You’ve Won The Lottery, What’s Your Next Move?
People not only in Montana, but around the country dream about winning the lottery whether it's a state lottery or the big powerball or mega millions. People dream about how they would spend it, how their worries would wash away the instant their numbers pop up magically on TV or a newspaper.
Other people are scared of such things. As Biggie Smalls once said, "Mo money, mo problems." They fear people from any ilk will convince you to let go of your fortune and one day you're back to square-one finding a job.
The internet asks many questions and today someone asked Reddit, "If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you would do?"

Some of the most popular answers were to buy a house or pay off debts. I've always thought about it, In my perfect world, I would wipe my parent's debts first, and then my own.
Others dream of fast cars, businesses, finding love, or going on super-lit vacations to far away lands. Most people just want to live regular lives without worrying about a house or a car payment, or to have food in their kids' bellies and clothes to put on them. Some believe that they can finally breath with some cash saved up.
There's also the smart side of things. Obtaining the proper legal team for planning and asset safety. Quite a few people agree that anonymity is key, getting away and only communicating with people they can truly trust.
Saving and investing to make the money work for you seems to be the consensus with people and also seems to be the logical answer.
However, in this Hypothetical scenario it's your money and you're free to do what you want with it.
So, what's your next move?
