  • AFAICT you cannot do that. I recall someone trying to do that to give a bunch of money charitably, the lottery refused.

    If people could do that it would change taxation and hinder the State/Government’s ability to get those taxes. Or doing things like giving all the money to your brother’s charity or something and avoiding taxes. Obviously they are very much against that.

    …and:

    • Enshittify things

    • Cut benefits

    • Raise benefit costs

    • Unbundle things to charge you more

    • Add “convenient” fees

    • Subscriptions for everything, even your car’s built in features

    • Make you work longer, off the clock, at home, on weekends, with fewer staff to do the job

    • Pressure you into not taking time off

    • Understaffing, perpetually

    • Replace humans with AI

    • Hope you die quick when you lose your job because you got a debilitating illness and no longer have the insurance you spent years or decades paying into

    • Donate billions to politicians that will slash corporate and rich people taxes, and cut government services, so that everything from public education to your wait times at the DMV gets worse

    • buy all the homes to make them unaffordable, forcing you to rent, then jacking up rent to keep you from getting ahead
