If you won the lottery what would you do with the money first?

I'd give my family some and pay off all of my bills. Save the rest for taxes. lol

I would save it all in the bank, but first buy an Xbox 360, a lot of games, and convert some to quarters to throw at people.

Hmm depends the sum of money won! but I think that if its a big sum perhaps I would invest them! or perhaps I will enjoy spending them! either or!

Convert some to throw at people huh? Why not dollar bills instead of quarters?

I think I would also donate to my family. Probably invest the rest. I think with lotteries though, you only get a certain amount per year, not a lump sum.

First thing I would do is go out and get extremely drunk with all my friends :)

Student loans will kill you!
I'd probably pay off all of my loans first then maybe reinvest the rest.

Pay the taxes on it, then start paying off debts... I've got student loans, a car loan, and mortgage high on the list.

Why are you saving money for Student Loans? That is the point of Student Loans, to not have money.
