“...to be replaced by a whole bunch of new problems. “

You can say that again.

I would be much happier winning $5m, than I would one of these mega jackpots.

Exactly. Five million sends your kids to college and pads a nice retirement but isn't so obscenely much that you'd go broke buying everyone you know a home. You could be low-key about it.

$500 million and you'd have to disappear, fall off the face of the earth. The meritless lawsuits alone would be relentless. "She promised to split it 50/50..." "He's my baby daddy!"

I think you mean $10M. Remember you got to share half with the govt.
