NO MATER what i won i would have two banks and i would split it in half so if i blew the first bank the second bank would pay me like a Job and if I had 4.000.000 in that bank i would pay myself 1923 dollars a week for 40 years.

The first thing I'm going to do is thank God because I knew it was coming. Then I'm going to take a nap because I'm tired. Tomorrow I'm going to wake up and go to work for my last day. Then I'm going to call a lawyer and financial advisor, then after my team is set up, I'm going to turn in the ticket and remain anonymous since my state allows it. After it's all set, I'm going to set up individual funds for my family and give them each a good portion. After that is settled, I'm going to book a trip to Thailand and buy a condo. Relax and figure out what I want to do from there. I will thank God for the financial freedom so that I can complete my actual purpose of connecting with people all over the world telling my story and letting them know that God is real. ❤️✨

I like everything except quitting work the next day for a few reasons. If I'm an employer and one of my employees just up and quits, I'd be upset. I know it happens a lot, but that doesn't necessarily make it right. Also, I don't want to give away any hints that I've won the lottery. I'll work for a while longer, but also will be setting up my financial team in the meantime. The only thing I'd do is change my number prior to claiming my ticket because we all know your phone will start blowing up once it's known you're a winner. This is for those whose states don't allow anonymity.

I wouldn't tell a soul if I won the lottery. Don't get why anyone would want to go public and subject themselves to envy, jealousy, requests for money and dangerous characters coming after their money. I would help out my loved ones, but would pick a stock that exploded, and explain I made money from investing in that stock.

You people fail to understand basic law, this is why some lawyers, “accountants & financial advisors” get off with your money when you hire them. Firstly, when winning the -tax fraud money laundering- lottery whatever state you live in that may require you to be subject of public appearance. Secondly, when in the process of securing your financial sector, you will have a hard time trying to find lawyers, accountants, and advisors who aren’t unethical and or immoral. Thirdly, if you passed those first 2 with flying colors the next issue is your fellow neighbors, it’s quite simple on what to do at this stage. If I were to win the lottery even though I don’t participate in such shams, I would keep my job until I am completely secured, take my time evaluating my financial law team, and getting a government phone.

1st get a lawyer to help keep your name out of the press, and what will happen regarding taxes, plus have a will drawn up. 2nd: tell no one, don't make any sudden changes, in where you live, what you drive, or quit your job. 3: do not give anyone a large cash gift. Especially when they know how much you make working. Do not buy anyone expensive gifts.

Why would you need financial adviser(s) with all that money? Gloria MacKenzie won the Powerball and her "financial advisers" overbilled her, over 1 million dollars. Simply put all that money in a couple bank accounts and live off the interest. Further, you would probably only need to hire one person, an attorney, if that and the attorney may try to rip you off too. Pay off any debt you have and then buy a modest home and that is all you need. Sorry, but just because you won the lottery does not give you a Ph.D. in anything. Many rich people think they are smart, and all the rich people I know are not smart, they simply inherited their money and make passive income with rental properties. They did not work for their money.

I really think news should stop making these segments (what to do if you win). Even if a million people tuned into your show it'd be more likely than not not a single one of them won. Segments like this deceive people in believing against the insane odds of losing. You are literally more likely to die driving to buy a ticket than to have a jackpot ticket.
