I just saw this one and I am really amaze on what he did.
A casino guest just won over $1.3 million… and the first thing he did? Call his mom.
At FireKeepers Casino in Michigan, the guest hit the venue’s largest jackpot ever. But instead of celebrating alone, he grabbed his phone and told his mom: “Momma, we are out of the hood. We’re leaving tomorrow.” That emotional call went viral because it wasn’t about luxury, it was about finally giving his family a safer, better life.
Sometimes the biggest wins aren’t about money, they’re about the people you love most.
1.3 MILLION Casino WinI totally would inform my mom as well if i lived with her.
But in my case. $1.3M is a lot, but it's not even good retirement money here.
What i would instantly do? I would buy myself stuff from my "if i get a million" bookmark folder. I feel like i would need to spoil myself a little. Next i would put that money on my monthly / yearly budget and see how far i get with it. I would give half of it to my kids though.
I would probably keep on living in my apartment, because rent is cheap and i don't need a bigger flat.
Hmm, i feel like million dollars is way less then it sounds in writing. So i wouldn't go mad with it, and i would definitely invest some of it.
