I think a million dollars in 2001 will be able to buy you a bunch of the things you always dreamed of having (cool car, wicked vacation, no more debts) and leave you with enough to get yourself a decent pad. It's just not a life altering amount of money any more, IMHO.

I think people that get insanely rich really fast are only heading for disaster. I agree with you about the effects of insane amounts of money. But for a million dollars...I think it'll just make you a bit more comfy.

i agree with gphi2k. a million dollars, when won, isn't a lot. they do take out a lot of taxes which leaves you with less than what you probably expected. although i do not doubt what pbear19 said. some people freak out with extra money. i've always thought money is the root of a lot of problems, but it is also the stem of some happiness. money does make the world go round, as much as i hate to admit that.
