ok. you can afford to fund Utah's homeless problem for 1.5 years, with 500 million, which is what you'd be left with after winning the 1 Billion dollar lottery

You can always start a foundation to keep the money flowing in. People would donate

Probably more cost effective to pay off local and state politicians to get tax money diverted to it.

True. That's lobbying I can get behind
