You don't claim this until you have your lawyers/accountants/advisors all in place. That's going to take a few months. -- nm - MDH Aug 26, 12:28 17
- hahahahahaha,I'm there at 8am in the morning the day after - ty97 Aug 26, 12:31 16

        ooh -- nm - Max Aug 26, 13:14
      - That's more than 10 characters, but I'm sure they'd be willing to accommodate once you tell them you'll pay them a billion dollars. -- nm - Dano Aug 26, 13:12
  - I'm at my bank putting it in a safe deposit box in the morning. Then I'm lining everything else up. -- nm - pmb Aug 26, 12:49 10
    - bank --> Ferrari dealership --> accountant - decline Aug 26, 12:53 9
      - It's 1.3b, buy a ferrari for the accountant too, that'll shut them up. -- nm - ty97 Aug 26, 12:54 8
        
        I'm assuming this is 1 winner ticket too. If this was a group that won, goodness. This will be a long while. -- nm - MDH Aug 26, 13:01 7
        
        This a good point. With all of the ST lawyers and financial advisors and well, we'd be obstinate, we'd claim at deadline -1 or mebbe -2 days -- nm - JD Aug 26, 13:07 6
        
        We can't even decide on where to eat when travelling in groups. If we ever won the lottery as a group it would be some kind of international fiasco -- nm - oblique Aug 26, 13:15 5
        
        One of us would win the Oscar for Best Documentary about it though -- nm - ty97 Aug 26, 13:22 2
        
        It would be called "Walking Distance", right? -- nm - Beryllium Aug 26, 14:16
        
        I've always had the dream/nightmare that the end of slackertalk.com is that on a glorious night, one of us mentions it during an Oscar ceremony - JD Aug 26, 13:32
        
        exactly - St. Epiphany Aug 26, 13:16 1
        
        But, but, we'd have an incentive to figure it out ;-) - JD Aug 26, 13:23 [Attachment]
