What will you do if you won the Lottery

So youre filthy rich, strapped and set for life.. what will you do next???

This conversation always comes up at work and with the wife when we are bored.
I would do all the things that new millionaires will do except buy a new car. I wouldnt tell a soul except my wife. I think things will get hectic the moment friends and relatives hear about your new found wealth .

As for a hobbyists perspective, i would definitely build a setup that would somewhat be in arapaimags league. I would also setup a farm in fla to work on some breeding projects. Not commercial , just for pleasure.

I would ask arapaimag for blue prints and then zoom you know what I am talking about 100,000 gal...

pay off my debt and my moms debt. quit my job, move to florida, get married in the keys, by a house on the water and live happily ever after.
oh yeah by a lode of giant tanks with misc. cool fish.

i dont know about the rest of you but as much as i love ag's tank i would NEVER want a tank that big.

maintaining something like that would be a nightmare from hell for me.

the absolute biggest tank would ever consider owning would be about 3000 gallons

anything bigger would have to be a pond

wow, depends how rich. But i would never work a day of my life. Move to europe and buy my own soccer team and run it and manage it to the top. Create setups maxing out at 10,000 gallons, for both saltwater and freshwater. That would be the life

Why would maintenance be a nightmare?? Dont forget you ARE FILTHY RICH.
Hire a team to do daily water changes if you want...money is not an issue. If you want, hire a pellet feeder person, live food person and chopped fish feeder person.

, thats genius. I would totally do that at petco. I would tell customers to go f themselves and the sort. . Tell them I wont sell them guppies because its wrong to put one in a 55 gallon.
