Would you still hoard wood if you won big in the lottery?

    We jotted some numbers down yesterday for a ticket choice. And forgetting to buy one, I'm not so sure I want to check the winning numbers....:D

    If I won the lottery I'd have to travel to the South West to visit my wife. It may be most pleasant to visit her during the CSS and burn season. This may limit my hoarding.

    I see alot of people would move south but I like the seasons so i would stay in a area that had winter. I would probably quit my job, buy some more land and make lumber in addition to cutting firewood to keep me busy. I enjoy running the sawmill. Its always cool to see what a tree is hiding under its bark.

    I would probably buy some cleared land also and have a small farm. Cut hay in the summer and sell it.

    I reckon i would, as it keeps me happy and the missus warm... well me too. Id buy me a farm in the eastern hill country of Holstein and become superhoarder.
    Keep hoarding and expand the stacks!

    If he got 50 he would have 1/3rd as many saws as I've had so far.
    But then , I used to be an over the top saw ho.
    Well nearly 1/3rd I'm at 149 if I can get the 535 Jonsred I liberated from a dumpster a new carb kit so that it runs good enough to cut a load of wood.

    Money is just colored paper. Satisfaction is gold IMO If I did ever hit the big ticket I wouldn’t stop. I’d hunt and fish more tho
