What would you do with a $440 million dollar Powerball win, and who would you tell, and who would you avoid knowing you have become ”gripped”?

disclaimer If you do not live in a state which the Powerball is played you will have to just imagine or skip the “does X love me” question.

To eliminate the obstacle that you do not buy lotto tickets, let’s say you find a Powerball ticket, and for some strange reason you keep it. The draw happens and it is all over the news someone in your city won as the sole winner, and the jackpot was $440 million. For no good reason, curiosity mostly, you check the ticket you found to discover it was the sole winning ticket, what would you do? In event no one else can claim it is their lost ticket, or no one claims it and the money becomes yours, who would be the 1st one you tell, or first group of people? Who would you go 80 miles out of the way to avoid or keep from having known that you won? If you end up having a “grip” that can now choke eight T-Rexes, what would you do with all that moolah? Would you by a fleet of Ferraris, buy out a concert as a private party for friends, start a burn clinic, OD on coke with some gold digger in a Vegas hotel room, what?
