What did you do when you realized you'd hit the jackpot?
At first I was so astounded I just sat and looked at the screen, then I sat and debated whether I wanted to yell at my husband to come look or keep all the money for myself. I decided to yell at my husband being the nice person that I am (really I am) Then he came and looked and being computer illiterate that he is he said" is that real money?" I asured him that it is, and his next question was " how do you get it?" I asured him I knew how.
