    keep quiet (I know I could)
    get a good lawyer (I have one)
    get a financial adviser (maybe the lawyer could point me in the direction of one)

    and some other discreet actions that I would take because I'm a paranoid fucker.

    I should check my tickets, 3 people won the $250K in my state.

    I went to the store as soon as they opened the other day...nobody in line.

    fuck pancakes!
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    local wawa store has a sign near their lotto machine saying CHECK YOUR TICKETS someone bought a ticket from here and won 350,000 and it has not been claimed yet (or some similar amount to that)

    wouldn't be me, i rarely if ever play


    but that's exciting! so.... i did NOT buy my tix there....weird? i figure lightening doesn't strike twice in the same place?
    peace,

    If I won, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't even call my work to tell them that I quit. I would just stop showing up.

    I just want the lump sum after taxes so I can spend the rest of my life managing my portfolio and making investment decisions

    My thoughts exactly. I'll take the lump sum and just do whatever the hell I want for the rest of my life and hire people to take care of everything.

    Youd get bored after a while (or at least I would). This would keep it interesting and if managed properly, the principle could be maintained for generations. That's how new money becomes old money. 9 out of 10 lottery winners declare bankruptcy.

    Not saying I wouldn't enjoy myself or travel a bunch (probably do all 30 MLB ballparks), but I'd like to be able to put my education to work.

    hey, the best part when you have this much money is you can literally do whatever you want!

    I'd run my family's foundation, put a lot of money into it to make it a big deal, and go from there. Make my own hours. Have a few places, season tickets to the Yanks, house somewhere tropical and do as I see fit.
