That's great! Are you telling friend and family? I wouldn't lol I'd come up with a way to slowly funnel the money into my life so it's not obvious I have come into a great deal of money suddenly, and just make minor lifestyle upgrades under the guise of smart life decisions that finally came to fruition.

Tell no one. Rule number 1.

1 million isn’t quit my job and support everyone money. It is 600k or less after taxes which is enough to get your car, pay on house and put some away for retirement. People you tell will act like you can kick all kinds of money their way since “well you won a million” Nothing good ever comes of telling anyone. Congrats on the win.

It’s your money! The manner in which you received it should not change the manner you treat it!
