Keep you notions of what it means to be rich in your own thread :P

I'd be perfectly fine winning the lottery thank you very much.

Hey I bought tickets too, but in all seriousness, I can't even begin to imagine how people would utterly despise me for winning.

There is an old saying that G-D never makes a Frummy win the lotto, so as not to cause Agmas Nefesh to other Frummies.

Hey I wouldn't hate you for winning- because I wouldn't want to win. Some others however... (I won't say names)...

Do you really think that you can keep something like winning 600 million dollars a secret?

No chance.

I hate this 600 figure. Divide by 2 for 2 winners, divide by 2 again for cash, divide by 2 again for taxes.

Oh yeah, keeping $75,000,000 under wraps is easy peez. 

There is zero chance that everyone you know doesn't find out. Now for me 'everyone I know' is a pretty small number but for you Dan...

You will spend your life outmaneuvering friends, new relatives and Israeli shluchim for a start. How is that an upgrade from what you have now?

They were showing last night on cbs that in CA there's no taxes on lottery winnings.

There's still 40% federal.
And most states and cities do have lottery taxes.  Surprised CA doesn't but that will save you 14%.
