Tales From Two Texas Paw Paw

Hi folks, this is 2 Texas PawPaw and the reason for this blog is I like to tell stories and try to write a little poetry now and then. Most of my writings is about my family because I have the greatest family in the world, I realize if you dont know my family, it might be a little boring to you but maybe my family will get a kick out of some of it anyway, Hope you like it and if you dont, well, thats ok too, you're still my friend.

"YOU WON THE TEXAS LOTTERY"

OK, this should be fun, follow the story line. You stop at a convienent store and purchase a ticket for the Texas Lottery for Wednesday night. After the drawing, you discover that you hold the winning ticket. The pot is $20,000,000.00 and after taxes you receive clear $12,000,000.00. The first thing you do is go to Austin and pick up your money. After that, you decide what the first 5 things you will do with the money and tomorrow, I, Two Texas PawPaw will tell you the last thing you are going to do. This is for five people to answer: NANA, ANG, KENDRA, GREG, and KAREN. Let me see some answers.

Hmmm....
1. I would buy a couple of houses. One here in Pampa and then a vacation house somewhere (or a condo) like in Hawaii or something like that. I would spend about $500,000 on each house.
2. I would buy Greg and I each a new car (him a truck, me an SUV)
3. Pay off all of our debt
4. Give you and nanny about $200,000
5. I would invest at least $1 million in some type of mutual fund or something like that.

Very good investments Ang, but, what abut Mom, Kendra and Kayleigh?If you win, they can't, only one winner, would you like to revise your choices?

I have always said I will buy as much land as I can, and who ever wants to live on my land with me (family or friends) i will build them a house, I would also take care of my friends family and whoever has helped me in past will be taken care of!! I would start a white single not married no kids college fund because its hard for those people to go to school

Well, I was thinking of it like they (kendra, mom, and them) had won the lottery too...so, if there's only ONE winner then I guess you and nanny will have to divvy up your $200,000

That means if you divide $200,000.00 between me, nanny, mom, kendra and kayleigh, thats $40,000.00for each out of 12 million???

Ang, umm, I think you need to revise again. lol...

1. I would quit work
2. I would pay off all my debts
3. I would buy a Ranch in pampa
4. I would hire someone to come to my farm in Roxton and finish the game room, redecorate my house, hard wood floors, etc...
5.I would divy the rest up with Immediate family after giving a million a piece to Josh and Kayleigh for College.

Very good Kathy. but, how can you pay off all your bills, you only get $12,000,000.00---Ha Ha

WELL!!! I can see how it would be if I won the lottery...ya'll turn into a bunch of money hungry moochers! Fine, you guys can have a quarter of a million each...will that make ya happy???

Good choices Greg---one question---do we furnish our own gambling money in Vegas? Could you maybe throw in, say, $5,000.00 each for slots and so forth? By the way we're still waiting on Kendra, before I can tell you all what the last thing you are going to do if you had of won.
