It is very difficult for an ordinary person to concentrate on such an amount, so such winnings are not beneficial. You can give many examples of how people “lost” huge sums and were left with nothing.The level of a person's development is visible by what he spends his money on. Money is an opportunity for a person to show himself and others what he really is.
if I really won big prizes in a tournament, I would spend a little on everything, keep a part for further poker, family, of course, I would invest a part somewhere, for entertainment, for myself
For me, a big win is considered to be a hundred thousand dollars or more. If I won that amount of money, I would definitely invest most of it in real estate, maybe buy a new Mercedes and make gifts for my loved ones. I would also donate part of the winnings to charity and, of course, increase my poker bankroll
If I won a lot of money playing poker, I would start my own business and buy myself a new house first. And of course I would leave a small part of the prize to continue playing poker. Perhaps I would only start playing high poker limits.
For me, I prefer investing money rather than spending it.
The investment will bring me profits that make my monthly income stable, which gives me the time and money to live a fairly comfortable life.
The first thing I would do .is help my family.Another thing that comes to my mind is travel abroad or maybe to Cusco and see the beautiful Machu Picchu
I would make sure my kids college educations were paid for and put the rest into my retirement account. Would be nice to actually happen knowing I could actually retire like a normal human at a normal time. I expect to have to work until 72+ at this point.
Exactly, I won't be stupid to spend, once you earn money to change your life, the smartest attitude is to make the money work for you, and soon, you will have a whole life to enjoy.
It's great to see so many stories and dreams of players wanting to change their lives and help their families. Particularly, I would spend it on some superfluous things like a sports car.
