Congrats, I’m extremely happy for you! First step is to take out a loan against your winnings and purchase a house. Don’t buy it in cash - you can make that money go a lot further if you reinvest it into boomer stocks.

From there, just go back to living your life the way you were. Quit your job for something that is less stressful, maybe, but keep working for the time being. Don’t even pay attention to the account unless you’re personally managing your investments. In ten years from now, reevaluate your finances and retire. Spend the rest of your years organizing and provide financial support to local causes you support.

That’s what I would do, anyway. Best of luck!
