I had a neighbor that won $20 million back in the mid 1990's. He took the cash pay out, and moved. He burned through the cash in under 7 years. It's a good thing he didn't sell his old house...he ended up moving back into it, and drives a second hand GM now.

It was sad to see that happen to him, but he had no idea how to handle having that much cash.
