Every Federal agency knew he had won and everything else about him before he knew

I rarely play the lottery don’t know all rules. But isn’t there at least one State that participates that the winner can remain anonymous? If so, I move to that State before claiming the prize.

[Hot Tabasco]

I’m sure there is but I don’t know which one.

[V_TWIN]

Like I said......step #1....move the hell out of California.

[Mathews]

Not a good decision my guy. I’d be more in invisible than Wonder Woman’s jet.

[Sawdring]

Time for him to go see the vacuum sales shop in ABQ

Great reference!

“He suddenly got a lot better looking”

And taller. 😏

See post 16.

I really don’t think there is any place where one can really remain anonymous if someone nosy wants to find out.

The guy could use a make over and some gym work.
Really? wearing sandals and that paunch and hair do of his.....

I think he’s handsome.

“He will be broke within 10 years.” We all will be if not sooner. 🤪

My sister-in law’s cousin won 10m Texas lottery. He was dead within 12 years.

He was already living a good life.

Be interesting to know how you can bank and protect that amount of money given the FDIC only insures accounts to what 250,000 ?

The dude abides...

[Graybeard58]

Even so, you move and you carry a debit card. A debit card with $1.5 billion on it weighs the same as a debit card with $50.

Debit cards have daily limits, mine does anyway. I can withdraw or spend $1,000 every 24 hours.

[Jonty30]

I think I can live with the idea of only accessing $30,000/month, $360,000/year.:)

I can’t imagine anything that would eat that up if you are not intending to go broke in a decade after winning.

I think, if I’m not mistaken, banks can increase your amount upon request if you have the money in the bank.

LDebit cards have daily limits, mine does anyway. I can withdraw or spend $1,000 every 24 hours.

Chase Private Bank and Private Client can withdraw upwards of $7000/day from ATMs. I imagine their may be even higher tier at Chase.

Private Client is $150k.
Private Bank is $5m

Definitely a possibility as well

“What an idiot”

That’s no way to talk about my long lost, beloved Uncle, er, whatshisface.

The problem here is that he was spotted going into a bank and coming out of the bank with a thick envelope. And it’s splashed on the newspapers on top of that. Question is who spotted him and why. Regardless of how much money he now has, who wants to be spotted entering and exiting their bank? And wants it to be reported on in a newspaper?
