    So you just got rich… Maybe you bought GameStop at $5, or bitcoin at a thousand, maybe you did it the good old fashioned way and won the lottery, but by one means or another you have found yourself with millions of dollars looking back at you when you open up your bank account.
    Congratulations you have won capitalism…. Now What?
    You might have though making the money was the hard part, but in many ways holding onto it can be even harder.
    Friends you haven’t heard from in years will suddenly spring back into your life, strangers will send you threatening letters, and even family members will have a sob story about why they suddenly need money.
    Ironically enough, multi million dollar windfalls from inheritances, gambling, or gambling in denial “investing” actually increase the likelihood of being declared bankrupt by over 1,000%.
    So hang onto your lucky windfall and stick around to learn how money works,
    So to understand what to do with your new found fortune, you have to start off by understanding what not to do.
    Believe it or not, coming into life changing amounts of money in a short space of time can inflict upon people what psychologists call Sudden Wealth Syndrome, and while that might sound like the best mental health problem to have, it is still a serious problem.
    According to the American Psychologist Dr Stephen Golbart, the symptoms of this affliction include anxiety, isolation and paranoia, brought about by the perceived guilt of receiving money that wasn’t “earned”.
    It’s kind of like the imposter syndrome turned up to 11.

    First rule really struck me.
    When I was a kid, I found 2 $20 bills on the streets (which is big in our country that time). I immediately tell my cousin this, which caused chaos to our whole family. Suddenly, my mother told me to give it to her saying she'll just "hide" it for later use. My uncle accused me of stealing it and threatened to call the police if I don't hand the bills over.
    I quickly understood my situation and immediately ran from my house. I spent the money on a hotel room for me to sleep that night. The rest of the money I spent on food for myself. Then I returned home with no money in hand, scolded, but I just didn't care.

    Getting Sued is the easiest one. If you place as much of your assets and wealth into businesses as possible, a personal lawsuit can only target you, and not the business's wealth, so your assets remain protected. And as an added benefit, you don't have to pay a 50% inheritance tax to give the company to someone else when you die.

      Yeah but the risk is you can be legally removed from a trust under a lot of circumstances especially if it deemed a company has no purpose other than to shield assets from being seized in a lawsuit. Corporations and trusts were originally only supposed to be for a public good (charity or shared infrastructure) and many lawyers have been able to get around the protections by pointing out the company does nothing and therefore can be shutdown and the assets handed over to the state for sales to the highest bidder to settle the suit. When that happens the law goes from protecting to actually hurting as those auctions rarely fetch a good price for the assets which are removed from your control while being sold.

    Oddly enough, my millionaire fantasy is actually to be as much of a mystery as possible. Live comfortably but modestly, look like just your average guy but secretly wealthy. Most high end sports cars I'm too tall to sit in, I don't care for sailing so no yachts, and I don't believe in giant houses for only one or two occupants. I'd just have a simple modern house with a nice view, a comfortable reliable car, host the occasional gathering of friends and family, and take a couple vacations a year. The rest of the time I'd have the right people invest my money in stable businesses and real estate, maybe even keep working but now I can choose a job based more on fulfillment and enjoyment rather than what it pays.

    Don't even tell your mother. Don't tell your kids. Do absolutely nothing for 10-15 days (you have 30+ to collect). When you're ready to get rolling, just effing vanish into the night and get everything claimed and settled on legally-binding paper. Laywers can and will work on a contingent basis ("help now, pay later") provided you can prove you are the legitimate winner. You don't need to pay up-front for a legitimate NATIONALLY RANKED estates firm. The Firm should be national and not regional because you may have to do some moving, also they're more closely watched by regulators, and you want to talk to the senior-most executive partner. The person the firm is named after is the person you want to talk to. Absolutely refuse to give any and all details to anyone else. Sit and wait in the lobby until they physically and personally come to meet you. They will likely come with a team, ask who they are and request non-senior executive partners to leave. If they give you crap tell them you are a premium client and ask for the name of their direct competitors. You have real money now, you can make demands (don't become Karen at the olive garden though). The founder/sr executive partner is 50x richer than your paltry lottery winnings make you, and they deal with people 100x richer than you, and so they (hopefully) have no reason to fold you over. But this means that they'll be vetting/testing you as much as you should be testing them.
    Oh and they don't have offices in your state unless you are in NY, LA, or other big money metropolis. Drive there on a "business trip." No planes, trains or busses. As little of a paper trail to and from as possible. Load up on prepaid cards at home for expected gas/lodging costs. Unemployed? Go on Vacation. Broke? Say you're doing porn and they're footing the bill. Ugly and old? Say you're doing onlyfans. Fake going stir crazy. It literally doesn't matter. As long as NOBODY knows its to handle lottery winnings. Dead broke and can't afford it? Ask the firm to enter an agreement for them to pay costs up front, and you'll reimburse with winnings. BE CREATIVE.
    Once you have everything sorted and you've made your investments and planted your "most of this money is for my grandkids" seeds (don't spoil your kids, they can spend faster and harder than you ever could, set up college funds for grandkids and keep direct cash out of the family or your winnings will evaporate once Spoiled Jhonny wants to buy 500 Lamborghinis for a UA-cam/TikTok challenge or something. You want to be _"ghost rich."_ No Gucci, no Prada, no Chanel, Louis Vuitton. Those aren't the true luxury brands anyways, they're clout-chaser brands. Pretender brands. They make you look rich while actually making you poor. Almost all of your spending should be on things that create, or increase your passive income, with only minimal "guilty pleasure spending". After a decade or so of building _actual_ wealth, then you can splurge with the .05% of your passive income on a nice new Lexus or something. Remember, outside of LA, NY, and other premium locations, the only people who you "know" are rich... probably aren't. Wealth at a high level is a state of mind, not a "show of force," so to speak. There's probably a millionaire or billionaire somewhere down the street from you... driving a used, last-year, ex-loaner car.

