I always had a fantasy that if I ever won a big lottery I would help out all family and friends. Now though, I have definetely figured out who my friends really are, and I probably would only help out two of my friends, NO family members and of course provide well for my kids. Who would you tell or not tell and why?

hmmmm.. i think im not gonna tell that i won he lottery right away.. i would keep the money then spend some of it with my family and friends then have a vacation alone...after that i have to plan what will i do with the money... invest it for a business or some realty estate which is more valuable later on...so everybody will get surprised!!!!

Just becareful. You would be surprised how money changes people. And usually it's not the person who actually has the money.

LOL - i think everybody has that fantasy :P
In the unlikely event of me winning a small fortune - I wouldnt be able to keep my mouth shut... Such wonderful luck should be shared :)

Consider yourself blessed than to have the kind of family and friends you would "want" to share that with.

If you won over a million you wouldn't have to tell them because they would find out on their own, lol. Read the back of your lottery ticket, it says that the bearer of this ticket agrees to have your photo taken and give interviews if you win.

So I gues that means you try not to buy too many lotto tickets. I think I need to read mine.

I would do the same thing. I would just keep working and pretend I'm just getting by(like ususal). I would however, donate money to local charities, especially the local food banks and an organization here my area that gives homeless children the chance to go school.

Yes i would definitely tell my family and friends because they will all get a piece of it. I would love to have that much money because i will get a chance to help others. Thats something I love to do
