Re: Powerball!

I'd pay off the mortgages of my new house, my in-laws, and my parents. Then I'd pay off the student loan debt of a couple of good people I know who've decided to take the risk of becoming a doctor, vet, (etc) on their own dime. Then I'd quit my job (even though I really do like it, there are other things I'd like to do). Yea I would. I'd invest $15m in some low-yield low-risk trust fund and live off of dividends for life.

Then I'd purchase some industrial-sized property and setup a trust fund for its continued maintenance (grounds maintenance, property tax, etc) so that it's paid up for life, for the most part.

With whatever's left I wouldn't create a space for my team (gasp!). I'd create a space for my own robot projects that any robotics team could use (you know, VRC/FTC fields, FLL tables, 1 FRC field) when my other pet robot projects didn't need the space. I'd get my own tooling and some 'for public robot team use' tooling, stipulating supervision when using the good stuff (like any machine shop does already, tbh).

It'd be enough space to house local non-profit's equipment, hold community meetings, etc.

Pretty cool dream, I think.
