Jeffrey, When it comes time to probate your Will the attorney will earn more money. A Trust eliminates that step. No probate.

Thanks music* d poly for your excellent advice...now just to win the lottery!

Sister and hubster went to one of those financial seminars and they said revocable trust was much better than a will. Wonder why my Attorney didn't mention this doing my will and DNR status.

I would set up a Revocable Family Trust that would own a LLC to protect my assets.

LOL, too funny. The mother is attractive in her picture and the daughter, well, I guess that is the benefit of being a meth head you get whooped with an ugly stick lol.

I like to remember the stories of successful winners. Like Brad Duke in Star, Idaho, Jim and Carolyn McCullar in Washington State, The West family from Oregon,

The ones that The Lottery Changed My Life show us. Like the Truckers from Oklahoma. James Gatzke from Chicago, IL who's ticket saved his life.

The Wraggs who we just read about here on Lottery Post.

Plus the winners who are featured in Lucky a video from Amazon. Made by Jeffrey Blitz.

Sure Bleudog101, I just watched a video on YouTube that featured Trusts. A Mr. Coons, a lawyer, discussed Family Trusts, Living Revocable Trusts, and LLCs. I will hire a Trust Estate Attorney to protect my assets and plan my estate. When I find an excellent lawyer I will be informed about more than what I can learn on YouTube and LP.

These are the type of things that I will accomplish before claiming my prize.

I hope this helps. None of us want to walk the same paths that David Lee Edwa... [ More ]

music*,

Would you reiterate what you would do if you won the big one? I know one was an LLC, but there were other considerations too that slip my mind.

Thanks

That is an excellent suggestion. A Family Trust. Thank You dpoly1

A good reason to set up a Family Trust

Jane Greenwood, the youngest of Lawler's three children, was sentenced to 10 years of probation

10 years of probation is an insult and another crime in itself...

What a shame. I agree that probation seems too lenient a punishment. Here in Arizona, the Senior Citizen advocacy groups and lobbyist are very powerful. They would have hung her by her thumbs.

Probation? For THIS crime.

Gosh almost seems appealing to do the crime and get probation.

She gets every freedom granted ...with a little note that says...ohh I'm on probation which means ...absolutely nothing.

That's why you spend your money while your able to.

To many kids throw pa and ma in some place and leave them to die there and could careless about them

Life is short enjoy your money .

Kids have years to make theirs.

I see and itsi unreal how many older people in the casino.

I am glad and they say I am enjoying myself.

That's good.

Sorry to say kids aren't like they used to be many years ago.

She needs to be sent away along time for what she did.

Jane Greenwood, a meth-head who was already on probation for that crime. She gets ten more years of probation. Probation can be made to be a difficult life.

Austin, Texas we can assume there are plenty of cases throughout the USA.

Spend some of your winnings on the protection of your life when you become a Senior Citizen. Especially if your child is a drug addict.

Not long after Austin widow Billie Lawler matched all five numbers in the Mega Millions in 2005, her health began to erode along with her $750,000 prize.

She hoped to live out the balance of her life at a high-end Alzheimer's care facility, but was evicted after about a year when she no longer could make the $5,000 monthly rent, prompting a court-ordered investigation that revealed her daughter had burned through her mom's money a crime against the elderly that prosecutors and judges say is c...
