Farmers On Twitter Dream About What They’d Do With Powerball Winnings

Starting on January 9 with a tweet from farmer and rancher Jerod McDaniel, farmers and other agriculture professionals began using the Twitter hashtag #AgPowerballDreams to spout off about what they’d do with the enormous, record-breaking lottery pot. (It’s the largest in North America, anyway – Spain’s El Gordo has reached heights of $2.4 billion, though that’s split amongst many more winners than the Powerball.) And some of those responses have been priceless. Here are our favorites:

I won I won! $4 from a $10 investment. Just like farming. #AgPowerBallDreams

#AgPowerballDreams I would see if $800 million in cash would be enough collateral at the bank for a $10000 loan in a down cattle market

#AgPowerBallDreams I would convert my $800 million in winnings to Canada dollars and become a $1.1 Billion lottery winner.
