequent.  I would write about the journey in my journal and blog and share the experience with those who care to read it.  I would even try to do some IRL streams to showcase the beauty of things, although that would most certainly expose the fact that I indeed won the lottery :).

The final category of Philanthropy and Giving Back is perhaps the most important category for the world at large, and for the purpose of leaving behind a legacy.  What I would like to do to give back is to create a nonprofit organization that helps people realize their true potential.  I would want to create a book that becomes a standard in modern mental and spiritual texts that gives people empowering tools and ways of thought that increases their quality of life, first internally then externally, as they apply the laws of attraction into their life.  I have always felt that I had something to share with the world, something to write, something to get off my chest so to speak.  The layman way that I am able to dissect complex topics and translate them into terms that anyone can understand will be the hallmark of this text.  

From the book will spawn in person seminars and classes that people can take in order to further their understanding of the teachings within.  It will be a summary of all of the life lessons I have learned, along with the sage advice of countless others before me, who ultimately achieved the things they wanted to achieve in life through applying some form of the law of attraction.  It will be the standard by which those who become aware of themselves can turn their current life of lack into a life of abundance.  From the book, seminars, classes, and other programs, even more great vessels of communication will be developed to bring these real-life stories to the masses through programs on television, on twitch, and beyond.  While many have done variations of this grand awakening, there is never a lack of content to create something new and from a different perspective.

To accomplish these things will take a massive amount of the right people, circumstances, resources, and events that will ultimately allow for the world to be made a better place.  While the world's problems are not our problems directly, we can influence the good in this world by influencing ourselves towards the path of joy.  By spreading joy in our own lives, we can influence others to have joy as well.  And this overflow of joy might be just the right amount of medicine that the world at large needs right now.  Enough people overflowing with joy can be a changing and guiding principle that heals the world and allows us to live in a more harmonious and sustainable fashion.  I look forward to investing and spending the money I earn from winning my Mega Millions tonight, and I hope you also win or attain all of the financial resources you wish to win as well.

Until next time,
