Surpirse no said they'd buy Epic.

A touch of reality. $1 mil does not buy an island with all the stuff that goes with it.

You can't live high the rest of your life off of it. You could get by provided you managed it correctly and didn't get in trouble. Figure a 5-10% return on the average. You'll have better years for your portfolio of investments and then some bad ones.

Most small gas stations have a rough time. You're not gonna start with a $40K station and turn into $2mil. Not many places to find a $40k station to begin with.

Don't get me wrong, it would be a nice shot in the arm, even if you had to pay taxes on it. Assuming that youu did, that $1 mil could have just become ahalf.
