Don't know what to do next

I am a full-time student and I am currently unemployed. My boyfriend bought me a powerball ticket for my birthday months ago, which I just found today at the bottom of my purse. I checked it online, imagining I would just throw it away. I won $40,000. What do I do now? Do I change my FAFSA, call the school? I think I will lose my financial aid for the rest of this year, and for next year, right? So even though I won, after taxes and losing my financial aid, I don't feel like much of a winner, lol. What should I do first?

I am being completely serious, this is not a joke. I really need to know what to do. I don't want to do the wrong thing and get in trouble.

Hi! This subforum is for questions or concerns about the forums themselves or the people on them. You might have better luck if you post your question in the Financial Aid subforum: Financial Aid & Scholarships - College Confidential

Good luck!
