Just leave man, go on a 2 year European tour. Then go on a 2 year Asia tour, and then do it again. Good Luck with your money sir. I would never announce that in public.

Here are the golden rules when you win big in the lottery:

Take the payments over 20 years
Live off the interest
Hire an accountant
Hire an attorney
Don't tell anyone - that means NOBODY - Not your family, not your friends not your sick old grandmother...

Neither the accountant or the attorney can disclose the name of their client(you). If they do they are fired. This will leave you to decide what you need to do with the money and if you are so willing to give some of it away.

One last thing: Hide.
