> You're not fucked if you win the lottery... The amount you can afford with 100 million is incredible. Buy a huge lot and hire security. You're correct about not being fucked. It's dramatically easier than that though. Just go melt into New York City, where there are many thousands of people in that general wealth category. The US has ~180,000 people with $30 million or more in wealth. 180,000! You can trivially vanish in numerous major cities in the US if you have $100 million. No need to hire elaborate security or buy a fortress. With $1b it's still difficult to vanish; with $100m it's trivial. You won't show up on the money lists, the public won't know you exist, you won't be famous, the news media and paparazzi isn't going to hound you.
