Rupert Carlyon: Take a breath before you touch that windfall

from The Weekend Collective · host Newstalk ZB

Most of us have spent the past few days daydreaming about what we would spend $55 million on.  Pay off the mortgage, book a holiday, send some off to charity, throw the rest in a term deposit. Three lucky punters each one a share of the jackpot last night - $18.3 million each.  Not many of us will have the chance to come across tens of millions in our lives, but most of us will at some point get a large some from inheritance or a bonus or the likes.  So what's the smart thing to do when you get a big windfall, before the excitement takes over?  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
