What would you do if you won the lottery?
Tell no one
Give it all away
Except for about a quarter
(Not twenty-five cents)
A quarter of the winnings
After taxes, of course
Pay it forward
Moral compass, calibrated
Tell no one
First Rule of Lottery Club
“It's Amy,” I said. 
Indeed. In this case it doesn’t pay to advertise lol

I think once you earn $5 million or more, you move into that 50% tax bracket. So you’d pretty much have to take half right off the top.

Correct. After the half is gone, I would keep a quarter. Then I would give most of that away. All the while, not telling a single person.

No worries. I was trying to upload using my phone and I couldn’t. But my laptop had already uploaded my story. This website has some bugs.
