    I think I could actually lay low pretty easy. Everything I’d buy people know I’ve been saving up for for a while. And they all take time to get even if you have the money so it wouldn’t be all at once.

    Plus my “dream [property/vehicle/hobby items/etc]” are all fairly atainable. Like theres a certain classic vehicle I want that usually goes for 20-30k just the configuration I want is a little difficult to find.

      Not all states allow you to collect winnings anonymously. I doubt your relatives are actively monitoring lottery winners, but there may be some sleazy, ambulance chasing lawyers that do and would “preemptively” reach out to family and friends to let them know they’re happy to represent them if they “just so happen” to suffer any damages from you.
