I'd like to share my thoughts on "Jackpot Summer" by Elizabeth Friedland, a book I just finished reading yesterday. It is about 3 siblings who buy a lottery ticket despite struggling financially. They win, but have trouble managing their newfound wealth. Have you ever bought a lottery ticket? If you won a lot of money, how would you manage your finances?

That's totally understandable. Even if you've never won, its still fun to imagine how you'd manage a big windfall. What do you think would be the first thing you'd do if you won the lottery?

Hmmm..
I think I would clear my debts first if there's any, support my family, purchase all I want and than travel to my favorite country ltaly.

Lottery Tickets
Well I bought tickets when the lottery started all those years ago.
Never won anything of note
We have quite a lot of money now and we manage our finances ok
We have no debt

I would make sure I had money for all I needed and wanted to do and then perhaps also donated some,
