I think that is the good thing about lottery winners that they keep their feet on the ground. However I think their safety is being compromised. I hope no bad guys will take advantage of them. Indeed the winners have a lot to take in for winning huge amount of prize.

Allowing adults to spend crazily didn't make much sense to me when I first heard this.

There is a huge difference between exercising and exorcising.

When you're given a certain amount of money to spend on things, it (apparently) curbs the need to overspend later on. It doesn't remove that need, but it helps to control it.

Allowing adults to spend crazily didn't make much sense to me when I first heard this.

I don't think adults with a windfall are any better at impulse control than a kid in a toy store. But it's all about psychology

No...I see the need for her to have attorneys and planners. She has kids, grandkids and great grandkids she probably wants to leave a lot of money for and would probably want them to not get stiffed by too many unnecessary taxes. That makes sense to me.

Greetings haymaker. Thanks for the welcome.

Not sure of the logic behind that sort of advice. No doubt spending sprees are defined differently by folks. Some may buy real estate, watercraft, expensive autos, designer clothes and jewelry, art, or just stuff and other junk while other people may utilize the spree to pay off debt, address health issues, or set asides for college funds, vacation, etc.

Like most things in life and economics, it boils down to individual context and preferences,

Welcome, Frostednostrals, LOL cool name,

regarding your last paragraph,

Let's also not forget that when she was spotted doing Walmart and eating Crazy Egg cafe, it hadn't even been two weeks. The check probably wasn't even received or deposited in her bank yet. Takes a few weeks for security checks and consolidating money from al the states, etc. I'd be conservative too until I actually saw the money in the bank.

Are you saying that someone recommends lottery winners go on a crazy spending spree after receiving the payout? If so, who is this person, and what is the purpose?

If my adviser recommended a spending spree to me, I d find a new adviser. Spending sprees are counter to financial discipline. Sprees feed impulses and serve as psychological rewards that tend to foster more bad financial behaviors where people end up buying things with artificial appeal rather than appreciable value. It

I don't think I even implied that, nor should ANYONE do that. All you need to do is watch a couple episodes of American Greed to see how the wrong financial advisor can wipe you out. Even seemingly honest people turn corrupt when large sums of money are involved.

But all the interviews I've seen with financial advisors of lottery winners, they say they give them a certain amount of the winnings and tell them to go crazy with it, because after that they'll be on a budget.

Does it mean that you are surrendering control of your money to your financial adviser or whoever you hire? That's scary. I wouldn't feel comfortable with that at all.

Well, THAT's the trillion dollar question. What's next?

40% on $1M seems fair until you're the one having to pay that 40%. Doesn't seem all that fair then. Overtaxing the middle class is is like shooting yourself in the foot and taxing the lower class is moot. Though the weight of the country cannot be carried upon the backs of a few. But no one wants what they feel strongly about to get cut. No one wants to make the hard decisions. So the impasse continues.

I guess I'm not seeing what one has to do with the other. Income tax predates Jesus and Jesus never had a problem with income tax collection. Which is probably why the church doesn't argue it either.

The Boston tea party didn't occur because people didn't want to pay taxes (though this wasn't income but more about importation taxes), it happened because they felt if they had to pay taxes they were owed representation.

They must be giving a Pulitzer Prize for her story. I know everything about this lady and never met her.

Walmart huh?

I haven't won any major jackpot prize and I still don't shop at Walmart. Why waste your hard earned money on products of bad quality much less waste a giant winfall of money on bad quality products?

...maybe it is just the Walmarts here.

I second that... I hope this works out for them... we all dream about winning the big one and most have a strong desire to claim the winning anonymously and yet all can't... especially when its this BIG... getting threats, random photos of you posted on the web while minding your own business... and folks that know little to nothing about you publicly criticizing every move you make... sounds like fun eh?

What a nightmare! Let the lady eat in peace. I certainly wouldn't want someone following me around in my 1995 Saturn and reporting that I had Weinerschniztel hot dogs for lunch then stopped at AM/PM for gas. Pathetic. Alright already. We know who won....I don't need to know when she stops at the drugstore to pick up some aspirin....now let's get back to business.

I agree Cin.

There is no need for this woman to go to Tiffany's or Rodeo Drive to buy toilet paper, deodorant, soap and soup. You get those things at the grocery store or Walmart, Target, Kmart, Sam's Club, Costco etc.....

I think some people are being unrealistic.

I work at a tennis club and some customers there are millionaires and they go to the supermarket just like the rest of us.

Go figure!!

Even Arnold Swarzenegger and Britney Spears shop at Walmart. It only makes sense and... [ More ]
