Default You win the lottery, then you die, who do you leave the money to?

You win the lottery, say a million.

Then discover you are dieing.

If that's not an option though, I suppose family. Or cats. Not a charity, just... cats.

Well, that would be shit luck!

I'd give some to Laurel and some to Merritt. Maybe 50p each.

Then I'd give the rest to my family and my cats would have solid gold food and water bowls.

My son and husband without a doubt.

But, if they weren't around then it can all go to charity. In fact somewhere in my Will I've instructed that all of my worldly possessions are to be left to an animal charity if my nearest and dearest weren't around as I don't see why some well off cousin 10x removed should get their mitts on it.

I'd set up some elaborate treasure hunt for the cash, only to bury it in a completely different location for lols. Sorry treasure hunters, figure that one out! My ghost is laughing at you.
The final clue is just: fthdvkifvskkhgwgvklkesvnjf. Though I think that's a small settlement in Iceland.

It would all go to a controversial political cause

Family of course is where it's at! Let me sign on the dotted line and feel content in knowing that my wealth will help present and future generations of my family! While also leaving money to good causes.

Then there is the other part of me that wants to inhale as much life as I possibly can and then shuffle off a happy penniless wreck! Although my lung capacity for life is somewhat limited because of my SA. But with extreme wealth I would certainly upgrade my Pot Noodles to king size and I would definitely drink Ben Shaws by the barrel. Which to me seems unattainable right now, but everyone has got to have a dream!

Both are great ideas of course! Although idk? I did have my heart set on leaving my body to medical science. Which to me is the ultimate exposure therapy. It's certainly given me food for thought! Or Ben Shaws for thought!

I'd love to be processed into a sachet of flavour dust when I cark it. Taste the Merritt.

You could do it as an art project.

This isn't funny (like the above), but it will be left to wildlife charities. Whether I win the lottery or not. There will be no relatives to leave it too (unless my sister outlasts me, which is unlikely...).

I would hopefully spend it all before the funeral,
Copious amounts of Cocaine and hookers would certainly ease the pain of my untimely demise.

It'd all be done purely on an investigative basis of course, just to see what all the fuss was about,
and in that vein I might also try wagu beef and manuka honey.
