But most importantly of all..... if you win big, don't tell anyone. No-one at all. Not friends, and most certainly not family. Give to them at a later stage in affordable amounts if you want to, but if you announce you've got a pile of money, that's when the begging will start.

You'll be an instant free ATM for everyone you know. It won't start with big asks - it's unlikely they'll ask for a house or car until the pattern is established. But you'll find they "mysteriously leave their wallet at home" when you go out for a meal where they just happen to have ordered the most expensive item on the menu. Or they'll ask you to go shopping, and make a point of saying how lovely something is and what a shame they can't quite afford it.

Plus you'll get begging letters from all around the world. That's just how things are !
