Lotto winnings

if you won the lotto would you give back or keep it all?

I would donate to many childrens medical charities, I would donate to some colleges, I would donate to diabetes medical research programs(my father died of this disease). I would donate to Autism foundations specially my cousin's wife Autism Foundation(Holly Robinson Peete). Then I would give some to my 2 Brothers, put alot towards my son college fund. After that I would like to start a home project to build building's for homeless people and get into learning more about how to help abused children and women. First and most important I would leave the country to have peace of mind and to think of all these things I can do to help people in a proper way and to make sure that I can keep earning money so that I will never go broke.

If I did actually win a lotto, I would give some money back to the community, though indirectly...Nothing is worse than to let people know that you have won something big to begin with.

Congrats on winning the lotto!  I agree that I'd like to be able to keep it quiet if I won something big, some states don't allow people to keep quiet after a huge payout.  Like the person who won the $300 million in the Midwest, the lottery commission will make them come forward because that's the state's mandate.  I think it should be an anonymous process because i would imagine a lot of fake friends and charity cases would come out of the woodwork and make you feel bad for not giving them your money.  Having said that, I'd help out my family and then take a trip around the world.

I would have to share it with with family and make some donations to charities that are near and dear to me. I still would like to keep it as quiet as possible or else one would have "friends and relatives" one has never heard of. I like  my privacy but I quess it would be difficult  but not improssible.

I will definitely give to charity.