What I mean is that when you start making massive amounts really quickly your entire life will change and that is really hard for a lot of people so they will try to get back to their comfortable life even if that life is significantly worse than being rich would be. *So what you should do if you start making this amount is take a few weeks to think about what you want to do with your life now that you don't need to work to survive like most people.*

      They don't think they're living beyond their means. In the US if one starts saving for retirement at the age of 30, planning to retire in their 60s, they need to invest 15% of their lifetime income AFTER TAX to not have to reduce their standard of living when they retire. This percent only goes up the later one starts investing, but goes down quite a bit in ones 20s.
      Eg, you're 30 years old, make 100k a year, if you're not putting at least 15k a year into your 401k you're living beyond your means. This statistic assumes you're investing in S&P 500.

    I loved the humor.. "The money gets given to you, TO NOT GAMBLE WITH." A smart trustee would reinvest anything they didn't spend every year. If it built up significantly, they could set up another trust and designate it for their favorite charity into perpetuity. Many rich trustees live under the shadow of Dad's or Grandpa's wealth. This would ensure their name was held in high regard "forever".. Or, they could set up trusts for yet to be born children. It might benefit someone (consult with an attorney) to start a separate trust for the wife with or without her knowledge. It might be a way to save your wealth in the event of a divorce since "she would have her own money."

I’m sure most if not all girls I date are attracted to some degree by my money, but I just spend money on them occasionally, I don’t see any way for me to lose my fortune by these girls.

      The real threat to your wealth comes later if the living status is common law or if a child is conceived. This allows the gold digger the legal tools to leave the relationship and have the state step in to enact financial penalties for support.
      The impact of common law or marriages that break down for spousal support range from the this is annoying to have to pay to this is ridiculous how much they got and I have to pay.
      When children are involved …. RIP to 14-16% of your gross income for just one kid and more of you have multiple kids. And that’s before irregular expenses are applied like child care. The hit you take for this is scaled towards the income difference between parents as well as proportion of time the kids spend with the higher income earner (the less time the gold maker spends with their kids the more they have to pay the other parent).

      3) No co-habitation

  • @AllDaGoodNamesRGone
    @AllDaGoodNamesRGone 2 роки тому +43

    My first step was always going to be "lock it away in a bond, GIC, or Savings account for one year." Let the adrenaline, and all the "good ideas" come and go, and take the whole time researching videos like this, shop around for advice, lawyers etc. I understand it would lose some value, but 1) if it was a surprise, it's money I wasn't planning on anyway and 2) like this video talks about, I run a big risk of losing a lot if I don't slow down and think it through.

    • @MagiconIce
      @MagiconIce 2 роки тому +7

      This 2% inflation (or right now even more) really hurts more with big absolute sums.
      I wouldn't lock it away in a bank account to rot from inflation, I would invest it into an ETF, something safe like a MSCI World. This literally can't bankrupt you except in case of a global apocalypse like e.g. a nuclear exchange. And in that case you worry about a lot of other things, not your stock market investments. Or you die in the exchange, so you don't worry about it either.
      Otherwise this idea sounds nice.

    • @RAGEMETHOD
      @RAGEMETHOD 2 роки тому +8

      Another thing I've heard is to avoid putting all your money in 1 bank. Should enough people withdraw money at the same time, the bank can become insolvent and not be able to cash you out. This also happens when a bank goes under. In the end, the bank might not even be able to pay you back, and if they do, it could potentially take years to pay you back 100%.

    "if you only have 24 hours to spend 100M dollars, what do you do?"
    My immediate response was to dump it all into an S&P 500 index fund in one go. Shouldn't be a problem as long as it's a weekday, even if maybe you temporarily spike share prices in the process (thereby getting a worse deal than you could've otherwise with an iceberg trade).

      The thing is that’s not spending. You’re transferring value from currency to equities. Just like the real estate analogy he made. When you buy a $50 million mansion, you just transferred the value into real estate.
