First and foremost, I would take a much deserved vacation to the Islands and go diving for lost gold. While I was there I would instruct the lower rungs of the ladder to start set rating the prices for pumps big and small, so I might help the industry fall, like all the boys who think they are big!!!!!!!!

If I won the Lottery I would buy the pump I run right now because it is so awesome and I LOVE to pump concrete. 22 yrs of doing it and I love it more each day. I am very fortunate to run such of a nice machine. It is the best hands down. So in short I would buy the pump I run and try to work a deal with my company to stay on with other benefits.....YES I LOVE IT THAT MUCH!!!!!!!!!!! I am going nowhere!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh what a lovely can of worms you've opened up.

I would buy a 40Z and set up a company as an NPO.  All the work I would do would be on a donation basis. 

...just think of the tax benefit a contractor would have for using my company.

I kill me...

...and she'll be on my mud flaps

Raymond, that is one big mudflap...lol. If I won the lottery I would throw a huge party for all my friends and say " don't ever say I didn't do anything for you ", then I would take a long vacation until all the dust cleared and come back and resume pumping concrete as I have enjoyed to do this far.

I'd buy a 3 or 4 pimped-out Wreckers, 10 Limos and a half a dozen Hursts (also pimped-out) . Because everthing gets stuck or wrecked - Rich folks always need their asses toted around in fancy cars - and every dead person needs one last ride so it might as well something really sweet!

 As far as pump'n goes, I'd start a museum with all the old stuff I could get my hands on. Pay some old-timers that refuse to retire top dollar to tell stories in the shop all day. The artifacts would be mounted on sweet-ass old conventionals with nice paint, chrome stax & tinted windows cuz they'd never pump another yard of concrete! With a history section full of pictures and who did what and when etc...Everyone would wear white coverall because the only dirt and grime would be on the visitors! HA,Ha,ha...

TooTall-

MAke sure the 'old-timers' telling the stories whistle when they pronounce their 'S'...they say 'warsh' instead of 'wash' and this kinda goes without saying, but they gotta be rollin' suspenders too...

Never win on the lottery, and if I win it only gets you an busticket somewhere not too far.
So I'm hoping TooTall wins and he has an job for me :D

But if I should be so lucky to get a big pile of cash, I would buy me a boat and sail around the world alone or with some good friends.
And if I should have some spare cash I would buy that Putz 62-6 I have always wanted and just park it on my lawn, just to have it there....

NOOb, use it only to water the lawn & to put up Christmas lights!

Forget the mail-box Bob! Get yourself one of those cylinders from the drive thru at the bank, suck it back and save trips to the mail box? You'll need a ball catcher on the transition so you dont chop yer mail up?

Give everything away move to the Abacos start a charity offshore fishing charter for unfortunate children.  Buy my old 61 meter schwing on a Tor chassis and make a reef out of it.  Dont think even fish could stand to be around that piece of s@#$t.  Invite all my friends and family to live in paradise with me.  Also If I wanted to work i'd start a Heineken brewery on Bimini.  Buy out my old company and give it to the hard working employees who busted their asses to make a satanic prick rich.  I guess I wouldn't be hateful then.
