My uncle won $200,000 and he bought foreclosed homes, sold them for triple the price and now he's at almost $600,000. He also invested in a few local restaurants. Hope I will be as smart as him if I win the lottery.
First rule of winning the lottery is don't tell anybody ! second rule is Don't tell anybody ! third rule is Don't tell anybody ! fourth rule is get out of town quick ! fifth rule is don't tell anybody !!!!
If you ever win don't tell anyone. Go to all your friends/family and ask to borrow $100. If they don't have a hundred ask if they have anything to loan you. If they don't give you anything, don't give them anything.
+Goose StayTune the point is that they can have something, 5, 10, 20. most of the people in our lives probably wouldn't loan or give money away, but when someone comes into a lot of money people expect to get some. This is just a way to weed out the moochers.
So the people who don’t have much money should lend some out? And the person with the money shouldn’t lend any out unless the poorer person does first? If someone needs something they should give away the little they have? A starving person should give away their last food before asking for something to eat from someone who has more than he can eat?
+Oggy Oggy Way to misinterpret everything I said. If you suddenly come into millions you'll suddenly have people that you now "owe" them something. Those who have mountains of debt have it because they live outside their means. Is it your responsibility to bail them out? Is it your responsibility to buy everyone you know, or who knows [of] you a car or house? Or things they just want to have? Simply because you have it? Seriously, read the context before trying to sound so pious.
When I win the lottery, I'm going to make up a story about how I lost everything too. That way, I won't have to worry about people asking me for money.
You missed the one in FL, who won a few million. He was homeless at the time. He got a female friend to help him manage his money. She killed him, buried him in her backyard, and spent all the money. She is now in jail.
Alot of people (not all, of course) are poor because of their mindset. This illustrates this perfectly. Hand them millions, and they still end up poor. My life changed drastically for the better when I realized most every problem in my life was my own fault.
I agree to a degree. People have expectations of their lifestyle and try to meet them. When you're used to being broke most of the time and having a few spare dollars will results in treating yourself to something nice, then without a mindset change you'll continue on that path. Chose the lifestyle you want to live and just find a way,... it improves lifestyle immensly, with zero extra money. Life is a battle regardless of how you live, so you may as well live better.
But nobody should have trouble managing 350mil at least to the point of never having to worry about money... Just sitting in a damn savings account it would bring in millions per year.
You put trust in someone else to manage your money and it doesn’t work for those who are instantly wealthy. Prime example NBA player Kevin Garnett lost $70mill to his advisor.
I've given this a lot of thought. 1. Do NOT publicize yourself as winner and wait a few weeks or a month to collect. THIS is the hard part. 2. Don't tell a soul until you've got an attorney, a financial planner and a CPA on RETAINER. Ask around for an attorney you can trust. Ask him his retainer fee FIRST. Pay him more. Ask for HIS financial planner. Pay HIM his retainer, plus a bit more. Same with the CPA. For the love of all that is holy do NOT tell your family and friends you've won until you've got yourself set. And NEVER tell ANYONE the amount. 3. Take a preset sum and buy Greta Garbo's Garter Belt, a solid gold swizzle stick or whatever stupid stuff you've always wanted. Get it out of your system. 4. Take another bit and give it to charities, family or whoever. 5. Find safe investments and live off the interest. The last guy in this list, with over a hundred million, could have EASILY had 2-3 million a year coming in from safe investments. Don't be an idiot. LET THE MONEY WORK FOR YOU!
Hmm well... 1.) Wait a few weeks or a month to collect -> Increased chance of losing the ticket. I'd say collect ASAP and put the money on multiple bank accounts. THEN wait a few weeks/months. 2.) Mostly agree. But go to the financial planer of your attorney? Mmmh. Somehow I wouldn't want to take the risk of the attorney and the financial planner being in cahoots with each other. Also, why one? Ok, it depends on the sum - but perhaps it'd be better to have 2 financial planners instead of one. Let one take care of one half of your money, and the other will care for the other. Have them invest in different industrys, that are indepent from each other. Less losses if one of them messes up. Just some minor nitpicks. Can't really argue with 3, 4 and 5. ;) Thumbs up.
Valid point on the financial planner and possible collusion with the attorney. As far as collecting and then waiting, the vast majority of people wouldn't be able to fight the urge to start spending it.
oh dont worry you would have hundreds of friends afterwards, they would be comng out of the woodwork, seriously people that you went to first grade with would be calling you and asking for loans! you would become VERY popular, instantly
Money is the only legal, highly desired and _willing_ slave since its invention in ancient Middle-Eastern times. It has been known to work tirelessly and even very happily when whipped hard by compound interest!
