    The #1 thing you should never tell people when you win the lottery, is that you won the lottery. Just give absurd answers every time

    The difference, of course, would be that I would actually be telling the truth if I had won the lottery.

    I would still work. So I would just be honest. I can’t possibly imagine how fucking bored i would be without work, it would just give me the freedom to do work I actually want to do. And tell shitty bosses where to shove it.

    Consultant, if you feel the need to claim anything but the truth. It is such a vague, meaningless term. If they ask for more detail, throw in some meaningless jargon and and them about themselves.

    I manage some investments. Seriously though, that’s how I would stretch that lotto win.

  126. gomickyourself222 Avatar

    Do you know what I would do? Like HONESTLY would do? I would just save it, and add more to it over the next couple of years. If you won THAT MUCH MONEY, what would be better? Spending it all on a nice house and nice cars, or saving it and just keep adding to it so you can have more in the future? What I mean by adding to it, is putting it in a bank account and not touching it UNLESS YOU PHYSICALLY HAVE TO. You can still buy shit but it’s gonna be from your ALREADY paycheck. When you’re old and gray wouldn’t you want to be able to DO ANYTHING YOU WANT AND ACTUALLY HAVE THE MONEY FOR IT? Or would you want to go back to work in your 60’s 70’s just to afford rent?
