If I won the lottery, I'd definitely hire that accountant as well as a lawyer. My inclination would be to pay off every debt I owe and then invest a large amount. I'd help out family members, and then fix up my own house. I know my lifestyle would change, but I can't really see quitting my job altogether--working is something I love and it grounds me. I'd probably work less hours so I could travel more, and spend more time with family. I don't think I'd be the person that spends it all and ends up broke.
I don't play regularly. Once in a while, someone gives me a scratch-off ticket, and sometimes, on a whim, we buy a Powerball ticket. Never won more than a few bucks on a scratch-off.
