For personal safety reasons, I wouldn’t be putting my name out there. Definitely put my photos.
Not very lucky: everyone now knows his name and face. He’d better make plans to move to a different place. Every huckster, and relatives he didn’t know he had, will be after him.
You don’t have to tell anyone, the government will publicize it.
There are just a few where anonymity is possible.
$4.7 after taxes.
Good for him but he’s still a luck sucker they just suck all the luck away from you.

Then there was this story from 2018:

The state auditor at the time,a Republican,said that the only thing worse for him would have been if his own mother had won.
It turns out that Bulger had heard of someone in the neighborhood who owned the winning ticket and made him an offer he couldn't refuse.
I won 5000 once on a scratch-off. And it only cost me about 15,000 through the years :-).. I’m a shrewd investor!

I think banks have a way to know where else you bank, through their well-connected network. So wave that anonymity goodbye.
But most definitely yes, tell NO ONE, not ever your spouse.
I think it would be fun to do anonymous good deeds for deserving people who would never know who did it. As for my lifestyle, I’m the type who wouldn’t change anything, almost.
How would you know that?
The odds of winning two lotteries means he was probably heavily invested in buying tickets, probably spending tens of thousands over the years. Still a good return, but a foolish risk.
Well, forget it, then. I won’t leave my home and family for less than $8 million. *SNORT* :)

True indeed...
But, in this case, I don’t think he spent $4 million on lottery tickets before he won his first $4 million prize...That’s what I was thinking about...
