Have you heard? Surely you’ve seen. Your tickets are probably purchased already. You are practically a billionaire already. It is not hard to be swept up in all this Powerball fever. It is intoxicating to think of winning all that money. One could hardly begin to think of ways to spend it all. How simple we think life could become with those billion dollars. And how many fantasies this growing sum has spurred.

If you ask the average person, their answer as to what they would do with their lottery winnings is usually planned out. Though immensely different, it is hard not to smile when sharing the plan for your massive winnings.

Of course, the logical and rational parts of our minds remind us of the impossibility of actually having those powerful numbers on our ticket. Statistics say that we each have a better chance of being struck by lightning or bitten by a shark than striking it rich with the Powerball. Nonetheless, we still imagine a world in which we would be so lucky. What fun are statics when true wealth seems so within our reach.

With 1.5 billion dollars, you can finally quit your day job and pursue your true dreams and passions. Maybe work will entirely be a thing of the past, known only in another life… a life without ridiculous riches and the corresponding opulence. Car service from Carmel would be your daily ride. In face, make it a Carmel limousine! Why not, you’re a billionaire! Have your butler use his Carmel app to summon your sleek and luxurious ride to the door of your penthouse apartment. Your designer bags will be lovingly tucked away as you’re off to JFK. Last minute trip to Thailand? No problem. The world is at your feet.

But, unfortunately, we must face the reality that that will not happen for most, in fact, almost all of us. Luckily, you don’t need to be a billionaire to enjoy a ride with Carmel!
