OK, so after taxes, you get about 1/2 of the total. You take the lump sum. Other than place it somewhere for safe keeping ( like a bank or brokerage house ) what is the very first thing you do with your new found wealth? I take about 350K and set it aside for my twins college tuition. Maybe even 500K. ( One wants to attend Duke, and the other UNC - Chapel Hill ..... not cheap by any means ) That is what I do.... how about you?

While I'm too young to get some tickets, I'm gonna pay my 24 year old friend to split the winnings so we can buy some tickets.
I would do exactly what I'm doing now, making games. I'd hire a bunch of people to work at RareSloth, create bigger and better games, and hire marketing firms.
