Most posts in this subreddit have a few people who focus only on investing (even if the spirit is more about 'What cool stuff will you do'), However It got me thinking.. When I win £1m (In the UK it's not taxed, but for US folk, assume its $1m landing in your account), and want to act...

The Powerball is over $350M today. After tax for some states you can get at least $80M after taxes and fees. After you've completed your gifts and made your immediate (and not so immediate) purchases, how would you allocate your investments? Would you invest into crypto? Real estate? Are ther...

I've always wanted a bit of tungsten. A sphere or small brick. A bit to have on the desk and appreciate. At $275/kilo (for a 1.5" cube) it's not expensive per se but cool and unnecessary.

I’d go to the phone store and get a god damn new phone number so these fucking robo calls for loans stop calling me! Sorry just had to get that out.

This question is specifically about Arkansas and what to do when you win the Lottery. The back of the ticket should already be signed. That should have been done when the ticket was purchased. Upon winning you only have 180 days to claim the Jackpot. So, time is of the essence. We already kn...

Planning to pick up the prize on Friday morning and take friends out for dinner and drinks. Gonna give some for charity. Thinking a vacation then putting the rest in savings. Thoughts?

4 mill is for instant lifestyle upgrades (house, cars, renovations, holidays) 5 mill is for a local charity close to my heart - Not sure how I'd set this up 25 mill is for my own personal investment fund, comfortably netting £83k a month at 4%, compound investing the rest 25 mill is for t...

Do you have any specific destinations or even hotel/resorts in mind? Which vibe would you prefer, a 5 star overwater bungalow in the Maldives or backpacking through Europe?

The Powerball drawing tonight is for $905 million dollars. If lightning strikes and I win (and my great-grandfather did die of a lightning strike, so hey), these are my plans. Given my state of residence, I would be netting about 27% of the lump sum to start with - i.e., $244M and change after d...

My Detailed Plan if I won the lottery As stated, this is a (mostly) detailed plan of what I would do if I won a truly massive jackpot in the lottery. This is assuming a post-tax win of around $400m for this scenario in the current jackpot. If it goes up and I win, my plans will adjust. **Prior ...

Is there a jackpot thats you would consider to much? Maybe to much work or trust involved if you win? Let's say i hit the current PB jackpot a part of me would be paranoid as hell thinking i was getting ripped off some how.

How would you claim a huge lottery win in California while 1) maintaining your anonymity as best and economically as you can; and 2) protecting your assets as best and economically as you can. Obviously, I need this info asap, because I'm winning the lottery tonight :-) Here are my "pa...

* **Why does the Lottery Lawyer ask for a picture of the ticket along with the winner’s face before confirming attorney fees?** I’ve seen several YouTube interviews where he requests a photo of the ticket and the winner’s face to verify that the person contacting him is the actual ticket holder...

Lately I've had the lottery on my mind more and more. Every time I run into an issue that requires cash or just going through the mundanity of normal working life, I daydream about what my life would look like if I won. I can already imagine—complete and utter disbelief at looking at my ticke...

Lets look at the #s "$786M" Lump Sum $341M 41% tax (Fed and State): $~200M Generosity: -Current lifetime Federal Gift tax exemption (for a Married Couple) is $30M. -Lets assume I give $20M immediately (non-Charity gifts). Yes, I am generous and WILL be blessing my close frie...

What's your routine for checking your tickets to see if you won? Do you do it immediately as the draw happens or do you like to wait a bit? Personally, I like to wait until the next morning because in my mind I've both won and lost until I check my numbers.

i always read to work with big law firms for lottery wins, so i started thinking. i will most likely go with j.p. morgan, ropes & gray LLC & PwC be good ones to work with? what are ur opinions? j.p. morgan: to hold the majority of my money & grow it over time. ropes & gray LLC: ...

If so, what was that like? I’ve been thinking a lot about what the optics would be like if I were to win a large lottery. Obviously, those around you would notice that your lifestyle has changed even if you try your best to make it less obvious. I wouldn’t live an overly lavish lifestyle, but I ...

I just don't understand why there's a risk of someone murdering you. It's not like friend would get any money from doing so? And why wouldn't you give family some to help them out if it's a lot. Like 10s of millions. I just don't understand what the harm in giving close fa...

For those really waning to live it up - Let’s go through the tiers of spending. If you won 100 mil or more At what level of winnings would you justify buying a 30 mil plus home, a 5 mil, private travel, a yacht car collection etc etc etc

I think about winning literally every day, and more and more I fear I would become paranoid. I would be (even) more reclusive, overly cautious, untrusting… On the other hand I would be more generous, active, and I know I wouldn’t be one of those winners who goes bankrupt by buying stupid shit an...

I generally only get a ticket when I’m running an errand and there’s no other ticket that interests me, the odds are awful and the price is a bit high, so it really is only an occasional buy

congrats you won 1.2 million Now days thats not going far, you dont want to ever have to work again, and thats such an amount you can easily squander it if your not wise A nice piece of property, a new truck, a vacation....a failed business venture.....it can go bye bye very fast in America I...

I buy a powerball ticket every draw, and I love imagining how a win could give me a completely new lease on life or how I would spend the money. I expected the sub to be fun, but it’s actually quite gloomy and dramatic. Not about current problems that would make someone fantasize about winning t...

Let’s say you won low 8 figures a year ago. You have your dream car and home, you’ve travelled a bit… What would a typical weekday look like for you? I try to get that deep into my visualizations to help manifest. I plan on getting a home gym so I’d start working out, and also a loaded worksh...
