    1) Keep your mouth shut 2) Get an attorney 3) Move & Change your phone # before you claim the prize
  • The first thing I'm going to do is thank God because I knew it was coming. Then I'm going to take a nap because I'm tired. Tomorrow I'm going to wake up and go to work for my last day. Then I'm going to call a lawyer and financial advisor, then after my team is set up, I'm going to turn in the ticket and remain anonymous since my state allows it. After it's all set, I'm going to set up individual funds for my family and give them each a good portion. After that is settled, I'm going to book a trip to Thailand and buy a condo. Relax and figure out what I want to do from there. I will thank God for the financial freedom so that I can complete my actual purpose of connecting with people all over the world telling my story and letting them know that God is real. ❤️✨
  • Max here. I know what I am doing if I win that whopping $1.25 BILLION MM jackpot this Friday. I am sharing it big time! 🍀😀
  • @poseidon3201
    I receive the advice and will apply it to my life very soon when it happens for me.THANKS 💲
  • @Divine-pg1wm
    Congratulations to all the winners out there🎉🥳
  • I wouldn't tell a soul if I won the lottery. Don't get why anyone would want to go public and subject themselves to envy, jealousy, requests for money and dangerous characters coming after their money. I would help out my loved ones, but would pick a stock that exploded, and explain I made money from investing in that stock.
  • @chosenyung
    I will use the money to help as many people as i can
