This feels just wrong. And i can't find a single reason for this. Let the winner at least buy security before calling them out.
Yes, there should be at least a winner protection program or some sort.
But it's clearly stated that Wisconsin has now laws regarding that therefore, all bettors here are supposed to know already and understand what they are up to once they won. They are not even forced to bet in the lottery in the first place.
Actually, if that's my case, I'd rather strongly hope first that luck will hit me as to how to claim the money, at least, in private, can think about later on.
Well obviously it would be better to win big then not to win and keep your identity secret, but i just don't understand how "i wasnt forced to gamble" would any good explanation. For the lack of personal security. Its like my plane would crash and insurance people would say that i wasn't forced to fly, that i knew the risks.
In Finland everyone's income taxes are public information. I know that many countries view this as shocking, but at least they have time to make their addresses private and hire better security before their taxes are released at the end of the year. Not that we have much problems with robberies in the first place.