Smart people do win. Being smart they do not publicize who they are, how much they won and retain the best to manage anything that needs managing. You never hear about them because they are smart.
MrSuperbasshunter Probably because smart people generally don't play the lottery. Not to mention you wouldn't hear about the ones who are smart with the money
you could live nicely off the interest . thus proving why some are rich and most are poor. if you don't understand money you will never be wealthy no matter how much you are given.
i dont see how you can spend all of that. Lets say you win 10 million and you figure you are going to live another 50 years. you can give yourself $200,000 a year to live on, WAY more then most people have.
Ya but you are assuming you will live 50 years. Life happens, you could die any day. So now you have all this money and think you should make the most everything you do. All the best things in life because you can't take it with you.
Randolph Agarn If I won $25 Mill from the lottery first thing I’d buy is a 8 Mill Mansion In Beverly Hills and I’d buy a SMALL 2 MILL JET and Buy me a 2017 Ferrari F430 and a 2017 Lambo Huracan and a 2018 BMW X5 and I would own someone Business I’d pay the CEO 5 - 7 MILL for something like the HOLLISTER brand and I’d buy a Custom GOLD 2017 Audi R8 and a Mercedes MayBach and I’d invest rest of my money into some Hotels / Casinos so I can have free rooms and I’d go on a 3 million dollar shopping spree and stop shopping after that I’d buy 10 VVS DIAMOND CHAINS and GUCCI LV and VERSACE and Saint Laurent and lots more and I’d party Like a rockstar...
The power ball is around 1.6 BILLION this week! 😨 I hardly never play but maybe I'll throw in $5.. I think I'll get it!! ** I'll give an update if I win!!** UPDATE! *I didn't win...*
My family never plays, we already have lots of money, but my dad was saw it was 1.6 Billion and was like screw it! Wanna go get some tickets? So I went to get some haha highly doubt we'll win. But the good thing is, we already have our own charity organization and one of our family values is to give back to the community where our businesses are, as we would have no customers and no business if it weren't for them, so a lot of the money would actually go back into the community. We aren't selfish assholes with our money like some people. So if we win, everyone wins! If anyone wants to throw me some of your luck that'd be awesome haha
I think you're thinking of the Megamillions. If you live in a higher populated area, I would say go for it, but there is little success in rural areas. I was fortunate to cash in a $400 winner for a friend, but that was the only big win I had seen from it in almost a year and a half of working where I do.
Hmm..............I'd invest most of it in low risk yet diversified places. Then, I'd buy a plot of land in the middle of nowhere, build a 5-7 bedroom house with 5-7 baths, pretty big but not a mansion, but I'd make it with that concrete insulation that is super energy efficient and make the house self sustaining using a mix of wind, sun, and possibly hydro depending on what water access rights I'd have to the river running through my land (yes, that's a requirement). Also use geothermal cooling and heating. Have a big garage and a big barn where I can work on projects. 50's chevy truck and rebuilt it on a 1990's 4x4 chassis. Maybe a newer truck just for back up. That'd be it. 2 vehicles, a decent house that is self sustaining, and investments. Oh, and a nice library in the basement of my house with a huge leather chair and big oak desk where I can read for hours on end without being disturbed.
investing in becoming a loan shark , ooops i meant a banker . even though most peoples dreams are a waste of time i would still like to help them achieve that dream . being a banker is the only way to do it while benefiting both .
If I win the lottery when I was in my early 20's I can see me blowing out but now that I'm in my late 20's I'd invest it into what I'm already investing in and double that shit.
@@lawrenceshdow my dad is a multimillionaire. He's gotten lottery tix just a few times in his life as a fuck around, not to actually win. If you waste your money on this shit you'll never grow wealth.
Just live lifeeeee man. Money comes and goes. These people had amazing experiences and they should have no regrets. Never trust family after a windfall of money. Never
Me too and I've never had any trouble with the law, not even a traffic ticket. That kinda money would make all us average working class joes at least consider stealing it. I mean that's half a mil right there. I've seen youtube vids of gas stations getting robbed for 30 bucks, 500k would make a saint into a sinner real quick.
i knew gerald muswagen. his suicide had nothing to do with the lottery. his wife and daughter were already very sickly and died close together, so he took his own life from the grief. and he left a 1 mil. trust for his son who is doing well for himself today.
He's my biological father and he only gave me $20 and just a visit to the hopsital as an infant because he beat me and broke my arm. Last time I saw him was in 2004 after helping me load my big screen tv into my home that I bought myself. I find it funny that he helped everyone in his family except his first born.
I was never about the money he knew that, just shitty situation. And there's nothing to check into, His sister Brenda knows who I am, If I wanted something I would have done something about it lol just ranting that he was a shitty person.
