Do what the old iraqi leader did. Have 3 others pose as you and have like 6 houses. They will only have a 25% chance of actually getting you.
When You Win PB or Mega Lottey
- Thread starter FallOf81
- Start date
Someone in CA won $1.1 million. That means they had 5 of 5, no PB ($1mil), and 2 lines with 4 of 5 with PB ($50k each) right?
The problem is I wouldn’t want to move and sure as **** don’t want to be living amongst celebrities.
Warren Buffett lives in Omaha. Stine in Adel right? I think the risk is overblown
Celebrities were just an example.
Also you mentioned leaving the country, just saying there are options to move to places where you'd stand out less without leaving the country.
That being said, we also have a couple billionaires in Iowa.
And Albaugh in Ankeny. His house isn't exactly some fortress either.

The history of jackpot winners says differently.
Sounds like there is a bunch of people in this thread scared to win, so just let me win, i ain't scared and you guys will see my pretty face plastered all over the place.
For real. If you guys are worried about your safety I'll take your prize.
I was just looking at CF posts and there's one called "Winning is Fun." Sounds like a great philosophy. If you can't deal with it, then yeah, don't buy a ticket.

Right. Even if it's not fully formed, thinking "I'll lay low and plot out a strategy, work with an investment guy, a lawyer to set up a trust or whatever, and some security provisions to possibly include moving to a location where you're unknown. Possibly even legally changing your name after the fact.
1.5 billion wasn't enough for me, but I bought a ticket for the 1.9 billion. I feel like that extra 400 million would allow me to retire comfortably lol
I’m not. Have a plan. Definitely would show you who your true friends and family are or have been.
I'd probably give money to my second Alma mater. Plus I don't really see myself ever going back to ames.
