        Hope they invest their money wisely. It’s shocking how many lottery winners go bankrupt from being money crazy. Stay quiet, hire an attorney, and invest wisely.

        Just take the lump sum and enjoy the rest of your life! That money SHOULD cover 3+ generations within one’s family easily.

        Depends on how wise or dumb the winner is and how many relatives the winner has.

        i mean i would still think realistically that would cover more than three generations. i mean you could literally put that in the bank and live off the interest.

        That would be nice, but past examples of many winners around the world might often suggest otherwise. A yacht, several mansions, lots of sports cars, a private jet, and woops the money’s gone. And imagine all those wealth management bankers trying to squeeze money from the winner
