'A marching band to play me into work so I can hand in my resignation': 20+ purchases to make after winning the lottery

For better or for worse, everyone has had that passing thought about what they would do first if they won the lottery. Ok, maybe nepo babies aside, everyone else has considered this possibility. Would you do something practical like paying off student loans or getting a financial advisor to figure out how to manage all this money? Or would you do something completely shallow like go on an immediate shopping spree? Personally, I would do both at once. Heck, if I won the lottery, why can't I be alternately smart and foolish with my earnings?

All this to say, it's remarkable how practical so many folks were when responding to this prompt, which was shared to r/AskReddit. Clearly, many of you have considered this "what if" question deeply already. Keep scrolling below for the full list and be sure to share what you would do right after collecting your lottery winnings. For more content like this, check out this compilation of wedding fails.
