It is my understanding that lottery winnings can be claimed through a blind trust in many states, which protects a winner from public disclosure.
Agreed. It varies state by state. For example, in Ohio, a blind trust can claim the prize. In Illinois, they reserve the right to use your inage under the laws setting up the lottery.

Once many yrs back i made the mistake of telling a few people how much money i saved up while in the army in germany for 2 yrs. Within a short time more then a few so called friends were asking me for a loan. When i said "no" needless to say they avoided me at all costs.
I can handle saying NO. This is one problem I'd like to have.
I think it's safe to say that if you suck at handling money before you win, you will suck at handling money after you win.
