Just like the topic above. If you win the lottery and get $5 millions. What are you going to deal with it. Quit your job, then buy a new car or what else.

I think I would probably use part of it to work less. I wouldn't quit my job completely, but who wouldn't want to work less? I would invest the rest in real estate, which I am very interested in anyway, and I also think it is a great investment.

For sure i will not be telling anybody. I will be on stealth. I will be investing in a big business. buy A house that is enough for me and my family and a decent but not that expensive car. Share some to my family (parents and siblings) with out telling them. Have a very considerable amount for time deposits and savings. For sure Give the right portion to God for whom I believe comes all things. 5M is a lot of money. I will enjoy some of it without compromising the future. I guess the dreaming and planning is easy, the having hmmm...Only God knows.

Lol, good idea. I almost forget that the most important thing is make sure your money is safe first.

I don't have to quit my job but I I should be gonna doing is to invest part of it in a trust fund for future use for family purposes. And some of it will be given to a charity foundation or institution that I once helped in some way. It's a big money to be wasted by my own self and gratification, I should be giving it back or share it to people who needed it most.

I would give some of the money to charity. Buy, a new car, a decent house, and put the rest of the money in savings. As far as quitting the job, I'm not sure. I would want to keep the job just in case something happens to that money, god forbid..lol

if given a chance of once in a lifetime Millionaire., Well, of course, I will quit my job (and give others the chance of having my job), give half of it for my children's future. the 1/4 is for starting a business the 1/8 of it for the charity works and 1/8 left for our brand new house and lot and a car.
