Uh.. I'm not going to say anything, cause the chances of someone like ME winning the lottery are nil.
I don't buy lottery tickets; they're just a scam.

I would contact a tax-finance attorney. You will be taxed about 46% federal and state. Then I would have the lawyer set up an LLC. That way the public record of the win would be under that company name and no one could find me without a diligent search. Then I would set up trusts for friends and family. Otherwise, I would convert some into gold coins and put some in cash in safety deposit boxes. Then I would probably just travel for a year. Keep people off my back. Finally, I would decide where to settle and write some books.

I'd call my husband and tell him to come home and to make sure he brings his stuff with him. Then I would call a lawyer and ask what I should do.
Then I'll drive over to the Mercedes Dealership and pick up a silver 500 SL and drive around in it while contemplating a trip to fuji or Bora bora. Then I'd take it from there.
I must admit that my conscience would kick in pretty quickly and I would give a good chunk to my favorite charities.

I would buy my mother and brother a home of there own, then i would pay off my own. New car sounds good too. I would also buy a peice of property and put a community pool in with all the bills paid for a couple years.

Pay the taxes on it - so I don't go to jail later before I spend it all
Then I would buy me a house and give my kids and sister some money and invest the rest
I might need a bigger jackpot lol

I'd finish school, pay off student loan, buy a house, car, new wardrobe, donate to some good charities and help out some friends and family.

I'm too poor to buy lottery tickets.
But, if somehow I did win I'd buy a house, a car, and I'd pay off my grandmothers' medical bills.
