macarthur1977	I know two people who won the lottery about 25 years ago. One had an all out party for friends. Lobster, shrimp, filet mignon, champagne, he did the works.

diamondintheruff	no i would not go public, if I did I would suddenly have 100 new cousins whom i never met.

vanman8u	No. What I would do is make like i'm just successful. And I would buy billboards in my homwtown. And the only thing that would be on them would be a message that said "Chad B%&$#ings bought this billboard just for the heck of it." It might be dangerous to go public with that and still be able to frequent the areas you used to. Someone would try to get a ransom from u. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
