If the jackpot win was 30 mil, I would take the 15 mil payoff after taxes but first I would hire a financial team and set up a trust fund so that my financial team could go and claim the winnings under that.

Once that was accomplished I would instantly pay myself a set amount and take a 60-90 day traveling retreat of sorts to allow the adrenalin and shock of it all to settle back down. The rest would be placed in a short term cd to await my return.

I would also use that time to finalize my business plans. About half would be invested, hopefully wisely.

I would donate to some organizations on my list which include GLBT, domestic violence, and child abuse organizations.

I would buy a suitable house with land for me and Bear to live in, and likely get a new truck and donate the one I have now. I would set up trust funds for a couple of kids that I know to make sure they have the opportunity for college should they desire it.

I would definitely spend a good portion helping those who want to help themselves, not those looking for a hand out.

And I would buy a lifetime membership to the Planet
