What if you've won a huge amount in the lottery? I'm sure you won't be able to contain your excitement. I can imagine if it was me, i would be all jumpy and wouldn't know what to do first. What's the first thing you want to do?

I would probably look at the receipt/ticket over and over. Maybe even sleep with it....probably put it in a safe place for the night. I'd look at it, check the numbers again and again. I think I would be in shock. I don't believe I would call anyone immediately. The next morning, I would get a tax advisor/financial advisor. Then I would contact the authorities to redeem it.

I know exactly what I would do! I would pay off all of my debt! All of it! I would buy a big piece of land build my dream home not a mansion but a Nice Big house, I would take care of all the kind and just people I know My True friends and they would not worry about stress of money and bills, Then I would tryto better the world in someway start a foundation or work locally to improve my community! i think My local city needs helkp and support and it would be great ! I would help charity, and churches in my nieghborhoods too.

If I won the lottery I would not know what to do, because I would have so many thoughts running through my head. The first thing I would do is call my husband and tell him to put his 2 week notice in. I would love to travel across the United States in a moterhome.
