    /r9k/, l've recently come into a lot of money. $25 million, to be exact, or $12.5 in a lump sum payment. l won the lottery last week, though I haven't cashed in the winning ticket yet. l'm talking to a financial consultant and getting legal help and trying to find out the best way to go about collecting. Either way, I'm going to be a multimillionaire, and the thought has occurred to me that I'd like to share the wealth. My mom is dead, my father left me when I was 3, and I don't have any siblings. But I do have you guys. I'd like to give some of my wealth to robots.

    I come to you tonight with a very serious proposition. Post your top three favorite books and your email. You can use a dummy email if you want, I don't care. If I think you have common literary interests with me (ie we share favorite novels) I will add your email to the list.

    I was considering if I should cap how many people to choose and I think I decided on an upper cap of 25 individuals. When I have 25 people I will send an email to those 25 people telling them that they have been chosen for their reading interests and to keep in touch with me for the next month or so as I get the winnings sorted out. l'Il be getting at the least if I take the lump sum $12.5, minus taxes, which would be (according to my legal counsel) somewhere around $7m. I can't even imagine spending $2m in my modest lifetime, let alone $7m, so I decided a fair amount to shave off would be $1 million. Divided 25 ways that is $40,000, an amount l don't think anyone here would really sneeze at.

    TLDR post your three most favorite books, your e-maiI, and you have a good shot at getting a lot of free money.

    Are Kafka on the Shore and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle considerably better than A Wild Sheep Chase and Sputnik Sweetheart? I was interested in Kafka and Bird but had to read Sheep and Sputnik first due to crappy library. I was disappointed and now I'm wondering if there's a point in trying to find the others anymore.

    Americans get totally reamed when they win any sort of money. Over here in the UK, if you win 25 million, you get 25 million. In America, you get two choices. Either take all of it in lump sums over the course of 40 years or so, or take a severely reduced payment, which then gets taxed.

    My favorite three books, tough one.

    First and foremost, my favorite book in the world by far is 'Sexus' by Henry Miller. This book changed me. Every time I read it, it's like manna for my soul. It refreshes me. It's an odd thing, really.

    Second... I'd say 'The Idiot' by Dostoevsky. People who say that the main character is 'Christ-like' are flat-out wrong. He's just somehow unsullied by the matters of the world which fuck almost everybody up. He's an uncorrupted soul, and as such, is magical and healing to experience.

    Third... tough. This is tough. I'd have to say any of the Dune books, though book 2, Dune Messiah, always brings tears to my eyes at the end (possibly because that my father died while I was reading this book the first time.) These books are so amazing. Calling them sci-fi is like calling 'Crime and Punishment' a murder mystery. They have politics, global ecology, and deep, deep philosophy. Some of the best books I've ever read.

    My email's chaironwheels@gmail.com. Hope to hear from you.
