When I win Powerball. That little two-man helicopter they had us flying in, which is not much bigger than your average amusement park ride's seating car? Costs three hundred thousand dollars, and that's just the purchase price, never mind the maintenance on something that's essentially all moving parts. (Also aviation gas costs around $7/gallon; it's 100 octane gasoline with lead in it. Although the instructor did say that the helicopter could run on Sunoco gas if it had to, just not nearly as well.)
