[Disco]

If you should be so fortunate as to win a big buck lottery. what would you do - Martial Arts Wise - with the money?
:shrug:

I would buy myself a few new uniforms and then open a really nice Kenpo school with lots of nice equiptment in it and a good air conditioner!!. :asian: :karate:

 

[Old Fat Kenpoka]

Shodan: Don't forget the patches! Design new patches!

 

[Cryozombie]

Build a Dojo for my instructor so I wouldnt have to keep getting thrown into the walls in the TINY space we train in.

Oh, and host a LOT of seminars in said space.

Heh heh.

I'd have a kenpo party. I'd pay seniors their seminar rates, and
fly them in. I'd fly in some kenpo friends that I've met online,
and invite certain members from the surrounding areas, plus
my instructors, and certain members from my school, to all work
out, like a by invitation only kenpo camp or something. But I'd
have major eats for each meal, and booze and music at night.

Get up, shake off the hangovers, and get back on the mats.
For a whole weekend, like starting friday night, and then sendin'
everybody back sunday afternoon or evening.

I would fly out to America, hold a Martial Talk Get together....and send everyone a set amount of money to come together....and then kick some ***, fly back to here, Build a Dojo for my dad, buy some nice equipment and then hopefully run a business from it

This is what I'd do. Build a bigger Dojo for my instructor. We have so many people now it's unbelievable.

Send some to me, I have none.

If we're talking about the REALLY big lotto winnings then I'd quit work, build a martial arts complex (not just a dojo) train full time and attempt to become the mecca of the MA world. Oh, yeah, and I'd sponsor martial talk for a couple of years

Find a better place for my dad's Martial Art school, and pay the rent (as much as possible)

The get together was a great idea. That would be really cool if MOB really won the lottery and really did what he posted!!!!!

That would be good everyone could meet up. Best of all we could have mat time.. put up or shut up for all the sh** talkers here people that claim they are a bad a** . Let's put them on that mat if you make up excuses not to then we know who just talks and who can back up what they say.

 

[stickarts]

buy the land, custom build the dojo, fly in guest instructors weekly, offer more to the community!!!!

 

[Bob Hubbard]

Hmm.

Win lotto - what to do MA wise?

Buy lots of land and build big house, with a fully equiped training area. Hold annual MT training camp with the best of the best instructing. Free admission for MT members.

Travel the world training with the best instructors in the arts that interest me.

drop the 50k into MT that will allow it to become the leading source for all things martial

The other non-MA stuff:
-take care of my familys needs
-place 10% in a fund to help others
-fund my business
-buy a humvee
-build a huge paintball field on the land with all the gear n stuff.

Why, just let them do what they have always done and you would most likely forget about training.
