Winning the lottery is rare. But sometimes getting a windfall of money in other ways can feel similar – maybe from selling a business or real estate or getting an inheritance.
It can be a bit overwhelming. And each decision you make will have ripple effects through the rest of your life – just like water on a lake.
That’s why it’s best to get advice from the beginning, about how to make that money last – so you won’t end up back where you started, or worse.
You may have the urge to take an extravagant vacation or buy a big new house. Have you considered the extra costs? Property taxes, insurance fees, maintenance costs, and on and on.
