Source: CNBC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For the Powerball jackpot winner, Cramer said: \u201cWhen you are super rich like this, your main worry is not the taxman. You\u2019ve got to be worried about inflation, specifically hyperinflation, that\u2019s the only thing that can really threaten the nine-digit fortune.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He continued, \u201cSo what holds value during periods of hyperinflation?\u201d Cramer revealed, \u201cYou may not know this but it\u2019s precious metals, real estate, and great art.\u201d The Mad Money host has long been a gold proponent. He advised, \u201cAs for gold, yes, 5% jackpot into bullion.\u201d However, he also warned, \u201cDon\u2019t store the bullion at home, put it in safety deposit boxes.\u201d Cramer added:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>If you won the lottery, go ahead, yes, I am going to say it, 5% in bitcoin.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Cramer further suggested without going into any detail: \u201cDon\u2019t buy it all at once, crypto could be incredibly volatile. Don\u2019t buy on the weekend. But it\u2019s an important new storehold of value.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- growjs zone placement 31 --> <ins> <ins class=\"growjs-placement\"><\/ins> <\/ins> <!-- end of growjs zone placement --> <\/p>\n<p>Besides recommending investments, Cramer also provided some general advice for Powerball jackpot winners, such as to watch out for scammers and to collect their winnings as a lump sum rather than annuities. \u201cAlways take the lump sum. You can stick it in treasury bonds and the interest you will accrue will make you more than if you took the annuity,\u201d the Mad Money host said.<\/p>\n<p>Cramer himself began <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/mad-money-jim-cramer-bitcoin-inflation\/\">looking into<\/a> investing in <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BTC<\/a> due to concerns of massive inflation. In December, he revealed that he had <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/mad-money-jim-cramer-buys-bitcoin-strategy-to-increase-holdings\/\">bought<\/a> some bitcoin but <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/mad-moneys-jim-cramer-how-to-invest-in-bitcoin\/\">sold<\/a> the cryptocurrency earlier this month. He said to treat <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BTC<\/a> like a stock: \u201cAs I tell people \u2026 if you have a double, take a lot out \u2026 It\u2019s just no different from a stock.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What do you think about Jim Cramer\u2019s bitcoin advice?
