Another insane win!! $ 1B mega million jackpot

[virasisog]

I envy lucky people in gambling. I guess if it's meant for you you will win it no matter how often you have bet on lotteries. This huge amount of money can sustain your lifetime expenses if used wisely, you can also use this huge amount to start a business. I just hope the winner can secure his funds properly. It would be best if they will keep the winner anonymous for security purposes.

I do not think that disclosing the identity of the winner is not a good thing, security and safety reasons above all. I believe that casino have a policy not to disclose the winner to the public, don’t they? And yes, hiring security personnel is crucial for the safety of the winner and amount being talked about. I just hope that whoever the winner is, will spend and invest wisely especially during this uncertain times no one knows if a thing will lasts. And of course, to give back and help others as well. A blessing is more meaningful if shared with other people.

Heard of it. Insane money to be honest. Like you have to be extremely lucky to hit the numbers!

In the last few weeks Americans have been very lucky in the lottery, this time there is a man who won $ 1 billion dollars from the mega million lotteries.  btw, I have tried playing mega billions several times at (cut this part) but never had any luck.  for unclear reasons, the man's identity is still a secret.  

I have heard the odds are something like 1 in 500 million. So keep trying, maybe one day  . Oh and we all know why that man's identity is still a  secret. He just doesn't want "unwanted" attention .

-snip-
the tax cut was huge but I sure it certainly wouldn't piss him off.

He should be taking home around 600k USD after taxes. That is still a shit load of money.

It would be compulsory for the agency facilitating these lotteries to conceal the winner's names and identity whether they like it or not, this is to further protect their privacy and fend off potential criminals from doing harm against them. Sure, their neighbors may know about it, but it's better than having 50 states know that you won a billion dollar jackpot eh?

If it's any consolation, their odds at winning is the same as ours, they just got way too early at winning than us. So you either succumb yourself to your envy, or work our way up the top of the ladder so we don't have to rely too much on luck to have a productive life.

This image says everything.
The biggest threat to jackpot owners aren't the unknown ones on the street, but the closest people or potential closest people: friends, relatives and especially affairs... I remember once a common man won the jackpot on the lottery in my country and soon as he was noticed the winner a young girl approached him and after few months they were marrying. Not too much time later he was murdered.
Police investigations discovered his wife was behind his murder, as she was the person to take his heritage in this case. When you see a story like this you realize there aren't bodyguards who can't save you from this kind of threat. So privacy is important, but more important than that is to know who really is by your side.

So true everyone knows and loves you when you have the money but only few would stay when things go wrong so you should choose carefully who you would be trusting and who you would be helping in the future.
When I was having the time of my life I forgot those who help me when I was nothing and now that I am back on being nothing I really feel shameful for it although I did invite them to hang out when I have the money but I feel like I could have done more and make them feel like they are part of my success because they supported me and didn't leave me when I was just starting.

P.S I didn't win in lottery or hit any jackpot I just earn money from crypto.

This money isn't that easy to hide especially if you already said it to other people and for sure he said it already to some people since we have an instinct that if we won a huge money, we tend to share it to other people or some relatives at least.

Either way, still congratulations for him and he is a very lucky bettor. I don't bet on lotteries because I believe that I will not win on it and it has a low chances of winning on it. Instead of putting it on lottery, I will just save it and invest into other assets

In some of the lotteries, there is no option for the jackpot winner to remain anonymous. As per the terms and conditions, the details of the winner will be made public. And these lotteries need this, as an advertisement. Only a minority of the games give you an option to remain anonymous. Therefore you may need to deal with the inundation of "born-again" relatives and friends for the initial few months. The question is how to deal with them. You are under no obligation to share even a penny with any of them. Be strict with this, because if you become soft then your winnings may vanish in a few years time. If you feel that there is someone who genuinely needs your help, then there is no problem in spending 1% or 2% of your winnings for that purpose. But for the rest, you need to be very strict.

That is a huge win, however I think it is understandable that he has not come forward, after all that is a lot of money and he could become the victim of criminals and scammers so he is probably worried about it, where I live you can send your legal representative to get the prize money for you, the lottery will know your name and who you are but your identity will be protected from public scrutiny, so I do not know if the winner can do this to avoid all the attention of the media.

I wouldn't send someone to represent that amount for me. I'll take the amount and get to visit personally since it's huge money that's you're about to claim. Although it's possible to have a representative we're talking about huge money in here and you don't trust anyone with that amount.

I don't know if that is granted if there is a representative to claim the prize, as I know you are personally going there as a winner of the prize.
That's a problem because once there are greedy people who know your identity that you have won a huge amount, it is easy for them to find ways how to get your money, blackmailing or even kidnapping someone of your loved ones in exchange for money.

