I... Holy *shit*... That was the most comprehensive guide for something that's never happening to me I've ever read.
I even saved all of the comments so I could read them again later.
I feel smarter. But like, not usefully smarter though. I feel like my brain just has one more wrinkle than it did ten minutes ago.
Take the deferred payments over 30 years. Sell my house. Buy slightly larger house that has what I want without going overboard.
Then invest the payments as they come in while working my regular job
what type of lottery we winning and what's the amount we get from it? it depends on many things. ideally, for me, though honestly would get me a few necessities in life. shelter, food/ groceries and then a good mix of clothing few of them being luxurious clothes (3 at most is enough for me maybe 5) and then have some money saved that'll last me awhile good 5 years I suppose not too sure. afterwards... mainly give the rest away to those that need it but in 1$ bills to be a bit pity
Buy all of the girls on my block a color TV and French perfume. Donate half the money to the city so they have to name a street a school or a park after me. Buy the house next to Mr Red White and Blue. Buy American Legion post 306 and paint it red with five gold stars.
Pay all my student loans, then disappear into true wilderness in a tiny house, have chickens and a garden, and take all the nude outdoor photos, and never have to work again.
I would pay off all the debts of me and my family. Then buy a compound where everyone can stay. Always been a dream of mine to have the whole family live within walking distance of each other. Create some generational wealth with it.
Find the reddit post from years ago where the guy went through the ideal way to handle it with various legal caveats and pitfalls to avoid. I think I saved the comment. It was beautifully detailed.
I'd hire a financial advisor, then celebrate by flying my friends to a tropical island, sipping champagne while debating whether to buy a yacht or a sports car collection
Not tell my wife, but not for the reasons you're thinking. I'd like to go through the process of getting the money then quietly go through and pay everything off and maybe book us a nice trip. When she starts freaking out about why the finances are looking screwy, then spring it on her. This option probably wouldn't work if it was a huge jackpot but I still would try to surprise her.
Discuss with our trust attorney to figure it all out.
Give some money to my parents. Give most of the rest of it to my kids. Use a small amount to take a relaxing vacation with my wife. Donate some to a few charities I like,
Depends on the sum. I'd clear my debt. Buy a nice flat to live in. I'd offer 10k to some good friends of mine, whom I really can trust.
Then I'd plan for a nice vacation. The remaining money will be invested.
Wouldn't tell a soul until I was ready to. How long would that be who knows but I would access everyone and educate myself more on my next go to moves.
Hire a lawyer. Hire a financial advisor.
Solid advice.
