This.

And if anybody asks i just tell them some investments paid off or i inherited money from a rich uncle/aunt.

If you tell the truth imagine all the people banging on your door asking to lend them money.

Nope, I'd just move to Hawaii leaving them none the wiser. As many people that ask money from me now, I'd be disgusted with the amount coming out of the woodwork if they new I had many millions.

This was all i thought about during college lol. I would only tell my immediate family until i've claimed the money. Question is, what is the process that you would go through? Find a Lawyer, Financial adviser, Financial manager. Where do you keep your ticket until the time you claim your money? I would get 5 separate bank accounts keeping 5% of the total cash in my home and probably about 20% into assets such a property and estate, due to the fact that inflation may increase. The rest will sit into my bank and gain interest until i decide to start my own business, and where i want to donate some of my wealth

Um... I think you could become a hobo right now, if you really put your mind to it. Don't be so passive. Get up off the gouch and go get down on the ground somewhere. Shoot for the stars!
