In many states...you don't have to reveal your name. You can just create a LLC or Trust.

And then...your full-time job would be managing those monies.

Which would create some interesting dilemma's....

Really?
I wonder if I could do that with my gun trust if I won.

Tomorrow morning, the convenience store clerk that sold the winning ticket will be on the local news. Some reporter will pay the convenience store manager a few bucks for the security video showing the winning ticket being sold. If the winner does not come forward that day, the video will be on the news the next day.

Good luck staying anonymous if you win a $500 million lotary.

Actually, I think there are only a couple states where you can remain anonymous. That’s for good reason so prizes don’t just go into politicians’ pockets.

And then there’s the case of the $14 million Hot Lotto ticket bought by the head of security for the multi-state lottery. He tried to claim it anonymously and is facing felony charges.
