These tips come from lottery boards, insurance companies and private wealth management companies, so it’s sound advice.
Watch out for lottery scams. Mega Millions staff will never call, text or e-mail anyone about winning a prize
Get advice from a respectable team of financial advisors
Get a good legal team
Secure the ticket. State Farm says you should make several copies of the ticket
Protect your privacy. Keep your win under wraps
Make a plan for the money
Don’t make any quick decisions
Ask professionals if you should take the lump sum or the annual payment
The next drawing is tomorrow night and the jackpot could go over the current amount by then
