To make an analogy, giving someone a smock and necessary paint supplies doesn't automatically turn that person into an artist. So, it stands to reason that giving someone a bunch of money doesn't automatically turn that person into a better money handler or manager, especially when they have already shown to have bad money managing skills from the get-go by, ironically, spending money on lotteries.

Things to do when you win a jackpot lottery. 1. Tell NO ONE that you won until you've done everything else on this list. That may be tough but this is usually when people make the biggest mistakes. You may tell one person that you trust, but will they keep that a secret? Please. It's much more likely they will tell 5 people, who tell 20 people who... ends up being someone willing to kill to get your money. Tell no one until you've not only received the money but have set up your finances. 2. Obviously, take a selfie with the lottery ticket -- and make sure the numbers are clearly visible. 3. Contact a lawyer and/or draw up a will. You can create a temporary will online, too, for free. You can revise it later, but if something should happen to you during the time you're waiting to receive the money (usually 4-6 weeks) you may end up giving it to your ex-husband because your old will stipulated him as your beneficiary. Or something along those lines. Oh, and make sure to include a clause that if you should die in any kind of sudden or unexplained way, all the money will go to charity. Don't disclose which charity, except to your lawyer. Also, do not tell anyone named in the will that they are named in the will. 4. Depending on the lottery and the rules (it varies by state/country), decide how you want to receive the money, i.e., all at once or annuitized. Most advise to take the cash. That is, all at once, but there are dangers to that. For one thing, you can lose it all that much faster, too. But, beware. Annuitized amounts can be lost if you sign them over to someone. This is all before you cash in your ticket. When you are ready to turn in the ticket, do NOT go to your local convenience store. GO to the state lottery office to fill out the form. This will ensure your privacy locally. With some lotteries you can now remain anonymous, which is a good security strategy and one that should be done. Scammers and every charity (both real and fake) come out of the woodwork once your name is published-- they're waiting to find out who won the latest lottery. Distant relatives and friends from the 5th grade also tend to show up unexpectedly. Everyone seems to think that you're supposed to share your winnings with them. 5. Bonus. During that interim of 4-6 weeks, the first thing to do is set up a budget. Yes, a budget. Because no matter how much money you're getting, it's a finite amount, which means you could end up broke again if you don't have a plan. If you have no idea how to set up a budget, you can ask your banker to help you draw one up. Or, you can waste a lot of money going to a financial planner. But most bankers are more than capable of doing the same thing, usually without pushing their own agenda in terms of investments. As for investments, remember there are only two investments you can count on : Gold and Real Estate. Why? Because they never entirely lose all their value. Their value may go up or down but they are never worthless. Unlike so many stocks and bonds, etc. Oh, and? Starting your own business is one of the riskiest investments there is. 95% of them fail within the first 2 years. Also, before giving to any charities, do some research and learn which ones are legitimate and which spend more on promotion and salaries than actually doing any good. Also, figure out how much you do want to give to anyone before you tell them of your big win. And most of all remember the wisest words I ever heard on this topic : Where there's money, there's people looking to steal it.