One thing was Tyson had a habit of wrecking uber-expensive cars frequently. He always bought them new and sometimes sold the cars just because he was "bored" with them. That's an easy way to blow through several million bucks when you have Ferraris, Rolls Royces and other high end brands in a gigantic multicar garage. He even had his house built with a HUGE indoor swimming pool and the back yard was redone with a concrete path for his pet tiger. Yes, the crazy guy had a pet tiger so he had to pay someone to build a large cage for it.
Just Another Memer Na. I’m WAAAAY 2 simple of a person 2 blow it. NOT into name brands, NOT into jewelry, NOT into cars and NOT into lavish crazy mansions. Been over it 2 many times in my mind. 1 regular car and one really nice travel huge van 4 big family trips. A decent home 5 rooms tops with big yard of course. The only “splurge” would be travel. That’s it. Nothing more needed.
Its not that hard either. Don't spend anything the first year, then have a maximum amount of money you can spend a year. And keep your job for 2 years after winning. So your not reallly losing money.
Isabelle Is My Soulmate I love sleeping too , but it's crucial to get out there & enjoy life . Experience the company of others etc ...... you can get up at the crack of noon and still live 👍
Isabelle Is My Soulmate lol but being alone isn’t fun tho man fuckin feel so cold and I never knew what that meant until recently same as that numb shit when someone said they were numb I’d be confused but I now know what they mean
Did tht for 4 years as I work from home 4 hours on pc get paid mad good. It sucks got old. More sleep made me more tired I'd sleep 14 hr a day and wake up for 10 . Pretty cool but then I got bored and depressed now all I want to do is make money and work. Like I said did that for years .
Why don’t you ever here of stories where a hard working person wins, retires at age 35 and simply plays video games for the rest of there lives 😂 cuz that’s what I would do 👍🏻
I think Sharon was the smartest one out of all of these people. At least She helped out for family & friends & put money up for her children. I salute her.
Be careful when’ donating money to charities. A lot of them keep a hefty percentage for themselves and only a small percentage goes to the cause. “Operating expenses” I think they call them
I drove some ladys from Argintina in my Limo. for week. What a bunch of cheapys . ! The Client kept hitting on me. Thats a NoNo . . anyway shopping at Rodeo Drive and last minute on a Friday I drove them to Disneyland for fireworks and they got in for free cuz they knew somebody and did they invite me no they didn't and they said we will be out at 10 . out at 2 a.m. didn't tip me then squabble about the price and how much it cost them and I asked her what do they do for a living that shopping and going here Beverly Hills ? Oh I own a Childrens Charity in my Country .FIGURES ! . I SAID .SORRY FIND SOME ONE ELSE TO DRIVE YOU !
Good for the foster kid her life was crap and no one obviously taught her how to save or spend. So when she won she granted her own wishes. After losing it all she has 3 beautiful kids and finally realizes how rich she is
I don't get why Callie is always on these,"Loser Lottery Winners," lists. Callie was a MINOR when she won. Her Foster Parents should have been the ones to seriously curb her reckless spending habits.
There's some strategy involved with winning a large lottery. Unlike America, Australian lottery draws allow the winners to be anonymous, paid in a lump sum, and it isn't taxed. If you do win the big one, here's some handy hints of what you should put in your contingency plan: 1. KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. If you start buying a lot of expensive toys, people will ask questions. Don't tell anyone you can't trust to keep quiet about it, and that includes family members. If associates and family are suddenly nice to you, be sure to ask why. 2. Move. While you might like your neighbourhood, visualise what a comfortable house would look like for you. If your answer is "a 50 room mansion," you haven't thought it through. For me it would be a 5 bedroom house, with some big sheds, but surrounded by some acreage. Why? Because it's peaceful, your neighbours can't spy on you, and if you feel the urge to crank up your music at 2am, not a problem 3. Diversify investments. Say you had a $20 million win. Set aside about $5 million of it. Call 20 stockbroking firms, give them $50,000 each, and tell them it's a race. The firm that makes you the most money will control a $4 million portfolio. However they must trade out of bank accounts you nominate (to keep an eye on them) and if they lose more than $20 of the principle (the original $50k) they're fired. 4. Sparingly spend your money. Now that you don't have to work for a living, find a hobby you enjoy, that isn't going to really eat into your cash reserves. Something like high stakes poker is a definite no-no. In my case, I'd likely travel around the country for a year, then find something to go full time on to keep me busy
We all say we wouldn’t go ape shit with all that sort of cash, but honestly.... it’s gotta be pretty crazy going from ‘normal’ to ridiculously rich because of a damn lottery ticket. 🤔
Casinos? REALLY? That's of as much interest to me as cleaning septic tanks with my toothbrush; That is, not interested at all. Buying crap for friends??? I don't have many friends, but those I have are TRUE FRIENDS. Anyone who suddenly wants to be buddy-buddy after I'd won lottery would be around about as long as a snowball in hell. I would move. I would go far enough away so as to not be around anyone who knows me. New phone number - and guarded closely. NO FORWARDING ADDRESS! Absolutely, positively NO "SOCIAL MEDIA"! Basically, disappear as much as one can do. If my name ever came up in anyone's conversation, it would be to say: "I wonder what ever happened to...?"
