If I won a billion I'd 1) collect it anonymously 2) tell *nobody* 3) give 99% of it to charities (African food aid,cancer research,etc) 4) buy a $500,000 condo in a no tax state (like New Hampshire) and buy a BMW 5 Series 5) spend winters on the west coast of Florida.

And I'd eat prime rib often and fly business class on flights more than 6 hours.And keep my thermostat at 73 degrees year round.

Pssst - Florida is a no-tax state, and they have BMW dealerships.

I will take up Cancer Research.

It will take some funding.

If you won a billion. After tax would be around $600m +- depending on state. If you donated 99%, you’d have about $6m left.You’d honestly be better off taking the $600m investing it and giving some of that to charity each year and then the rest when you die. That’s not counting the fact most charities, if not nearly all, are extremely inefficient and wasteful at best.