@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 2 ай бұрын

I know a number of people who have their own business. I don't know anyone who went broke. It probably won't make you a fortune, but you won't starve. Minuses: no days off, no insurance, sick days, and an insanely high tax rate of like 20+% You can also get hurt and be screwed. Gold is worthless to you if shite hits the fan. It'll be food, firearms/ammo and fresh water. Plus gas. I don't see how that's useful. You can tell people they're involved if you die, but just tell them it's not much. Like to take care of your pet costs, that they'll take them and can't just kill them off to get your money. I know someone that the family tried that! My friend took the dogs. I'd pay the house off and get a car that's a few years old. Low miles for its age and garage kept. Unless it's fairly new, then higher miles is ok. Like 45k or so for the first year or two. I got a great deal on a few cars like that. Mercury Sable and Challenger R/T. Both had 45k and they were just over a year old. Cars are WAY overpriced now. If I could get a driver that drives better than the average Uber driver (out of 3 rides, 2 were unnecessarily scary!)...actually, I'd ride w the average Nigerian cab driver much faster than any rideshare. I've rarely had a bad cab driver. This is just me. Also had a business 33 years. Trick is to NOT have any overhead. Or very little. Use a box truck if you want a restaurant or say a small store or bookshop. Or a school bus. Then, assuming it's in decent running shape, it's MAYBE 5-10k purchase price. Gas is VERY high w these, about 6mpg, about what you get in a Ferrari. Parts cost more, too. Not sure about insurance. It's not commercial unless you're driving people for money, tho. I'd buy LAND way before gold. Houses require a lot. They take money in constant repairs. Mortgage interest. Cleaning...land is cheap in comparison. If you're smart, you can build houses and sell the house, but NOT the land under it. I'd think many smaller places would be beneficial, since A. A lot of people can't afford a big house and the costs, and like investing, a lot of smaller bits add up to a more expensive whole. I'd like mutual funds and certain individual stocks, like McDonald's and such. If you keep them long enough, you can buy a car w the proceeds. You don't need a brokerage for a number of them, either. People being mortgaged several times makes me extremely nervous. Like, put in 150k to house A, then get a loan to get another house, House B. That's assuming it's going to go up at a fast rate of speed FOREVER, and if you read about the crash of 2008, you'll see that's not true. Or Detroit. There's a book called Detroit. As well as the drug impact in a book called Dreamland. The 2008 crash book is The Forclosure of America. Library has them all. Rule 1 is the law of large numbers. Large numbers get less likely to go up indefinitely. Real estate is tricky. In your favor is everyone needs to live somewhere. But at 7.5%, that's a LOT more money a month. Most people don't have much down payment, either. So, again. Because most people don't THINK, they buy for the relationship they have and can ONLY work that way BECAUSE there are 2 adults, both WORKING. If someone gets hurt, they are in trouble.

Most of what you'd do, you SHOULD be doing, anyway. Investing with someone legit, like Fidelity. Having a decent car that's reliable and doesn't eat money. Either in gas or maintain. A decent house in a nice area where you're safe and have everything you need. That's not a 4 million dollar house where the taxes are 40k. Figure out what you'd need, invest wisely, do some math on what you spend NOW, and go from there, assuming at least 10% increases a year. Cut back wherever and whenever possible. If you want something extreme RENT IT. DO NOT BUY IT. Think an RV or a Ferrari. Nobody needs either, and they EAT gas, never mind repair and insurance costs. A few days or a week would be plenty and it's not insanely expensive. Last I checked, it was like 2,500. So, not cheap. But doable. Then, when it's 60k a year to run it (hello. Ferrari), that won't be your problem. Track day is once around the track. That was maybe a few hundred bucks. Worth it.

I think most people think they'd be more responsible with a lotto win than they actually would be. I imagine it's easy to get swept up in the sudden abundance. Most people I talk to about it say they would throw a massive party, then set themselves up with a home and a car, pay off debts and help out family and friends, then travel and live off the rest, but most of those conversations assumes a massive windfall - more than 10 million dollars. A lot of jackpot wins come in between 1-5 million dollars (I'm in Australia), so by the time you've bought yourself a house (between $450 000 - $1 500 000 depending on proximity to the city) and a car ($15 000 - $50 000, more if you want new) a good chunk of that is gone. You've also likely got debts to pay off which might be a few grand, or over 100k, and if you won just 1 million and were very conservative with the previous, you might have enough for a holiday and to cover bills for a while, but you'd be realistically needing to go back to work. If you had a bit more, you could probably afford to help out friends and family a bit too, but realistically? That money is gone. It's still a life-changing amount, sure, but with how expensive everything is? It's not a setup for a luxury lifestyle, it might just help ease some of the crippling financial burden. Even with a much bigger windfall, if you are concerned with helping your family and loved ones also get set up and debt free, a lot of that money is going to go and fast. You also can't dismiss the drama that comes with money - it really makes people show their true colours.

