I won at Mega-Sena, what do I do now?

The title question of this text is possibly one that you would most like to do in life, right? Unfortunately, if you are not the Federal District gambler who took alone the $ 205 million draw on Wednesday (25), your time has not yet come. Still, hope is the last one that dies, and you might be a happy winner someday.

When we wonder what it would be like if we won the lottery, we always think about the things we would buy, the gifts, the trips, the expensive aesthetic treatments we would submit to, but we don't always ask ourselves: what does a Mega Winner have to do?

The first advice is, despite the extreme happiness of discovering a millionaire, calming down, making a face, not spreading to everyone, and as soon as you can stop screaming, go to the nearest Caixa Econômica bank. you. Don't forget the obvious: take your ID and CPF with you - and the winning ticket, of course!

According to Caixa, it is interesting that the winner writes his or her name on the back of the ticket, along with his ID and CPF numbers - so if any smart guy can steal his passport for wealth, he will not be able to withdraw all the snort.

The redemption of money is the easiest part of the process, and what starts with a lot of luck usually has a happy ending in a matter of 48 hours. That's right: After you kill the Envy Box clerk by showing your ticket, the money will be in your account in two days.

After that you can do whatever you want with your fortune. You can withdraw money, transfer it to other banks, or even abuse Caixa's resource, which has its own proposals and programs for millionaire prize winners - the bank itself will offer to advise you on investment and income.

Although it is obvious, it is worth remembering that after a while the money can no longer be withdrawn. It's always good to check your tickets as soon as the numbers are drawn - if after 90 days you find out you've won but haven't gone to Caixa's agency, you won't be able to withdraw the prize anymore. When this happens, the entire amount is donated to the Student Financing Fund (FIES). And nothing you do can change that.
