Who would you tell at first if you won the 1.8 billion dollar Powerball jackpot?

[Simslover92]

I would only tell my bestie who I would split the money with and my ex who is my best friend now.

I know that might be crazy to tell my ex but I trust him.

[mysteriousNicholas]

simslover92 I'm a reformed gambler.
I only bet on horses once a year 🐎 🐴
And if I ever won the lottery or a windfall 😃 fair and square, I'd save most of it, spend some of it, share it with family and as witness the Day Laughing Buddha, or God or the devil 😈 😄 i'd not tell anyone but family 😋 and I have a feeling since I'm single now, I'd be single even as a winner or not. So no wife or girlfriend to squander it or tell to lol 😂😆 I have no wife or girlfriend ahahahaha -
Anyways, what was the question again ❓ on yeah, winning the lottery - well I'm not American and I for one don't play lotteries - haven't for years now since recovering as a gambler lol 😆 😆 😆

[mysteriousNicholas]

@Simslover92 stay happy and classy 😀☺️

[mysteriousNicholas]

@Simslover92, nope I would only ever trust family 🤭😋😈 and if I didn't have family, then I'd either only trust myself and myself alone, or, give half to my girlfriend / wife, and that's it ☺️🤭😋😈 no more no less 🤑😊💰

[mysteriousNicholas]

@Simslover92 hope you've been well lady 🙏☺️ you've come so far - I hope life continues to bless you well 🙏❤️‍🩹 keep paying those taxes and working most days 😀😉

[Simslover92]

Thanks!

[mysteriousNicholas]

@Simslover92 you're welcome, bless 😁 🫂 I hope October treats you well, people deserve a treat and a restful luxurious break / a taste of the good life 🧬🥳 at least once a year (I saved up for that holiday type vibe or mantra) - and you worked for it. You worked for it. Happy weekend 🎉🥳 cya

[mysteriousNicholas]

*typo Fat Laughing Buddha is one of my deities that I own as a statue of 🗿🗽 praise the wise fat man

[exitseven]

I would tell my wife. Then I would tell my attorney. Maybe later I would tell my kids.

[exitseven]

Thanks for the MHO😎

[Razp_Sorbet]

My parents, give the money to pay off the rest of their mortgage.

Probably wouldn't tell anyone else... but there would be signs

[Beckybooboo]

My soon to be husband. He has a attorney friend and I'm sure that's the first person he would tell lol

[Simslover92]

Lol that's smart

[ohsheeT]

I would tell know one. It's like I collect coins and then probably anywhere.
From 3 to 4 months, maybe 5 months when I finish doing what I'm doing. There are a lot of them that i'm going to put up and have them auctioned off i don't plan on telling any. One but I do plan on helping people

[molonski2]

No one would know that I had won , there would be no need , I would not want superficial. people hanging around.

The chances are so miniscule , it's the biggest rip. off in soft gambling , which is what purchasing a ticket is.

But , it would do wonders for my investment business , creating a very large income stream. PA.

[SamIam96]

I would tell an attorney who I hire to collect the prize money. They'd be responsible for keeping my identity a secret.

[mysteriousNicholas]

@samlam96 a well paid attorney, of course. 🙏🙌😈

[SamIam96]

@mysteriousNicholas lol. I'd have the cash to do that.

[abc3643]

The people who will give me the money. I don't tell anyone shit until the money is in the bank.

[queenofcardio]

My mom. Probably will never happen because I don't ever play the lottery. I don't gamble ever

[NoDecision]

You can't trust anyone when it comes to that much money. You see that in divorces all the time.

[strateguy632]

Nobody. Because people can't be trusted. Suddenly a hundred new "friends" who say they like me but really...

[Seangreen]

I wouldn't tell anybody because it's going to become public information and people are going be contacting you before you can even think of contacting anybody else

[beenherebefore]

My Partner and that's it I wouldn't disclose that type of information to anyone else.

