Wow, the restraint on you! How could you not buy at least one? If I was in the States I definitely would get some to dream

Yeah, you and me both, brother. I actually intended to buy one, but work got in the way and that night I totally forgot.

It was a fun exercise. Truth is though, I honestly believe that winning that much money would ruin your life, and probably those of your immediate family as well.

I agree with this sentiment: Winning something like $1 to 5 million in a lottery -- woo-hoo! But a billion? Ruin your life indeed.

Srsly, though, if ppl feel that way, it's simple, give away the ~$999M or whatever and enjoy the rest.
