I too sparx' would build my own pool - and pay some debts! But would also lend a hand too my local club - and pay for some decent equip' for them - under water video equip' etc - we have been wihtout a timer for the last 2 months!!
If I won the lottery (assuming it's one of those super jackpots in the 8 or 9 figure range), I would definitely swim more. In that situation I would probably have to go into full-time personal financial management and get involved in more charitable causes, but still have more "free" time than I have now.
I have heard that winners of mega-jackpots do not do well for various reasons -- their relationships suffer a change of dynamic, and many of them are not wise about their investments and spending. Still, I wouldn't mind being put to the test.

does freemarket include weapon commerce?

let alone play. I would rather save my dollar, and spare the disappointment.
but, it's good to think naked sometimes.
so, if I won, I would build a huge pool, no doubt. I would move to a remote place, and have lots of land, and lots of pets. Maybe even a penguin and an ostrich.
Of course I would pay off my debts, but I would mostly donate to christian organizations--like Billy Grahm.
Without a doubt, I would swim more. I would also hire a full time secretary to pay my bills for me, and accept phone calls--lol
I've heard that people who win have ruined lives. everyone who knows or knew you comes out of the woodwork begging for money.
If I won I wouldn't tell anyone, and I'd have my attorney come forward to accept. Then I'd disappera quickly and only my best friend and nearest family would know.
I can't imagine just having my phone number in the phone book after winning a couple hundred million--that's just asking for it--lol
