IF you won $5 million in the lottery, which of these actions would be the first you would take?

If you won a lot of cash in a lottery, I am sure there would be many things you would want to do, but what would be the first????  * evil smile *

dance of happiness, definitely!

After that, call a lawyer and/or accountant... invest it in something conservative so we can live off the interest ...buy a couple nice pinball machines... wife would quit her job, buy some Jeep things (long-arm suspension and lift kit), and start a reef aquarium .... give some to charities we like... maybe help setup college funds for our nieces... buy a better digital camera... I don't think I'd change what I do for a living, but I might just make it all free with no ads. Car, I don't know... I love my little Honda Civic...

Probably give 1/2 of it to the government in taxes.

Then buy a house and take some classes. Radiology Technician!

contact a lawyer so i don't do anything stupid; that would be the first thing. then i would do a series of things at once-get blind stinking drunk and call up my ex and say, "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!", give my family and friends some cash, pay my bills, buy a house and a car, donate some to charity, and invest enough so i can live comfortably and my kids' future will be set.

I am not sure what I would do. I would be in such a state of shock considering that I never play the lottery.

1. Quit my job (with sufficient notice, of course).
2. Hire a lawyer to help me place my money.
3. Get my butt out of debt.
4. Build a nice new home.

These are my four priorities, then I would think about the more fun and leisure things in life.  * smile *

Put it in a mutual fund and never work unless I enjoyed it.
Probably eventually donate some (I would have to really think out where, though!)
