how one hears nothing about winners of lotteries after they claim their money? I mean, if a guy suddenly founds himself in possession of a hundred million dollars, wouldn't he, if I understand human nature correctly, more visible in the public eye? He would be an instant celebrity, a jet-setter dating models, buying expensive stuff here and there, a subject of tv programs revealing his life before and after his fortune. But we never see that, do we? After the initial announcement that so and so won such and such amount, making him an instant millionaire, he suddenly disappears.
I know there are security reasons behind these and that there hundreds, perhaps thousands of other millionaires out there who are not inclined to media exposure. But given the circumstance behind a lottery-winner, wouldn't the media be all over him? Hmmm...
