    How the fck is number 5 smart? He lost about 100m when he took a lump sum, had to take risk and hard work to make that 100m back. Might as well just take the full 220m to begin with. He is basically back where he started. Thats not smart.

      Anytime a lottery winner just doesn't lose money it's a win. They don't know how to make money in the same place but at the same time knowing the pitfalls is a win. Also, having a modicum amount of financial sense and some discipline a person can beat the rate that the annuity offers.
      Lump sum>annuity if disciplined and financially savvy. Lump sum

    I have known two lottery winners. One won 3 million dollars about 25 years ago. It took him under three years to blow through the whole lot. He quit a very good job that paid him more than he would otherwise be worth. He very unwisely burned that bridge. When he ran out of money and found himself hopelessly in debt he was unable to get that job back and now works at minimum wage and pays his creditors, including the IRS, 25% of his income. The interest rate on his debt exceeds his total income and so therefore he will be in debt at an ever increasing amount until he dies.
    The other person I know who won the lottery won $100,000 about ten years ago. After he paid the taxes and paid off his relatively minimal debts he had about $45,000 left. He kept his job as a dishwasher. He took some business courses and then took the remaining money and opened up his own restaurant. It started as a small pizza place. He only had four tables and one delivery driver and offered limited deliveries to his neighborhood. Today he has 23 restaurants, two motels and a shopping center and employs over 500 people. He also has two homes, several luxury cars and a nice little yacht he has taken me fishing on. His oldest kid just started her first year at Harvard a few weeks ago. She's planning to study law. His youngest kid is a freshman in high school and is a chip off the old block. With $500 seed money from his dad that he has since paid back, he started his own lawn, landscape, snow shoveling business and has so far saved up over $25,000 towards his own Harvard education. Not bad for a 13 year old kid.
    If you win the jackpot don't tell anyone. My first friend above learned that the hard way. He loaned out over a million dollars to friends and family of which not a cent was ever paid back. It was years before my second buddy revealed to me that he had won years earlier. He told nobody at all at first and only told his wife to explain why he was able to start his own restaurant business. Not even his own kids knew for a few years and they lived with him.
    IF you win first pay all your taxes. Then pay all your debts. Then vow to yourself to NEVER borrow money from anyone ever again. Then make a list of everything you want to do with the money and put a dollar amount next to each item. Add it up and if it comes to more than about 25% of your net winnings then you need to pare down the list until it doesn't. Make sure you have taken care of healthcare for you and yours and make sure you have budgeted enough for at least one solid home. Make sure you have set aside enough to ensure you have a vehicle(s) for you and your family. Then make an appointment with a reputable financial adviser. Then make an appointment with another reputable financial adviser. Seek advice from at least three. All three should agree with each other. If not then seek more advice until you have a majority consensus. In a nut shell they should advise you to invest in multiple kinds of investments. Depending on your age they should tell you to put some in a more secure low yield investment, some in a moderately secure medium yield investment and some in a higher yield relatively risky investment. The older you are the less risky and more conservative your portfolio should be. Avoid putting more than 5% of your income funds into any one investment. But if you like the idea of owning your own business and have some knowledge and experience in the field you are interested you should feel comfortable investing up to about 25% of your remaining winnings in your own business. I would not risk more than that since 75% of all businesses fail in the first three years. Most good financial advisers will give you similar advice though they would flesh it out with a lot of specific suggestions. Real estate is a pretty good investment as long as you study the market and make sure you don't over pay and understand the fundamentals. Precious metals tend to be a good long term investment and should not be thought of as producing regular income but rather as a hedge against potential future crazy market swings like what happened about 9 years ago. If you see a non volatile commodity like copper or gold take a nose dive that could be a very good time to buy. Likewise if you see anything sky rocket that is almost always a bad time to buy and a very good time to sell. In 2008 when the market turned to crap my employer's stock price dropped from about $65 a share to about $7 a share. Everyone told me to dump the shares I had already bought through my employer. I had about 300 shares that I had been buying a little at a time through payroll deductions. Everyone at work was scared so they were dumping all their shares as fast as they could like everyone else. I did the opposite. I took all the gold I had bought at between $350 and $450 an oz a few years earlier and sold it at $925 an oz and used that money to buy 5000 shares of my employer's stock at about $7 a share. I was confident in the company due to it's history and otherwise solid footing and huge amount of cash reserves. Today my shares are worth over $150 each. Sure gold more than doubled in value after I sold mine and lots of people kept telling me I'm crazy but considering I more than doubled what I put into the gold then turned about $35,000 into $750,000, I think I made the correct choice. I sold my gold right after it spiked and I bought the stock right after it plunged to what seemed to me the bottom. This is an example of how to invest wisely but it take research.

      nunya biznez If I won millions, I would just take it in installments. That way, I'll get more of it on the long run. Each installment would go directly deposited into a savings account. I would pay my taxes every year from the interest generated and the rest would go into multiple checking accounts in different banks.
      I would quit my shitty job and get me a regular easy and non stressful job. I would get it just as a cover up, even if it pays less and only work 40 hours per week just so no one around me gets suspicious about how I'm getting my income.
      Reason for wanting that jack pot is just to live with a piece of mind by knowing I have all that money as a back up, and knowing I'll never go broke, never worry about losing a job, and never worry about not being able to pay for a bill.
      I don't need a fancy luxurious car, just a good new reliable one. I don't need expensive name brand clothing. Just regular clothes that don't attract attention. I don't need expensive watches or all that jewelry. I would travel from time to time just to visit different parts of the world but not too much. Maybe once a year so no one gets suspicious. If I have to go to the hospital, I don't want to worry about not being able to afford treatment.
      In other words, I would live simple life but very relaxed and stress worry free. No more financial worries for the rest of my life. Blend in with everyone else in my life. Not being some money target to someone.
      And here's the golden key........ by not telling a single living soul, I would still know who my real friends are and who in my family still appreciates me for who I am, not for what they can get from me. Case closed.

