With the Powerball lottery reaching a record amount, many have begun to think about what they may do with the money if they win. Of course, some are just worried about others finding out about their sudden riches. That’s exactly what one man in China recently went through, as he decided to wear a costume to pick up his winning so his family wouldn’t find out about the money.

Someone in China recently purchased 40 lottery tickets, all with the same numbers. Each ticket ended up winning 765K each, adding up to $30.6 million. However, when the person went to pick up the prize, he showed up wearing a full body costume, hiding his identity.

According to Bro Bible, booked a hotel room in the city and stayed there for three nights before claiming his prize so no one would know where he was going. “I have not told my wife or children. I am concerned that they might feel superior to other people and will not work or study hard in future,” said the man who has only been identified as Li. Maybe his tactic will inspire whoever wins the Powerball.
