Move to a city where you can hopefully find at least one other person with the same name as you. If a Terminator-like situation starts to happen but instead it's someone is trying to get you or your money, pack your poo poo and run to another town and repeat the process.

Use the money to start your own lottery with lower payouts, but guaranteed winners where only 20% of the ticket sales goes into the jackpot prize.

You'd get picked on by other billionaires at super-secret billionaire parties and get stuck with "Mike Vick" as a nickname if they were to find out because they're such judgmental bitches. I mean it's not like you're making them fight to the death, now that would be cruel.

I think we’re just at the point this is worth it. Lump sum prize is $380M and it would cost you $300M to buy every combination. Ofc if someone else picked the winning number as well, youd be hosed.

Buying out the lotto is also logistically difficult because you have to find a way to print and then buy all of the associated combinations

It's been done (and was made illegal in that state) in the past.

Your risks of having to share the jackpot are also mitigated to an extent by the partial pays you win in addition to the jackpot.

But if you bought every possible combination, isn't the the 5+0 prize is still $1M regardless of number of winners, right? You'd have 24 of those right off the bat, plus whatever your cut of the main prize would be.

A 4+1 winner is $10,000, so you'd have 5 of those, too. (edit: I take this back, it's likely way more than 5, I didn't really think the math through on this, but you'd have maybe a few hundred of these, too.)

Then all your 4+0 winners would give you $500 each, but without doing the math I'm going to estimate close to 80-100 of those. (Edit: taking this back also. I thought about it and you'd probably have nearly 500-1000 of these, right?) So even if you lost everything and the full prize was split even 100 ways, you'd probably recoup about $15M after taxes.

lotto winner idea: what if you got a homeless and let him live in a butlered mansion and gave him access to all the free booze and weed he could cram into his skull. the catch is he has to help you do those insane ukranian microwave experiments like ben franklins son. and when he's done with addiction and getting accidentally maimed you can help him get a job teaching little league billiards or something.

lotto winner idea: hire a crack team of scientists to make you a chipotle burrito machine. like you push a button and the pee wee's big adventure song comes on and through a series of various erotic rube goldberg devices it makes you the ultimate burrito. one of those devices has a live turtle chowing down on the lettuce for ultimate authenticity

Buy the rights to Ghostbusters from Sony.

edit: You know what, I take that back. Find a load of undervalued and forgotten IPs and buy their rights, leverage them into building a new cinematic universe. Cut the guy who claims ownership rights to a bunch of Sonic characters a check for the rights to the characters and give them all to Sega. By that time my Brewster's Millions gambit will have succeeded and I'll inherit the full value of my--

Wait, you mean this isn't being played by Brewster's Millions rules? Oh poo poo....

I'd do almost the inverse. Make a big budget effects film with zero sex and nudity, but starring nothing but adult entertainers and get it released in theaters in that dry spell between Marvel movies.

john carter lost something like $100 million dollars for disney. since the source material is public domain, you can film yourself burning down 50 one million dollar homes with a flamethrower while shouting "i'm john carter!!!" release it and not sell a single ticket, and it would still be technically way more financially successful than disney's version.

No winner. Estimated at $868 on Friday. 2nd largest ever. I have a feeling it will go higher due to all the workplaces going crazy with pools. Three days of work of everyone talking about lotto jackpots will push it up even higher. Might hit a billion.

I liked John Carter, it was basically space Conan where he killed so many people in one scene he had to leap away from his initial corpse pile to start another one and his dog had his own corpse pile.
