If you win the lottery of over 20 Million Dollars, what is the very first thing you would do ( just the first thing )?

I would create a trust so that I remain anonymous. I do not want to have every half baked charity pester me to death.

Thanks for the MHO

Form an LLC and let that claim the ticket.

Your question doesn't ask what I'd do with the money. I win the lottery as soon as the numbers are chosen. So the first thing I would do is... re-check them to confirm.

@Calyptomaniac Yes. That’s what I meant. What in the very first thing you’d do and you have answered it. Thanks

Hire a tax lawyer. Hire a fiduciary wealth manager. Wait a year to do anything fun. Probably bounce around with 3 month rental apartments and drive around.

Pay off all my debts. I think the rest is just enough to get me a Vente Café Mocha at Starbucks.

Pay tax. So at 37% tax on a lotto win that will leave $12.4 out of $20.

I would consult with a trusted attorney and find a safe place to put that money.
