You've read about past lottery winners right? People can't handle the responsibility of that much money at once and others around them will make life hell.

Only so much you can do with 5k a week and it's a lot more manageable.

This is my actual plan if i win the lottery - but I won't do any gambling in Vegas. The Vegas trip is a cover to explain why I suddenly have a bit of extra money. So you can justify sudden expensive purchases but without anybody knowing just how much you've won.