[WhitneySnow]

My immediate family my boyfriend and a couple very close friends

[Static_In_The_Attic]

As for me I would tell the alligator living in the pond behind my house.

[sage2021]

My lips 💋 are seale. I wouldn't tell anyone. It's none ya! None of your business!@

[jshm2]

The lottery operator.

I would tell them I do not want it.

[Xawyx-2]

Most likely just my mom, probably nobody else.

[LiamJHayden]

No one except my financial people. And of course the immediate cash payout i less than 50% of the advertised jackpot.

[Anonymous]

i would tell my brother. I would NOT tell my girlfriend, but I would break up with her if she didn't pay for dinner next time we went out. If she couldn't handle me at my poorest, she doesn't deserve me at my richest!

[douride2]

About the only person I would tell would be my sister.

[PlanZ6]

No one cause people come out the woodworks asking for money.

[MannMitAntworten]

I likely wouldn’t tell anyone. If … I decide to buy a ticket for shits and giggles.

[Mark987]

I would tell my mom... and my closest friends ( like 3 people).

[dragoblack]

My mother. Only one i can trust not to spread that i won. The more that know, the bigger the target on your back.

[shortster]

Nobody. I would announce my retirement at work; and that is about as close to telling people that I won as I would get.

[Ironco]

Tell absolutely no one.

Yet yourself some lawyers, and get yourself straight on the winnings.

[Darkest-Knight]

My Employer. Followed by "I quit".

[mysteriousNicholas]

@Darkest-Knight or realistically, a polite resignation many months after the "successful Powerball win" lol says no one ever ✉️ lol and a sail into the sunset blissfully as "I felt like finding a new job" - lol "as opposed to, boss I won the lottery, I'm out the door" lol 😆😆 - gotta keep things real world professional 😉

[Iron_Man]

I would tell Cat woman and thats you

[Simslover92]

Haha thanks 😊

[Iron_Man]

You’re very welcome 😊

[FreyaRed]

My tax advisor.

[Screenwriter]

My son, my cousins, my accountant.

[Nikki1989]

Probably my husband.

[slatyb]

My wife, then my family.

[HighValue]

I'd only let my mom know. Nobody else.

[Shiprex]

My family and keep it quiet beyond.

[mysteriousNicholas]

@Shiprex preach 🙌🙏 and the good Lord or whatever deity or house of worship - a "private donation" or even a "one off donation" - 😉😔

[mysteriousNicholas]

@Shiprex I mean hell, people get inheritances and or windfalls from property sales, investments - I think there's a lot of churches or religions in the world or even Buddhist temples even that probably get large donors many times a year - whether lottery winners or those who"ll just say "I'm just donating because that's my business lol" or even "well I sold a spare property and I wanted to give back to the good Lord who's blessed me so with a substantial successful auction" lol 😈😀🙌🙏😉

[mysteriousNicholas]

Anyways. Happy Sunday 😀

[Shiprex]

@mysteriousNicholas not me. Superstitious beliefs have never been part of my life.

[fivebyfour]

My financial advisor,,,

[AngryCarl2]

First I'd tell my yacht builder.

[Ariesman81]

An attorney. Followed by a CPA.

[Meatballs]

Are you kidding me id be gone

[Meatballs]

Of course my son and my two besties are coming but anyone else left in my life... Adios muchacos

[whereismyjohnny]

My sister.

[dinojames22]

My (soon to be hired) accountant/tax person

[mysteriousNicholas]

@dinojames22 I'm really impressed how many wise or paranoid people actually answered with 'i almost wouldn't tell nobody, except (lawyers, accountants, family or their only family they have left)". Very fascinating answers 😄📝

My accountant

[mysteriousNicholas]

@jamesgoldman a man of few words, yet wise words. James, if anything, you sound like indeed deserve to be a winner in some lottery someday - you sound like you'd actually use it well, and not blab to every tom and Harry that "you're rich you're rich" 😋🤭🤭☺️