I know they say that money changes people but this would never happen too me. Yes I would buy things like every one else. I would buy a house (not a mansion), a really nice car (Not a sports car) and travel a little. But going on stupid spending sprees and not trying to get deals on what you buy doesn't make logical sense...
"can you imagine... a life where you've been in jail, but where also you flew in a private plane between your homes?" are you implying that only poor people go to jail?
This narrations makes me laugh even at the wrong moments. "..but last time i checked perspective doesn't pay any bills" "he couldn't take it anynore so he decided ti end everything in his parent's garage" i shouldn't laugh but the way he describes things is just too much 😂
ACTUALLY, he got the math right. The guy won 27 Million. He spent 12 million. Half of 27 million is $13,500 Million. $12 million is almost $13,500 Million or almost half of $ 27 Million.
This would never happened to me if I ever win the lottery I would stay on a budget after I buy myself a home and furnished it and buy 1 car I will never spend like it’s no tomorrow
I have friends who make over 6 figures a year, and have less money in the bank than I do, with a job that pays around 40k. Go figure. I’ve been investing for years. Investing is the best way to generate wealth!
I just want to plant this seed... Do you feel you are taken advantage of by your boss? Your investments are in business controlled by people you most likely do not know - the result is you don't see the harm created. The boss makes his money, the investors get their dividends, the workers get abused. If you invest in Nike there are likely children doing work you are "entitled" to earning a portion of their wages. We need serious repair to our culture and government (which means businesses since even Jimmy Carter says we now live in a corporate controlled oligarchy...).
I make six figures, for the past 3 years, I have less than 50k in my bank account, I'm trying to invest, I just dont know how or what. I did invest 10 thousand on an online gambling company, and that didnt work out :(
Turco 949: Huh! Before you even retire. So you can get the feel of the financial sharks (planners and advisor). Listen to their substance and the manner of how it is presented. Forget the pissant kids and communicate with the mature who knows his craft. I have had pissy telephone technician former coworkers who want to play financial advisor and I have been approached by a couple. I probably know more than they!
@@eddyvideostar Don't do it unless you trust them, look them up first if people approach you.. Some people will be more than WILLING to steal your money. 👍
Besides what do you care? Im sure most everyone has played out the scenario in their mind. If I won this is what I would do. Don't think for a moment that I don't put one foot in front of the other everyday to educate, work, care and pay for my family.
That's what happens if you make poor people rich. Their true nature shows and pretty soon they become poor again. Being poor (or rich) is the result of one's lifestyle NOT because one does not or does have money.
Philip Agtuca that's what happens if somebody has never earned money through the sweat of their brow and learned the true value of an honestly earned dollar. I've seen the children of wealthy parents blow inheritances like that & they were never poor growing up. I've also seen some hard working poor folks come into fairly large sums of money and make it last as they know how to be frugal with what they've got.
"Winning the Lottery was the worst thing that ever happened to me!" Noooo, It was your reaction and subsequent actions that was the worst thing!

Or you live in Europe
If you have good health and no money then you are not rich.
That will eventually fade though.
you could live nicely off the interest . thus proving why some are rich and most are poor. if you don't understand money you will never be wealthy no matter how much you are given.
It's all about the mindset, poor mindsets make poor people.

i dont see how you can spend all of that. Lets say you win 10 million and you figure you are going to live another 50 years. you can give yourself $200,000 a year to live on, WAY more then most people have.
There are many levels in life, and it's pretty easy to spend 10 million if you put your mind to it
I agree I don’t see how they could blow it all
You live off the interest. The interest on 1.5million dollars is $50,000.00.

Randolph Agarn If I won $25 Mill from the lottery first thing I’d buy is a 8 Mill Mansion In Beverly Hills and I’d buy a SMALL 2 MILL JET and Buy me a 2017 Ferrari F430 and a 2017 Lambo Huracan and a 2018 BMW X5 and I would own someone Business I’d pay the CEO 5 - 7 MILL for something like the HOLLISTER brand and I’d buy a Custom GOLD 2017 Audi R8 and a Mercedes MayBach and I’d invest rest of my money into some Hotels / Casinos so I can have free rooms and I’d go on a 3 million dollar shopping spree and stop shopping after that I’d buy 10 VVS DIAMOND CHAINS and GUCCI LV and VERSACE and Saint Laurent and lots more and I’d party Like a rockstar...