    You missed the real winner, Dennis SanFilippo. I worked with him when he was still a roofer, dead broke with expired tags on his truck. He won over 30 million. He bought himself some land, and old truck and gave some to his son.
    He ended up far wealthier than the prize money with all the property he bought and moved to Nashville where he chased his dreams to become a legitimate rock promoter and was Eddie Money's manager.
    He was a down to earth guy but he honestly believed that he had a number system that guaranteed he would win. He called his shot and got lucky....
    He came back to visit my dad after winning and told him that he felt exactly the same when he woke up in the morning, he just had more choices.

    no matter how much you win, there will be jealousy. I won 1,000 from the Albertsons grocery store Monopoly game. My girlfriend's sister in law was heard saying we didn't deserve it. She started to act really funny with us and eventually turned her back on us as time went on. She thought she should have it. 3 of daughters were around at the time. She only had one kid. My girlfriend and I were struggling to get off of public assistance, and she and her husband had very well paying jobs each. Where her logic came from, I have no idea. What's really funny was the money wasn't in cash, it was in the form of gift cards. Lol

    My next door neighbor won the lottery not too long after he moved into the neighborhood almost 20 years ago. Originally he moved into my neighborhood because its much cheaper than the town he previously lived in (his house is much smaller than mine).
    His jackpot wasnt as large as any of the winners in the video. He won 3 million dollars. But he chose the lump sum option which meant that the state takes 50 percent of your jackpot right off the top and taxes you on the remaining 50 percent they let you have (Yeah. I know. That sucks). Which meant he netted around 960 thousand and change after taxes. He was pissed because he thought the lump sum option meant they would give him the 3 million dollars up front in full.
    Neighbors were positive that now he won the lottery, he would move back to his old, more expensive neighborhood. Or anywhere else more expensive. Instead, he stayed. And he put his money to good use. He improved and slightly expanded his house. Finished the basement, an extra room and bathroom in the basement, expanded the size of his kitchen, new siding and a new roof, installed central air conditioning, put an inground pool in his backyard, put in inground sprinklers in his front lawn, etc. And he invested part of his money into his own plumbing business and bought himself a truck and a couple vans for his business. He seems to be doing very well as a plumber. I see him and his helpers leaving in their truck and van every morning to go to work. I imagine he has long since earned back every cent of his jackpot that he spent or invested and then some.
    Funny thing is that right after he won, my family members went crazy buying up lottery tickets for the next weeks jackpot. I bought none. I thought the chances of winning the lottery are already astronomical. But the chances of me or my family winning the lottery the very following week after our next door neighbor has won, is just about much more impossible. Predictably they won nothing.

    I also sometimes play the lottery in Europe and friends tend to ask me what I would do with the winnings. My answer is always the same: since it is a non taxable income spend 30%-40% on real estate to ensure an income because you never know, buy a car of maybe €20.000 because why spend hundreds of thousands of euro's on a sportscar when you can only drive 120 km/hour max? Buy a normal family home but with a big property because what good is a giant estate with 50 rooms if you live on your own, all these rooms have to be filled hence more unnecessary expense. Keep working, if you quit your job sooner or later you will become bored or give away that you have won the big cheque, say goodbye to your personal life/space after that. Don't change my way of life like buying giant bottles of champagne because a beer will always be better in my opinion, keep going to the restaurants you used to go instead of the fancy ones it is the food that counts instead of the status a restaurant brings.

      Certainly there is that crowd... who waste their money by buying way too many tickets .. They don't understand how the ODDS work.
      On the other hand, there have been people who have never played the lottery before but have a very powerful dream.. and are given specific numbers... and they have won. by spending one dollar.
      If one has a strong premonition and so buys one ticket and wins... that is not what I call a stupid person... it is a person who is Aware enough to pay attention to their gut.
      But yea... those who continually buy lots of tickets... all the time. That's just a silly addiction.

      Cash option, you only get a percentage of the jackpot to start with, depending on where you live, its around 60-70% of the total. Then you have to pay tax on the amount that you actually got. so on 220M x 70% = 154M x 45% taxes = 84.7M that you get when its all said and done.

      E-Live Da God It’s a great way to share the wealth. As long as you never let anyone know that the business is funded by lottery money, because you then run the risk of tempting your employees to steal from you, justifying to themselves that you can afford it. Even the most pure-hearted people can fall to temptation, unfortunately, secrecy is key. Even if you believe your business can afford to lose money for a while, never let anybody know it, because then you’re almost guaranteed it will.
