Cash payout is $281 million. After taxes at %40 he has $168 million left. At %2 interest that’s $3.3 million. Just live off the interest

I thought you had to be 21 to buy lottery tickets or does it vary by state?

I understand people that win $1 million or $5 million blowing through it and ruining their lives but can you really blow through $280 million even if you act retarded with it?

Buy several multi million dollar mansions and not take into account additional ongoing costs for maintenance and property taxes.

Buy yachts, jets, etc. Not account for additional ongoing costs for maintenance.

Invest millions in stupid business ideas.

Spend recklessly in general.

First thing you do is give 10 million to a wealth management person just in case you do something stupid and blow the rest

Can easily live off the interest of 10 million

First thing is get rid of all social media accounts.


That kid is STILL posting on fb...his most recent post from 12 hours ago...

Thank you everyone for the kind words. I am truly grateful and appreciative! Unfortunately fake social media accounts have already surfaced and circulated. This is my REAL account and my other social media is @TheShaneMissler both on Instagram and Twitter. Again, thank you to everyone for the amazing words and if you’re tuning in for this journey, just know...it’s only the beginning!



I really hope some wise trusted family member will talk some sense into him.

Yes, all of them. Every single one.

Who cares? He's 20 - and now worth North of $200MM, why the frick should he turn into a hermit? Hopefully, he gets some good advice on how to secure himself and funds, but live your life.

If you are a celebrity and being seen is part of how you make your money...then well of course you keep social media accounts. You also likely have people you hire to help you manage your social media.


This is a 20 year old kid who went from being just a regular 20 year old to very wealthy overnight. Smartest thing is to hide from the world as much as possible at least until you can figure out just how your life is gonna change from all this.

She didn't say this.

This is essentially what SHE said...Hers is solid advice to start with but he will need more.

quote:

but live your life.


Sure...but his is now an entirely new life.

Damn you are being even more of a dick than usual.

Hope you and yours are well.

Look up any article they write about what to do if you win the lottery. Most of them will tell you to get rid of social media because you make yourself a massive target.
