james b | Bank account for a lotto winner? |

Why would you keep it bank accounts? 5% interest is not enough as there are better options.
The FDIC (department that insures bank accounts) will only insure your account up to $200,000, based on that alone, I would spread it between many banks.
But, having said that, the reality is I would go to see an estate planner, tax attorney, CPA and a good attorney before I ever even claimed the money.
Most people do not realize that the majority of lotto winners are completely bankrupt within a few years as they immediately go out and spend, spend spend and give, give give. That 50% tax penalty for giving a gift of more than $22,000 ($11,000 if single) catches up with your money pretty fast. And yes, the GIVER pays the tax, not the receiver.
Personally, I would not keep it in bank "accounts", I would invest in a myriad of different investments and trust accounts, to help avoid the tax man and avoid the continuous call to give to friends and family.
Good luck to us all! |

you have to diversify- and not keep in one place for security/safety issues
USA banks only guarantee for up to $100,000 in a savings account |

Swiss bank account would be the best and the safest. Normal bank accounts only are secure up to 100,000. so it would take hundreds of accounts. |

You would want to diversify over several banks and several different accounts at each bank. With that much money you could hire an accountant to manage it for you and worry about the different accounts. The goal for the accountant would be to invest your money in the right accounts to get you the most interest back on your money every year. Just think $150million at 5% interest is $7.5 million a year in interest payments. 5% is not hard to do.
What I have done for a customer before is open up several accounts - money market, CD, & savings accounts all at $100K a piece, which is the limit per account covered by the FDIC. Then I had another account open for the customer that was a money market checking account. Every month the interest earned from the accounts that held $100K was raked into this other money market account. This account was their spending account. They would use this account to spend their interest earned money.
Good Luck! |
