The financial advisor told BLACK ENTERPRISE the steps that everyone should take after hitting the jackpot. Build a team quickly after winning. If you're playing the lottery with others, have an agreement beforehand. Stay away from depreciating assets. If you can't tell family and friends no, hire someone to say it instead.

Taylor Insurance Financial Services Founder and President Eszylfie Taylor told BLACK ENTERPRISE, “70% of lottery winners go bankrupt within five years.” The current Powerball amount is $170 million, and last month a California resident won a $2 billion Powerball jackpot. While you may think it’s impossible to waste that amount of money during your adult life, Taylor, a Concordia University graduate, knows it’s not that hard. The financial advisor told BLACK ENTERPRISE the steps that everyone should take after hitting the jackpot.

Read More »Taylor cautioned that it’s easy for workers and families to buy lottery tickets together when the Powerball hits more than $1 billion, but when it comes to splitting up the money, it can cause fast enemies and arguments that ruin relationships. Taylor told BLACK ENTERPRISE that communicating and taking care of things before you buy the tickets can save a group a lot of yelling and money on the back end. “There’s something called a covert contract, meaning that we create agreements with other people based on what we believe is reasonable or based on what we would want to be done for us and what we think is fair, but that other person never actually agreed to it, hence the word covert,” Taylor said. “So the only way to eliminate covert contracts is that you be abundantly clear and communicate your needs and the needs of people that are around you and that way that avoids all confusion.”

Taylor suggests letting your financial advisors tell others no, after all, that’s why you’re paying them. “That’s something that I’ve dealt with when it comes to clients in the past and this is where I think again aligning yourself with a great advisor and a great team comes into play because you can make them the bad guy,” Taylor told BLACK ENTERPRISE. “So I tell people all the time your uncle Charlie doesn’t need to like me, when he asks you for money say I have to talk to my financial guy and then I’ll say no, so that’s one way, put it off on other people because a longtime family member or friend that asks you for money and you say no, it could create friction, so that’s something where I could be the bad guy and I like playing that role.” Taylor, born and raised in Pasadena, Calif., attended Concordia University on a basketball scholarship and earned a bachelor’s degree in Business Management. The financial advisor also briefly played in the NBA for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Taylor spent 12 years at New York Life Insurance, handling the finances of some of Hollywood’s biggest stars, and has used his financial experience to develop his proprietary sales process known as The Taylor Method.
