I won the freaking lottery!
I can't freaking believe it! I am at a loss for words right now, my head is spinning!
![]() What are standard taxes on prize money? I need to find a lawyer, and an accountant... there is just too much to think about right now. How much should I give to charity? Is there a fixed %? This is just all coming at me too fast, I can't cope right now. Has anyone else ever won the lottery? I could use some advice here. Tell me your "winnings" story!

if it's a tidy sum - talk to a financial planner or tax attorney before doing anything...
and congratulations

All in all it's about $15.00 So... $7.50 after taxes if I am doing my math right.
I couldn't believe it when I scratched off that last number. I was in tears, jumping about like a spider monkey on coke. It was like the culmination of my being. I can finally afford those "socks" I always wanted... but I am not going to do that. This might sound odd to everyone, but I am giving 100% of it to the TFP. The place I love. Hal, do with it as you will, I trust you. Use it for the greater good. Take Visa? ![]()

Nice one. Here I was going to give you a nice long post on what to do and you didn't even win enough to cover up your naughty bits if you roll around in it on a bed ala Supplecow.

DONATE!
(cause my poor ass can't) congratulations, if you've made enough, you can place it all in interest bearing investments and live off of the interest for the rest of your life.

This dissapoints me to no end, to know that your good fortune is in small figures.
I had the hope to introduce you to my Barrister in Nigeria, Bless your eyes.

You know what this means: statistically, you'll be bankrupt within five years and your life will be no better - and possibly worse - than before you won!
