I have a property (75 acres) with a million dollar view already in mind to build my house on there.

Use the win to move, or live part-time in New Zealand.

Not me, nice places to visit but I couldn't live in either... Too much of a nanny state and many of their politicians, media and lower levels in their government are even more stupid and oppurtunistic than ours.

If it was a very large win say 100 mil, I would consider immigrating to another country. New Zealand or Australia.

I've actually been there before. Then again, I am a nobody so it fits and doesn't matter.

Hopefully, with the forming of a trust and all that one could keep it quiet enough to slip away somewhere. But anywhere but where you are might be a good method, even better if your winning ticket wasn't bought in your area if you live in a small town, then you shouldn't have the nosey neighbors and suspicious people trying to figure out who won.

Yeah, my wife and I feel the same way- all we were doing was watching the show and we'll miss him, he seems like such a likable guy.

I would have a nice modest house built in the country and grow my own food. Have at least 6 trained guard dogs, a couple of horses, and all the equipment needed to keep me busy. There I would live out my life away from the ills of City life.

I don't need to imagine it. That's where I'm from! Of course I never was on top of Mt Washington during 230 mps winds. LOL I'm originally from Boston and lived in Southern NH for about 8 years, but the contiguous states are so small that it's a short hop to NH from many areas of MA, so day trips to popular spots like Lake Winnipesaukee were common growing up. I've got to admit, however, I'm not one of those adventurous souls who climb mountains or would attempt to ski down Tuckerman's Ravine. Ye... [ More ]

Best place to hide is anywhere but where you are when you hit. All the attention would be focused on your current address. If you spend the first few months quietly living elsewhere you are invisible. If you live it up, they will find you.

However, if you are in a populous area, just staying where you are might be okay, too.

I checked that one, although you probably should have added in the winter.

I just figured since winds there have been recorded at 200 mph it would be a good place to hide!

Imagine the wind chill temp with those kind of winds

Hae you ever been to the top of Mt Washington? Maybe that's why you included it in your poll. I checked that one, although you probably should have added in the winter.

Does it still have that little cog railway? I remember taking it to the top and there would be markers where people who didn't make it perished.