Sharon was definitely relatable, taking care of her people giving them experiences they could probably never have.
Damn shame money can't buy brains
like dislike you should tell that to the Government.
like dislike lol
The power ball is around 1.6 BILLION this week! 😨
I hardly never play but maybe I'll throw in $5.. I think I'll get it!!
** I'll give an update if I win!!**
UPDATE! *I didn't win...*
My family never plays, we already have lots of money, but my dad was saw it was 1.6 Billion and was like screw it! Wanna go get some tickets? So I went to get some haha highly doubt we'll win. But the good thing is, we already have our own charity organization and one of our family values is to give back to the community where our businesses are, as we would have no customers and no business if it weren't for them, so a lot of the money would actually go back into the community. We aren't selfish assholes with our money like some people. So if we win, everyone wins! If anyone wants to throw me some of your luck that'd be awesome haha
I think you're thinking of the Megamillions. If you live in a higher populated area, I would say go for it, but there is little success in rural areas. I was fortunate to cash in a $400 winner for a friend, but that was the only big win I had seen from it in almost a year and a half of working where I do.
Steven Wheat Sorry buddy I already bought the winning ticket today. Better luck next time though hopefully.
Raven R Umm, you obviously missed where I said I already bought the winning ticket
I just sent $1000 on todays 1.6 billion lottery
Sharon is amazing! Her commitment to community is worth more than money.
All that money and Callie still couldn’t get rid of those shark teeth? Damn.
She's British. Tits before teeth lol
Hmm..............I'd invest most of it in low risk yet diversified places. Then, I'd buy a plot of land in the middle of nowhere, build a 5-7 bedroom house with 5-7 baths, pretty big but not a mansion, but I'd make it with that concrete insulation that is super energy efficient and make the house self sustaining using a mix of wind, sun, and possibly hydro depending on what water access rights I'd have to the river running through my land (yes, that's a requirement). Also use geothermal cooling and heating. Have a big garage and a big barn where I can work on projects. 50's chevy truck and rebuilt it on a 1990's 4x4 chassis. Maybe a newer truck just for back up. That'd be it. 2 vehicles, a decent house that is self sustaining, and investments. Oh, and a nice library in the basement of my house with a huge leather chair and big oak desk where I can read for hours on end without being disturbed.
billionaire walks into a shopping mall , the right person knows it , billionaires head gets knocked off :) happy ending .
What DaAlski78520 said-
Yeah investing in the forex market (the most liquid market in the world) is one of the safest and my favorite ways to invest. It's smart
investing in becoming a loan shark , ooops i meant a banker . even though most peoples dreams are a waste of time i would still like to help them achieve that dream . being a banker is the only way to do it while benefiting both .
@@galaxima , oh my , tough words eh .
If I win the lottery when I was in my early 20's I can see me blowing out but now that I'm in my late 20's I'd invest it into what I'm already investing in and double that shit.
“Nose candy “ lmao
People who buy lottery tickets don't tend to be "the brightest bulbs" anyways.
XD
agreed.
the ones that truly deserve to win the lottery never buy lotteries
I don't think the upper middle class deserves to win anything.
Says someone who probably buys them like they're a Walmart blue light special, but has never won. Bitterness and jealousy.
IDK. Succesful people I know will buy a few each year. I guess successful doesn't equate to intelligent but it's certainly an indicator.
@@lawrenceshdow my dad is a multimillionaire. He's gotten lottery tix just a few times in his life as a fuck around, not to actually win. If you waste your money on this shit you'll never grow wealth.
The commentary got me in tears! His voice volume keep going up n down lmao im in tears!!
If i won id move somewhere nice and queit and spend it wisely
Damn is this dude voice volume going up and down or is it me?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's annoying
It's horrible.
Not a big fan of the voice :P HE went from RICH to *whisper* broke.
^This comment is underrated and deserves more recognition. Yes his volume is fluctuating hence why audio engineers use compressors. ;)
Just live lifeeeee man. Money comes and goes. These people had amazing experiences and they should have no regrets. Never trust family after a windfall of money. Never
Well i fell like i hit the lottery when i started my garden lol
I'm sorry but if I saw 500k in someone's car at a strip club I'd risk it and break in to lol
Haha I don't blame you.
Lol
Fuck it, 50 or 100 grand I'd risk it, 500 grand that's cars coming home with me. 😂😂😂
Yup that's pretty much asking for it, not even trying to hide it, flexing clearly through the window. Wish I could've been those robbers
Me too and I've never had any trouble with the law, not even a traffic ticket. That kinda money would make all us average working class joes at least consider stealing it. I mean that's half a mil right there. I've seen youtube vids of gas stations getting robbed for 30 bucks, 500k would make a saint into a sinner real quick.
