if you won a million dollars...

Of course? You wouldn't? We'd go on vacations together, immediately, screw this weather!

No.

But I'd instruct the hired hitman to disclose the info to her just before he pulled the trigger.

kidding...

I don't play.

Absolutely. He'd be the first person I would tell.

Sure I'd tell her. You think I could carry all those books out of the store by myself?

You betcha. You have any idea how hard it would be to hide 1) that you'd won a million and 2) the million itself? Not to mention the income tax form he'd have to sign next year.

"What? Oh! That! Must be a typo, honey. Just go ahead and sign... it'll be fine."

if I won a million dollars.....

I would be rich.

I don't have spouse but I wouldn't tell my friends' spouses that I won.

Not each other?

If I won a million dollars, I'd build a tree fort in my yard.

And I would buy a monkey. I've always wanted a monkey.

IF I won a million dollars.

My lawyer serving the divorce papers would tell her.

I don't think that's a line in the song.

I don't have a spouse. I'd tell my parents though.

That would be a nice amount of cash. I'd pay off all debts and buy my folks a vehicle or two. I'd probably help them out more than that financially as well. For all the support they've given me over the years, it would be my pleasure to repay them for it.

If I had a million dollars by Bare Naked Ladies

Oh. Haven't heard it.

Yea, I'd tell him. Tell him he has to pay the taxes.

I couldn't keep that a secret. My face would look just like I was cheating on him. Besides I'd need a handsome guy to go on vacation with.

Are you paying the taxes?

If I had a spouse, I'd tell her. Well, it depends, are we going through a divorce? If we were getting divorced, then no I wouldn't tell her.

My thoughts exactly! Well, except that it's "him" not "her"...oh, nevermind.

Sorry guys and gals. If you are married at the time of the winning, the money is considered a common asset. Even if you are on the verge of finalizing a divorce. If you try anything underhanded, the majority, or even the entire thing, will go to your spouse.

The best thing to do is to get divorced now. Then play the lotto. That way you can keep it all.

Great. Now I'll be humming that one all day long.

"If I had a million dollars...if I had a million dollars....I'd buy you a fur coat, but not a real fur coat, that's cruel...."

i could just say the Ferrari belongs to a friend...

Of course. But I wouldn't tell anybody else. And after taxes, we'd give it away.