@@largol33t12 I'm just talking about a 2-3 bedroom home and a standard new-not-used car. You can get a 3-bedroom shoebox of a house for around $450 000, but if you want to be close to public transport, in a good neighbourhood or closer into the city, you're looking at closer to $800 000. If you want to be inner city with a family home, you're up to around $1.5 million. For a car that is new or has less than 50 000 kms on it, you're starting at $30 000 - that's for an automatic vehicle targeted at families. So at the lower end of that spectrum, you've got a family home on a block of units and a sedan with 50 000 kms on it for just shy of $500 000 - out of a small jackpot win of say, $1 million, that's half gone before you even look at paying off student debts, credit card debts or think about holidays. It's still a lifechanging situation for most people who would never be able to dream of buying their own property ever (I'm in that category) but it's not nearly the luxury lifestyle that that sort of money is still promoted as.

Back in 2017 in South Africa we had a huge powerball jackpot about $15 500 000 for a Saturday night draw and on Monday someone claimed to have a winning ticket, after some time the national lottery found out that the winning numbers were played on the Sunday after the draw.

I don't know if you covered this one before, but there was a lottery winner notorious in Britain some years back that the papers dubbed "The Lottery Lout" and "King Chav". He was a construction worker who won the lottery jackpot. As a result, he quit his job, bought a mansion and used the land to host go karting and parties on the regular. Eventually, between his expenses and whatever else, he soon blew through his winnings in a matter of months before having to beg for his old job back. When he was questioned, the Lout said "If I could, I would do it all again" which is indeed stupid, but at the same time, fair play

Years ago i helped a young woman who won -(after taxes - $30,000). As a realtor, I found her a manufactured home in a park that fit her budget. Her credit wasn’t good and the park wouldn’t approve her because they were worried about her ability to pay the monthly fees. Also many family member were asking her to money. We brainstormed. To deal with both problems, she prepaid the park rent for several years and I helped her estimate what her monthly expenses might be. She then opened a separate savings account and deposited several years of future expenses plus some money for emergencies. She now knew how much money she had left to be comfortable helping others and felt she would be honest when she said NO -I can’t help. It was a valuable lesson for both of us

If I'd won the lottery, I'd largely just try to use it to survive, pay off debts, etc. If I have money left over from that, though, then I might go for a few things that I want. Of course, I never did trust gambling or the lottery by any means, though, with stories like these being exactly why, so while you can't win it without doing it, you also can't lose everything in an addiction to it without doing it. I just don't see the reward being worth the immense risk.

I have always been very careful with my money. I had to be since I raised my 3 children on my own with no help from anyone. I was not one to ask or borrow money from anyone and only had minimum wage jobs. Paying my rent, food, then things for my children didn't leave any money for me. I went to second hand stores to buy my clothes, but I tried to buy better clothes for my children so they wouldn't be laughed at at school like I was by wearing hand-me-downs when I was growing up. My son died suddenly last year of a heart attack. He was only 37 years old. I had a 30 thousand dollars insurance on him which I haven't even touched yet which I had been paying for since he was 12 years old. I'm scared to touch it in case in the future an emergency pops up and I would be in need of it. If I ever won it rich I would not give any money to any of my family members except for maybe 1 brother because he is like me and would bend over backwards to help someone. The only time I would see a family member is when they wanted something and never gave anything in return. They would come to my town to visit their friends but never stop off to say hi to me. I would also help out the one true friend I had for the past 35 years. Though I only get to see her maybe once every 5 years now since we live in different provinces now, she has never used me and we both know that no matter what, we are there for each other. She is like me, a hard worker. All I really want is a small cabin in the woods by a lake or river with a wood stove and of course the internet. LOL I love exploring the woods and fishing. =)

Meanwhile, that amount for me would probably enable me to retire, set up a secure investment fund, and live off the interest for the rest of my life. If I had a handful of millions, I'm confident I'd know how to maintain it without going broke. If I won hundreds of millions, I'm less sure I'd keep my good sense. I like to think I would, but everyone who's ever won the lottery seems to feel the same way until they actually do. Suffice it to say, I don't think anyone should be complaining about cost of living or wishing they could go back to work (because what's stopping them from finding a job?) after winning millions. If they invested even half of that money, it's possible they could still live their world adventuring dreams someday. It just wouldn't happen immediately. Plus, if the cost of living really is an issue where they've chosen to live (especially if they had a lavish home built for themselves, compounding the problem through taxes and upkeep), they can probably find a place where the cost of living is lower.
