The first thing I'd do is put my winnings in a trust. Then I would pay off every debt I owe, that's even going through my credit reports and making sure it's 100 % clear. Then I would donate to my church and probably some local food banks, because it sucks when you look in your cupboard and there is nothing there. I would also make sure the food banks have cat and dog food available for those people in need because if people are struggling to feed themselves and their families they are most certainly having trouble coming up with money to buy their pets' food.

Then I would give my Mom and step dad money, they're not poor but they are on a budget and screw that! They have given to me and done without, so the favor would be repaid. They would never have to worry about money again. Ever. I would also take care of my close family members. They are all good loving people. I've been very blessed to have such wonderful step brothers and sisters. My one blood brother and his wife would be well taken care of because when I was down and out they took me in, fed me, gave me a room with no board and never once complained. They showed me kindness that you really only read about in stories. It's a humbling thing, really. So I would want to make sure they were set for life.

I don't have a ton of friends but the ones I do have have been so wonderful. I'm really blessed with my friends so I would take care of them like they took care of me.

Then the fun would begin. Oh yeah, a new truck. A new house on the lake. A boat. I would probably work but I'd open a bait shop. There would also be lots and lots of fishing vacations.
