BUT, it is so darn fun dreaming and fantasizing about what you would do will millions of dollars. In fact, have you ever asked someone that very question. In the very unlikely chance that you win, it's comforting to know that there is a methodic, strategic and tactful way to go about handling millions of dollars. We've seen people go broke and we've also seen people live a fruitful life after winning the jackpot. It's actually quite fascinating and sad to hear both of those accounts. The reason I took interest in this topic is because of how many unthinkable pieces of advice there is out there for jackpot winners and the outcomes of how it changes their life varies. There are many pieces of information in this interview I didn't even think of. It's a world of its own and it's so interesting to learn about.
