I wouldn’t tell anyone about it not even my parents. If a life situation comes up and my loved ones need money for a legit reason then I will sign the check on condition of no questions asked. otherwise its all mine (well what’s left of it after the feds and state take their cut). I don’t care how much you trust your family, friends, spouse, once they get a whiff of that money their latent self-interest and greed will kick in.
Some of these people in the comments live in lah lah land, a life changing amount of money/assets will turn your best friends and closest family into self interested animals happy to rob/use you. No thanks, I’d rather not risk it.
