If you won the Lottery what would be the very first thing you would do?
Everyone is hyped up about the Lottery and talk about what they would spend the money on. The winners do not receive the funds straight away. My question is relating to the time between jumping around the room to making your way to claim your winnings. I believe that I wouldsit down and plan what I would be spending the sum on. I then would be on the Internet looking up an Accountant and holidays away.
