  I am not sure if this is in the forum anywhere.

   

  First thing I would do is the first one.  Talk to lawyer, accountant(one of my dads friends),  advisor.

  Go to dentist to get work done on my mouth.  Help my dad pay a refinanced mortgage off.  Yeah some people make a bad move back years ago.

  Then go to spring break,  las vegas, cancun.

   I will have a Trust & Estate attorney create a Living Revocable Trust for me and family.

   Then I will need a Financial Adviser to answer many questions that I still have.

  I would go along with Music*'s choice, though I'm not clear on what "revocable" means.

  • Don't chase the numbers you play.
    
  • Play only numbers you've already played, plus however many random picks.
    
  • But, ALWAYS the regular numbers you play.  This will make you a winner, not a chaser.
             (so far, though, I've yet to win any significant lotto prize)
    
  • Oh, but always know where your tickets are, as well as your ticket's deadline.

  If you have been around long enough, you know that if/when you win a jackpot, that you need to contact a lottery lawyer and financial adviser.

  You don't want to go telling everyone you won and then have to fend them off when they come asking for some.

  Quitting work would depend on the size of the win. If it was a substantial amount, then heck yeah, I'm quitting.  That doesn't mean I won't work, doing something myself, it just means that I quit working for someone else

  Before even checking the numbers read the instructions on the back of the ticket and it will probably suggest the first thing you do is sign the ticket.

  Groppo, Revocable means that you can change your mind and end the trust. An irrevocable trust is one where you cannot change your mind and you must live with it for the rest of your life.

   With a Living Revocable Trust, you can add assets or take them out of the trust. I do not know how much work it takes to change the trust.

   If I win tonight I might just cash in the next business day and then look for a Trust & Estate Lawyer during the four weeks that I will have to wait for my check. Here in California.
