Yup. Plus they won't have to worry about getting sued by a bicyclist looking for easy money. Another great perk of anonymity.

free health care,

4 to 5 weeks of annual leave,

paid sick leave,

plus paid public holidays,

unarmed police,

capped university fees,

freedom to gamble in any town, online and through the TV during live sports,

employment protection to prevent at-will firings,

freedom to join trade unions,

Whew, MaximumMillions, it is a shame that you didn't win this whopper of a jackpot with your lottery ticket(s).

I don't play the game, so wishing you best luck for your next EuroMillions multi-million jackpot lottery ticket

Well, there go my lottery dreams.

Good on them though.

I would not go public, that is for da*n sure.

Most winners don't go public, except for the british ones.

I guess it could be because the UK still has a kind of unofficial caste system and the winners want to show them all they've done it. Can't understand it because the british press is so vicous, the way they described Angela Kelly for example.

In Australia, winners also have the option of remaining anonymous and most do. There was a kidnapping case back in the '60, a winners child was held for ransom, but sadly killed. The law was changed to allow anonymity as a result.

Many winners who go public often regret it later. It is not about secrecy, it's about security. Why let every crackpot know your financial situation

No Taxex

Cash in a week

Remaining Anonymous

Amazing how the greatest country in the world can't use common sense and have these things as well.

PS Nah we would rather try to pass bills where you have to pay to be anonymous

Given the option, I can't imagine why someone would chose otherwise, how could anonymous be a mistake
