If the wife has been supportive when he was not rich, hiding it from heroes is very wrong, he wanted suffering for her? Saying she's going to be lazy is just an excuse. It is very possible the man is not saying the true reason for not letting her know, or maybe I am wrong about it, but in my opinion, there is nothing bad telling her wife if not telling children. As for me, I will tell my wife about it and also look for better business to start that which will yield more income. I just know that no one that has better ambition would be able to hide the money forever, one way or the other, the family will later know that he is getting richer.

These stories fascinate me. I understand that you can hide 30,000 USD from your wife, children and friends, if you like, but 30 million? Not a chance.
Besides, I think he has the wrong mentality. It's true that there are people who win a large sum of money in the lottery and go bankrupt, but that money well managed gives you peace of mind for the rest of your life. I would make it clear to both of them, especially to the son, that as long as they behave as they should, they won't have to worry about money for the rest of their lives, but if, for example, when the son has to go to university instead of studying, he spends his time drinking, partying and doing cocaine, he won't see a penny.

He does like that for a reason, and he is the one who knows about his own family. Hiding it from his own family for a good reason is not something wrong imho. Lets say you have a wife and children who like to spend money for useless thing, or in other words they cant manage money well. It can be a reason for you to not tell them as they may ask the money then spend it for nothing. Other reason can be related to security, if his family knows means that there is a chance for his family to spread the news to others and it may attract people (the bad one) to do something against them for the money. Hiding such huge amount of money is better choice telling it to others.
The man's reasoning is reasonable, but in my personal opinion this is an irresponsible act, he should as a husband, be honest with his wife or children and even if they turn into lazy, he just needs to educate them hard.
what do you think, is the man's action right or if you experience it (win a big jackpot) will you do as the man did or even be honest with your victory to your family??
that man has been taking the best decision to hide his identity through wearing the costum, it's not only happened with him but so many winners in gambling were also doing the same to hide his identity. I think that you shall need to read this news https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-63030960what do you think, is the man's action right or if you experience it (win a big jackpot) will you do as the man did or even be honest with your victory to your family??
Winning lottery didn't mean if that will make your life even more comfortable than before. He just wanna try to avoid snow ball effect caused by revealing his identity to the public.
You can imagine if his wife will be so crazy with it and then so many people who known him will ask help from him to take loan from what he has been winning. it's not acceptable and it will be disturbing your life as well.
True. A lot of things can happen.
This is not just about preventing his wife and kids to become lazy, he is protecting his family from crimes to come. I think the guy is sane enough to learn how dangerous this world is that families turn each other like a bunch of animals because of money.
With criminals looking for prey, $30M is a huge motivation to find this guy. The criminals may even kidnap the guy beside him just to find out the identity of the man in the yellow costume. He could have just worn something like a mask though.
He has his own reasons. It is possible that he is just hiding his prize from his family to avoid them slacking off and being comfortable with life or he has other plans which is why he decided not to tell them. At the end of the day, he is the one who won the jackpot and he has the rights of doing anything to his rewards.
What troubles me is that, what if something happened to that man? Not hoping but just being realistic. Given that he did not mention it to his family, will his family be notified? If yes, then that would be promising on his family's end, but conflict may arise if not.

Maybe he could put it in his savings account or open another account to a different bank without letting his family know. Not to judge but I guess, he's not a high profile individual so we could assume his family as well. There are chances that his wife is not knowledgeable with banking procedures which gave him the idea to keep it a secret.What troubles me is that, what if something happened to that man?

I think it's reasonable to do so as he doesn't want his kids to be like other sons of Chinese tycoons driving around thier Ferraris and Lambos partying all night.
Money like that can make a person go crazy like they're above the law. We've seen rich people just laying around sunbathing on thier yacht and bribing officials. Maybe he doesn't want his kids and wife to be like them. And also he protects his identity also, anyone can just visit his house if his identity is revealed.

I'm actually more curious whether there is an obligation for lottery winners to be documented when giving prizes? If not, then my guess is just for fun.
As for why he hid his winnings from his family, it could be that he had evil intentions with the money he got, meaning to enjoy it for himself, it is better to educate the family to be able to use money properly than to hide it just because of fear of his wife and children being lazy, hopefully not something bad happened to him because it could be that neither he nor his family ended up enjoying anything because of stupid reasons like that

What? if the casino is fine for the lucky gambler can wear a yellow costume, why you must force him to not wear a yellow costume then? This man is clever, he only need to spend some money to buy the yellow costume rather than educate his children and his wife many times. Why he need to wasting his time to educate his wife and children if he have a way to avoid it?Now answer me, are you want to work from 7AM to 7PM and got paid for $5 or you're only work from 7AM to 12AM and got paid for $10? I believe no one will pick the first choice.