“But the last time I checked…” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 great video.
Stop yelling at me
Tacky Rolex watches ... Tacky cars...Tacky clothes.... YOU CAN'T BUY HAPPINESS GUYS... Just accept it!
i knew gerald muswagen. his suicide had nothing to do with the lottery. his wife and daughter were already very sickly and died close together, so he took his own life from the grief. and he left a 1 mil. trust for his son who is doing well for himself today.
He's my biological father and he only gave me $20 and just a visit to the hopsital as an infant because he beat me and broke my arm. Last time I saw him was in 2004 after helping me load my big screen tv into my home that I bought myself. I find it funny that he helped everyone in his family except his first born.
ill look into this....frost is your name? without splashing it out on yt and protect his son....hes is doing well.
I was never about the money he knew that, just shitty situation. And there's nothing to check into, His sister Brenda knows who I am, If I wanted something I would have done something about it lol just ranting that he was a shitty person.
and my name is Cory :P
thats really sad
And people think $27 million is a lot of money. Remember that Mike Tyson had like $350 million and blew all that.
One thing was Tyson had a habit of wrecking uber-expensive cars frequently. He always bought them new and sometimes sold the cars just because he was "bored" with them. That's an easy way to blow through several million bucks when you have Ferraris, Rolls Royces and other high end brands in a gigantic multicar garage. He even had his house built with a HUGE indoor swimming pool and the back yard was redone with a concrete path for his pet tiger. Yes, the crazy guy had a pet tiger so he had to pay someone to build a large cage for it.
I would NEVER go broke if I won!
Jon Samuels that's why well never win
Just Another Memer Na. I’m WAAAAY 2 simple of a person 2 blow it. NOT into name brands, NOT into jewelry, NOT into cars and NOT into lavish crazy mansions. Been over it 2 many times in my mind. 1 regular car and one really nice travel huge van 4 big family trips. A decent home 5 rooms tops with big yard of course. The only “splurge” would be travel. That’s it. Nothing more needed.
Its not that hard either. Don't spend anything the first year, then have a maximum amount of money you can spend a year. And keep your job for 2 years after winning. So your not reallly losing money.
Just another Bird better than other niggas other niggas would prolly just blast that shit lose it all
Jon Samuels I’ll be honest I probably would
I love these kind of stories 😂
I'd just get a small comfy cheap apartment and sleep all day. No work for as long as I live
Isabelle Is My Soulmate
I love sleeping too , but it's crucial to get out there & enjoy life . Experience the company of others etc ......
you can get up at the crack of noon and still live 👍
Isabelle Is My Soulmate lol but being alone isn’t fun tho man fuckin feel so cold and I never knew what that meant until recently same as that numb shit when someone said they were numb I’d be confused but I now know what they mean
Did tht for 4 years as I work from home 4 hours on pc get paid mad good. It sucks got old. More sleep made me more tired I'd sleep 14 hr a day and wake up for 10 . Pretty cool but then I got bored and depressed now all I want to do is make money and work. Like I said did that for years .
Booty Tree Back Meat you good?
Why don’t you ever here of stories where a hard working person wins, retires at age 35 and simply plays video games for the rest of there lives 😂 cuz that’s what I would do 👍🏻
That's what did, 15 years later, video games just didnt do it
There's something really honest about what you said. 🤪😀😏
"He couldnt take it no more so he finished it in his parent's garage"🤣🤣
Man this guy has a voice no money could buy
hahahahaha TRUE
"Way back in 1988"
Damn I'm old...
I think Sharon was the smartest one out of all of these people. At least She helped out for family & friends & put money up for her children. I salute her.
I could go without spending all that money just to know I had money in the bank was good enough for me but my wife would beg every damn day lol
Be careful when’ donating money to charities. A lot of them keep a hefty percentage for themselves and only a small percentage goes to the cause. “Operating expenses” I think they call them
Kolt Garber agreed, research your charities before you donate ! Also, keep your charity monies in your home country.
Kolt Garber Yup, a lot of charities are the world's biggest legal scam
im not gonna donate my thousands to them if i won.. i would go to hispital to find patients have no money to afford paying thier bill.. Fuck charity..
Exactly ! Like car donations.I worked for all those Car charitys. SCAM!
