Winning the lottery. What would you do?

I was studying for exams when I started to procrastinate (like always) and think about what life would be like if I won the lottery.
Money doesn't buy you happiness however it can buy u success. To get a good job you need ALOT of money for schooling, tutors, university and the list goes on. Everything now days cost money.
If I ever was lucky enough to win the lotto I could do soo much more with life:
- complete education debt free
- invest in properties and businesses around the world
- help my family out
- travel the world
- donate for causes I feel strong about and have a voice that will be heard
- and ultimately live life to its fullest
Money really does make money.
Do u guys agree with me? Do you really need to have money to become successful?
What would you do if you won big?
Idk I just wanted to see what other ppl think

All the things you listed. :colondollar: you don't need money to become successful, but I think that once you have it and use it wisely you can do pretty well for yourself.

Buy one of those awesome "cookies" I've heard so much about. The ones with chocolate chips...
- Put most in my bank account then pay for college tuition cuz its expensive
- Pay all of house bills
- Buy clothes for college + college supplies like sheet linens
- Buy 3 earphones b/c the cheap ones always die on me
- Buy the iphone 5 cuz I never had any iphones before and my android camera sucks
- Buy cooking utensils like my own dry measuring cups
-Give my parents money depending on my earnings
- Get a car for myself
- Get my parents new clothes
- Travel to Japan where people speak English,
None of my money would go to no donation organizations. Blow my money on my needs first then I would see what I would want to donate just to put a dent in my money.

No. Money does not define success unless you're goal is to be rich then in that yeah. To be rich you need money to be successful. Depends what you want out of life.
Travel full time.
Use some money to help people in need but avoid donating to organisations unless I'm sure it goes straight to those who need it.
Help my family out with paying for things, get them nice stuff.
Invest in research to develop medication + items that help people with disabilities e.g. Those robotic legs that help paralysed people to walk.

Buy Houses
Loads of them
Bunch of hookers and coke.

Spoiler

Buy my mum a house and give the rest to charity.
Buy a massive turnip :3
Half I'll spend.
The other half, I'll put into my bank to earn more.
Invest in some property and drop out of university, I'd still live with my mates who are in uni and party without worrying about my 9am classes the next morning
