McKinsey / ex-Interviewer at McKinsey / I will coach you to rock those interviews

Here is your chance to demonstrate your business acumen – because winning a lottery is nothing else than getting cash, which opens up lots of business opportunities. So you could:

  • Start your own business – think about which industries you are interested in, choose a business you would like to start and why;
  • Become an investor – again think about which industries, maybe even target companies;
  • Invest into the stock market – here also explain why (now the stock market is on the deep, so it’s cheap to buy) and exactly what would you buy and why

Hope this helps!

Best,
Daniel

I would invest it. Then take a part of it to go on a nice vacation. Maybe move to a nicer flat, in a nice district closer to my workplace. Maybe I would even buy that flat.

If I won the lottery and I assume it is a substantial amount of money, I would split the prize into 3 categories of spent:

1. Create long-term investment portfolio (bonds, stocks)

2. Invest in real-estate

3. Spend on travel

40% invest on the financial market which I have been done since 10 years, in order to generate more profit. I trust this will strength my financial portfolio;

40% invest on family business. My partner owns a start up company focus on wine industry and she is dreaming to expand her wine shops by opening more shops in tier 1 mega cities. This will be great opp for her to take further step in her adventure; 

20% will be spent on family trips. We had plans to visit different country at least one per year, to have different horizons on the world. With this cash, we may be able to increase the number of countries as we initially planned;

First and foremost, I would make sure my family is taken care of. Housing is a big issue in Israel and if I could make sure all my family members and myself have houses, it would be very meaningful to me. Second, I would invest in a company I believe in and think can make an impact on the world. Third, I would use that money to pay for a masters degree in one of the top schools in the US or Europe.

Thinking carefully about what to do with the money. It is known that lottery millionaires are poorer afterwards than before. Therefore, think well and then act!

This is not the first question asked. In reality, many people have different answers. For me, when I win the lottery I won't tell anyone. Silently buy and invite family and friends to eat, then take a small , play getting over it and accumulate some money for savings.
