Hypothetical - Comp Sci Phd Student; Lottery.

Let’s say that I’m a Computer Science Phd genius at MIT and I’ve just won half a billion dollars on the lottery.

What do I do?

Do you think I could turn that into billions of dollars? What would you do if you were this person?

Be content with the half billion. The quickest way to turn a large fortune into a small fortune is ti try to make a larger fortune.

Trick question: comp sci PhD students at MIT are far too pedantic about probability to play the lottery.