If you see, most are prefer to become anonymous if they will win in the lottery, hiding your identity is something safe in my opinion, than publicly shouting that you have won on lottery.

Maybe it's a case to case basis but as I've said the representative can do such crazy thing with that amount and lose the trust you've put into.
I understand the point of sending representative but if with this money at stake, it's no use to ask someone claim it for you.

So he is Lucky because that huge win did not bring Him Death not like who's written on this thread

All of them Died after winning and having Heart attack because of overjoy feeling.

Sometimes Good things did not come to those who wait 

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But really this is a Huge Win and cannot be denied of the Most luckiest man in gambling ever , 1 billion Dollar .

With that much winnings, hiring a security firm would be a must!
I would only take the winnings to the Bank in order to buy Bitcoin.

Do the lottery company provide any sort of financial advice for their
winners? It seems strange that they would let you walk out the door
with a suitcase of money without first making sure the winner has
a basic knowledge or insight into future planning.

If you go to the Bank to buy bitcoin with that large money, it can make the Bank suspicious because they will ask you where you got that money.
If they know that you win the jackpot, maybe they can ask you to pay your account's tax. But just hope that will not happen to you.
I guess the lottery company will not advise on what the winner should do, but they can suggest hiring security firms to guard you to go home or the Bank.
We can wish that the winner will not get a heart attack when he sees huge money in the case or on the table.

This is a real life situation on where you do incase on hitting the jackpot then thats the only time that your relatives or fake friends will really be just approaching to you for that very common reason
which is to ask some part of your winnings.I do actually laugh into those meme's above which are actually telling the truth when situations like this do happen on someones life.
Hitting up a jackpot is a life changing situation and imagine on how big the amount is then that will surely attract of those people who are connected to you or even
to those already far-off. This is why you should really be clever because spending those winnings extravagantly will really just result into something non pleasant later on.

[Fundamentals Of]

This is more than a life-changing jackpot. This is going to be a treasure that would definitely support the winner for the rest of his or her life. In fact, this is more than what the winner probably needs until the last day. This is going change not just the life of the winner but definitely the lives of his or her family, relatives, and loved ones as well.

Is it going to be better for huge jackpot lotteries such as this billion-dollar mega jackpot to be divided into 2 or 4 so that there will be more happy winners?

He almost got one for sure but since he's still alive, he is meant to become a BILLIONAIRE.
I can't still find my luck on lottery event if I bet thrice or more a week, but because of pandemic I have to pause for a while and spend my money on my foods rather. Anyway, I hope that guy knows how to handle Money so he won't be for again, ever.

[crzy]

That's a real mega jackpot and I can't imagine myself on that situation, I guess he's the lucky guy this year and I wish him the best and enjoy spending that money. Big jackpots attracts many bettors, and I hope that this is not a joke just to say someone won but in reality, that was just part of the game. Looks like 2021 is the real life changing, more good news to come hopefully.

That is mostly the reason why they bet in these lotteries.

They are aiming to be able to win that huge amount despite the fact that the chances or the possibility of them winning that millions or even billions of the price are so low it is close to zero. I just hope that these multiple wins in the lottery mean that this year will be a prosperous and a lucky one compared to the recent year.

[qory]

Very lucky person, with that money you could spend it all how you want but still if they don't handle it well it can go fast easily but with that amount I really don't think you can spend it fast but maybe you could invest it into something else maybe real estate?

[MCVXYZ]

I think it's not an unclear reason to stay the winner's identity secret,  its good for the winner to keep secret his/her identity for the safety. It's about 1 billion dollars, just imagine...and of course, the winner is very lucky , because its very rare to win that amount of jackpot, even 0.1 % of this money

If the casino or the winner announces their winning, it could attract criminals and make them become a victim of the crime.
So it is better to keep their identity secret without any people know so that the winner can get the money safely.
But the winner must have a bodyguard to guard them to go home, so they will not have a problem with the criminals.
I think the winner can choose a one-time cash payment, and even if they only get $530 million after-tax, that still a lot of money.

or he can also change the life of someone else , someone that is poor and needs money . if im one of the winners i will not hesitate helping people in need and i will also provide jobs to unemployed people because i was currently on this state of living .

Is it going to be better for huge jackpot lotteries such as this billion-dollar mega jackpot to be divided into 2 or 4 so that there will be more happy winners?

yes its possible and already been aproved . the prize will be divided equally to the winners if they are also winner that has the same number as the other . fewer people are going to be happy instead of one but if more people win ? i dont think its still going to be happy
