1. Wouldn't tell anyone.
2. Because everyone will find out somehow, eventually, wait until there is a smaller lotto win, claim I won that one, say $2m first division.
3. Now you can distribute it as you really want.
4. Live on interest. Easier said than done.
5. Move to Maui.

Pay off all debts eg:- mortgage
Employ my Older brother as an investment adviser

The work is so sporadic.

I'd buy up all the land around Lake Eyre that was at or above sea level.
Then I'd buy the Greens.
Then I'd run an advertising campaign and persuade the masses that boat people are AOK and good for their super.
The Greens would win the election and my mate Bob would implement a carbon tax and spend the money employing boat people (et al) to dig a channel from Port Augusta to Lake Eyre to flood the interior for the purposes of carbon sequestration and exercise.
I would declare myself King of the Lake and buy a house boat. I would float around reading poetry and drinking Coopers and in the evenings I would teach South Australians how to say "l" for free.
Ide buy this yacht. www.robertoriccidesigns.com/
and just cruise around to places asking hotties if they wanna come on my boat and party. then when i got sick of the chicks mooching off me ide just cruise over to the next port and start again.
yehh thatd probably do me. i would also anchor it off corros and live there for the whole summer.
