        I hope this winner is related to me! Or that they are a close friend! But then I do have that one brother in Florida! Hmm?

        He should have taken the payments, in a trust. He's only 20. Good for him though. I hope he has good financial advisors that will not rip him off and a very strong support system. Congrats kid!

        Put the great majority of the full lump sum in various stocks & other investments & then collect on the interest. He’d make a good chunk of the money back pretty well. I’d take the lump sum too.

        I don't know anything about having that much money. I'd definitely want to just live off the interest. If you don't know what to invest in then how do you start? Financial advisor? Knowing myself, I'd research a thousand and then be indecisive on what to do. Too many choices.

        Yeah, you’d definitely need a financial advisor, especially if you’re 20 years old.

        At 20, I blew thru money like eating chocolate during my the time of month. I look back now and think man I was so dumb. I had no bills and pissed it all away. Told my kids not to do what I did. My stepson(19) is in the USAF, first job. He's blowing every paycheck on crap. /sigh
