If I were Filthy Rich
By myrareidea+139 $1000 a week for life
This was once a prize in Texas but it no longer exists. I’m sure other states have it or similar.
What would you do with this type of money? Would you feel rich? Would you still work? Would you tell anyone or keep your mouth shut?

+107 @SpaceghostLos 52k a year plus what I make? Id feel more comfortable for sure.
+101 @bluehifi $1000 a week pretax is hardly a jackpot. I would just put it all into savings and retire earlier. Wouldn’t change my lifestyle at all. It’s only like $600 a week at the end of it. Not to mention the fact that annuity winnings lose their value with inflation.
+16 @ninjasamuraii Would I feel rich? With $52,000 a year? That’s less than half of what I make now, and I definitely don’t feel rich, so no, I would not feel rich, just slightly more comfortable.
+11 @Boatingboy57 I would use it as “hooker” money to quote Charlie Harper. Ok, fun money for vacation etc.