I drove some ladys from Argintina in my Limo. for week. What a bunch of cheapys . ! The Client kept hitting on me. Thats a NoNo . . anyway shopping at Rodeo Drive and last minute on a Friday I drove them to Disneyland for fireworks and they got in for free cuz they knew somebody and did they invite me no they didn't and they said we will be out at 10 . out at 2 a.m. didn't tip me then squabble about the price and how much it cost them and I asked her what do they do for a living that shopping and going here Beverly Hills ? Oh I own a Childrens Charity in my Country .FIGURES ! . I SAID .SORRY FIND SOME ONE ELSE TO DRIVE YOU !

It seems to be human nature to misuse money which you didn't work for.
*He's shocked how 1 guy spent 27 million in 5 years.. Pfft.. I can do that in 24 hours. ✅🙂*
Dumbasses do that
You sir are the best bruh
I can do it in 5 mins
Ever seen Brewster's Millions? Good luck.
Give me 3 months 😂
Good for the foster kid her life was crap and no one obviously taught her how to save or spend. So when she won she granted her own wishes. After losing it all she has 3 beautiful kids and finally realizes how rich she is
I don't get why Callie is always on these,"Loser Lottery Winners," lists. Callie was a MINOR when she won. Her Foster Parents should have been the ones to seriously curb her reckless spending habits.
If I win the lottery I'm going to watch this video soon as i get the money no doubt
lol
Kylo - sure
The Lords of Lottery never seem to want to let people with a plan in place win jack 😐
Exactly
For real though!!!
Perhaps that's because they're less likely to play the lottery in the first place?
Game of thrones? 😂😂
There's some strategy involved with winning a large lottery. Unlike America, Australian lottery draws allow the winners to be anonymous, paid in a lump sum, and it isn't taxed. If you do win the big one, here's some handy hints of what you should put in your contingency plan:
1. KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. If you start buying a lot of expensive toys, people will ask questions. Don't tell anyone you can't trust to keep quiet about it, and that includes family members. If associates and family are suddenly nice to you, be sure to ask why.
2. Move. While you might like your neighbourhood, visualise what a comfortable house would look like for you. If your answer is "a 50 room mansion," you haven't thought it through. For me it would be a 5 bedroom house, with some big sheds, but surrounded by some acreage. Why? Because it's peaceful, your neighbours can't spy on you, and if you feel the urge to crank up your music at 2am, not a problem
3. Diversify investments. Say you had a $20 million win. Set aside about $5 million of it. Call 20 stockbroking firms, give them $50,000 each, and tell them it's a race. The firm that makes you the most money will control a $4 million portfolio. However they must trade out of bank accounts you nominate (to keep an eye on them) and if they lose more than $20 of the principle (the original $50k) they're fired.
4. Sparingly spend your money. Now that you don't have to work for a living, find a hobby you enjoy, that isn't going to really eat into your cash reserves. Something like high stakes poker is a definite no-no. In my case, I'd likely travel around the country for a year, then find something to go full time on to keep me busy
Rich is the man who can afford to do without
ARKANSAS Trey Rich sounds pretty smug tbh
Put a beggar on horseback and they will ride it in to the ground!
We all say we wouldn’t go ape shit with all that sort of cash, but honestly.... it’s gotta be pretty crazy going from ‘normal’ to ridiculously rich because of a damn lottery ticket. 🤔
Did she get that FANG FIXED????🤔🤔🤔🤔
S Lit 🤣🤣🤣🤣
What fixed?
Casinos? REALLY? That's of as much interest to me as cleaning septic tanks with my toothbrush; That is, not interested at all. Buying crap for friends??? I don't have many friends, but those I have are TRUE FRIENDS. Anyone who suddenly wants to be buddy-buddy after I'd won lottery would be around about as long as a snowball in hell.
I would move. I would go far enough away so as to not be around anyone who knows me. New phone number - and guarded closely. NO FORWARDING ADDRESS! Absolutely, positively NO "SOCIAL MEDIA"! Basically, disappear as much as one can do. If my name ever came up in anyone's conversation, it would be to say: "I wonder what ever happened to...?"
Chances are, you are not the only person in the world with 'your' name.
Check it out, google yourself. So you can always just tell people "wasn't me".
I wouldn't be comfortable with such a blatant lie.
He said, "Toldya whata yu wat meee tee tell emmminem papi.!"
No jiggy with it
I know they say that money changes people but this would never happen too me. Yes I would buy things like every one else. I would buy a house (not a mansion), a really nice car (Not a sports car) and travel a little. But going on stupid spending sprees and not trying to get deals on what you buy doesn't make logical sense...
"can you imagine... a life where you've been in jail, but where also you flew in a private plane between your homes?" are you implying that only poor people go to jail?
ABQ505 Attacks true in America atleast.
