czarmonger posted:How many people in this thread actually believe there is even the slightest possibility of winning big on these racket? Yeah, the odds are astronomical and it's a weird phenomenon that everyone gets caught up in the higher the jackpot goes, because a measly $30 million jackpot apparently isn't worth your 2 bucks. But it's fun to fantasize about all the cool poo poo you'd do and buy if you won.

I've never played the lottery and don't intend to start now, but if I were to win the lottery, I'd see if there was any contingency for accepting the winning anonymously. I can't imagine getting hounded all day every day not just by strangers but also slack-jawed fifth cousins, not to mention all the other shady poo poo people would try (ransoming you or your loved ones, harassment from any public or private entity that could try to sue or fine you into oblivion).

If I won a bunch of money I'd probably rent a private military to protect me and then one of them would kill me in my sleep and my family would destroy itself fighting over my money

Only 6 states let you do it anonymously. What people do is set up llcs that receive the money so their personal info isn't public , but I think they still require you to pick up the novelty giant check in person. Basically if you win you're gonna have a whole lot of friends you never knew you had.

Just see if you can get the contact info or a meeting with a ridiculously wealthy person and pick their brain about the best ways to navigate being super loving rich at first. I think you'd probably start with lawyer, financial planner, plane tickets out of the country, and deleting the most personal information you can about yourself. Never post anything on social media, at least in the immediate aftermath. Being out of the country or somewhere like manhattan would probably increase your chances greatly of blending in to the background. If you insist on sticking around maybe put a security firm on retainer for a little while to make sure you don't get hassled or threatened and refer everyone with complaints, problems, requests to your lawyer. I'd like to imagine that my life long friends wouldn't turn into money crazed fools and I'd hook them up with whatever they wanted right after winnings come in. The extended family would probably be the biggest problem though. I have an aunt and cousins who live in trailers in North Carolina and I can imagine them doing something drastic. Maybe the mountains of Switzerland would be the best landing spot or somewhere pretty and secluded like lake como.

Id just vacation internationally for a month or two immediately afterwards and only give my new number to a few people, anyone dumb enough to try and stalk me begging for money or try to kidnap my family isnt going to have the kind of money to fly all over the world looking for me. edit: after that and giving my immediate family and long time friends there chunk Id tell anyone that asks that its all tied up in investments and trusts and I cant touch it.

If someone you know wins, outside of family or perhaps very close friends who you'd consider the same, would you even consider asking that person for any money? I always tell people all I ever expect is a free beer. No one owes me anything, but a billionaire can buy me one drink.

Retail Slave posted:"I'd like the winning ticket please. Hur hur hur" No. That makes them furious. "Well then, sport, you better be printin' up another one for me. Ha. ha. ha..." (then a few minutes later, after they pace around the store a few minutes) "You know, you better hope and pray you don't you win, you little cock-suckin' piece of poo poo, because if I find out you've got the winning ticket I'm going to come and take that money right out of your no-good pissant rear end... I also need to pre-pay $10 on pump 12."

Just a reminder that if you are the sole winner, you will still have less than 1/2 of the money that Internet fat man Notch, maker of Minecraft, has.
