i wouldnt want to win such a big amount like 300mil or even 30mil. too many people will come out of nowhere asking for hand outs.
for me the perfect amount would be 2 or 3 mil. enough to pay out the house, buy some more houses to generate an income without having to work. and get a couple of new cars for me in the missus (each )
then, i would spend my time stroking my hobbies. Golf would be played, guns would be bought, gyms would be visited (or i might just build my own). but by the time that is all done, there is nothing left for the vultures.0 -
Hire a lawyer and financial advisor0

you also should immediately setup a blind trust before claiming your winnings. sign the ticket in the name of the trust. redeem the winning ticket. this way you stay anonymous and you won't start getting a constant deluge of strangers calling you demanding donations and you'll also avoid the zillions of frivolous lawsuits from the ambulance-chasing lawyers who see lottery winners as easy marks.
anything that can be done to protect your anonymity on a large lottery win should be done.
if you've ever wondered why some winners wait a few months to come forward and claim a large lottery prize and then there is no media covering the awarding of the check... it's usually because the winner got some good financial advice immediately and went through the process of getting a blind trust setup for which they were the executor, before stepping forward to claim the prize in the name of the trust.
Unfortunately for most of us this option is not possible.