You're reading too much between the lines
This narrations makes me laugh even at the wrong moments. "..but last time i checked perspective doesn't pay any bills" "he couldn't take it anynore so he decided ti end everything in his parent's garage" i shouldn't laugh but the way he describes things is just too much 😂
LOL the first guy got complaints he had too many cars parked in his mansion driveway lol
"In his first year as a millionaire he spent 12 million, that's almost half". Yea someone definitely didnt do their math right.
ACTUALLY, he got the math right. The guy won 27 Million. He spent 12 million. Half of 27 million is $13,500 Million. $12 million is almost $13,500 Million or almost half of $ 27 Million.
No one to blame but themselves.
From BROKE to RICH and BROKE again
Just make "good' investments, and always make sure your investment income is greater than your spending.
This would never happened to me if I ever win the lottery I would stay on a budget after I buy myself a home and furnished it and buy 1 car I will never spend like it’s no tomorrow
brenda burditt
easier said than done.
Really doubt it bet all these people who gon broke said da same geekin 😂😭
Andy Wafflez that’s them I always stay on a budget
brenda burditt teach mee
Deapoolxx17 you called it silly but my chances are losing my money is very low if you invest 25,000 you might lose it all and then you will regret it
When I win the lottery I'll quietly move to another country, change my name and appearance to dodge the freeloaders.
Me 2
Good thing i like GT-Rs, if i ever win i can spend about 80k on a car and be done buying cars. Who needs millions of dollars worth of cars lol?
It's all about that dopamine hit
Same lmao. Buy a house , GTR , pay off bills and chill.
Pablito's Way hell, they could've gotten the same dopamine hit playing nickel slots in vegas & still had some of their winning to live off of.
Lol facts the GTR the shit
Gtrs are fast but they are ugly
I have friends who make over 6 figures a year, and have less money in the bank than I do, with a job that pays around 40k. Go figure. I’ve been investing for years. Investing is the best way to generate wealth!
There are plenty of broke high income earners. You still have to keep what you earn!
I just want to plant this seed... Do you feel you are taken advantage of by your boss? Your investments are in business controlled by people you most likely do not know - the result is you don't see the harm created. The boss makes his money, the investors get their dividends, the workers get abused. If you invest in Nike there are likely children doing work you are "entitled" to earning a portion of their wages. We need serious repair to our culture and government (which means businesses since even Jimmy Carter says we now live in a corporate controlled oligarchy...).
I make six figures, for the past 3 years, I have less than 50k in my bank account, I'm trying to invest, I just dont know how or what.
I did invest 10 thousand on an online gambling company, and that didnt work out :(
My man David wit that "U" golf cart all about that U , in the house
You should consult a financial advisor and a lawyer BEFORE you even claim your lottery winnings.
very true!
@@elcid2865 Thats not a good idea.
Turco 949: Huh! Before you even retire. So you can get the feel of the financial sharks (planners and advisor). Listen to their substance and the manner of how it is presented. Forget the pissant kids and communicate with the mature who knows his craft. I have had pissy telephone technician former coworkers who want to play financial advisor and I have been approached by a couple. I probably know more than they!
@@eddyvideostar Don't do it unless you trust them, look them up first if people approach you.. Some people will be more than WILLING to steal your money. 👍
To: A. J. Thames: This is true.
u cant give a junkie all that money an expect him 2 invest..
Rider eat sleep dream Sure you can, invest in heroin that is...
To answer your question........YES!......I still want to win the Lottery 💰💰💰💰
Besides what do you care? Im sure most everyone has played out the scenario in their mind. If I won this is what I would do. Don't think for a moment that I don't put one foot in front of the other everyday to educate, work, care and pay for my family.
I already won the lottery. I was born in the U. S. of A., baby!
Do you have a formula ob picking ur numbers Sir.?
How much did you win?

Pledging 10% to christian charities is part of the “dumb stuff”
soup kitchens are famously frivolous!
no no no , you can claim any money you donate to a charity , get most of it back and get more from the attention you get from all the ad revenue :)
I wouldn't give half a cent to a fucking church or "christian charity". Fuck them.
No. Charities give you tax deductions.
Exactly. All charities are scams. You’re just giving money to the people who run them.

That's what happens if you make poor people rich. Their true nature shows and pretty soon they become poor again. Being poor (or rich) is the result of one's lifestyle NOT because one does not or does have money.
Philip Agtuca that's what happens if somebody has never earned money through the sweat of their brow and learned the true value of an honestly earned dollar. I've seen the children of wealthy parents blow inheritances like that & they were never poor growing up. I've also seen some hard working poor folks come into fairly large sums of money and make it last as they know how to be frugal with what they've got.
Right, money doesn't change you, it enhances who you already are!
I always said, if I win the lotto, I won't quit my job, but I'd be hell to supervise.
