I would give most of it to charity...buy myself a new car and a home of my own...

You are right about the gum -- she looked like a cow chewing the cud. You would think the lottery people would have given her a once over before she got on camera.

Security would be an issue too, people do crazy things.

@CANDLEQUEENFamily members you have not seen or heard from in years would suddenly be your best friend.

I actually felt rather bad for that woman. She seemed very unsophisticated and I couldn't help but wonder how long she will have that money before unscrupulous people take advantage of her naivety. I hope it brings her a little pleasure for a while.

We knew a couple who won $6,000,000 some years ago.. I know that doesn't compare, but they kept a low profile. They set up trust funds, bought a new car and made needed upgrades to their existing home. Life went on pretty much as before, just more security and spendable money.

i wouldn't claim it until I had plans in place. I wouldn't sleep until that ticket was turned in either. Lol
