    So if win the $640 million, you take the 26 year payment, have a good accountant and lawyer, you'll only loose 30% to taxes. What would you do with $17.2 million a year? $1.4 Million a month.

    For me, I would give more than half away to charities, foundations, and universities. I would promote scientific research. The rest I would split reasonably with family, like give them a modest sum, and the rest would be carefully managed in multiple money market accounts, stock portfolios, and have only about 1% to spend which is $173,000 a year which is within the earning potential of my major, so I wouldn't be someone who I am not.

    The lottery curse it kinda weird... Usually, if you're used to having little money, then all of a sudden, you come into a large sum of cash, you never learned how to manage money correctly and just piss it away, but I feel since I came from an upper middle class family, I feel I can manage my fortune if I were to win...

    Not buying a ticket on account of being a Canadian Resident. If I were to win the lottery on upwards of 25 million I'd start up a nice company, give some to family, give a couple million to the the ski patrol here, and snowboard everyday.

    As cool as winning would be, I'd be worried about all the negative shit after. Getting extorted for money, possibly kidnapped, the never ending phone calls / letters. Although, once you win, a simple address and name change could fix all that I suppose.

    That is just asking for trouble. I would have my lawyer claim the prize for me, and be as completely anonymous as I can. I don't want harassment, beggars, and attention from all that cash.
