Nine workers whose factory is closing win lottery

I like to hear stories like this-Glad they won!
Good for you guys! Hope no other workers decide to sue you.
I've been buying $1,500-$2,000 worth of tickets yearly for about 10 years, I guess I'm going have to spend more if I expect to do as well as these guys. I came close once, I matched 5of6 for $1,500 playing the SuperLottoPlus game before Ohio got rid of it.
Good for them. It nice that they won something since they would all soon be out of jobs.
Congrats to the workers who won.-weshar75
was losingjeff in that group?

Losingjeff, if I remember correctly, spent thousands going after a $50 box hit in the pick3 game.
yeah bless heart.i tried giving him advice to help him win but he had has sights set on the pick 3 box and wasn't nothing going to change that.i figured that after spending thousands and thousands of dollars he would give it up.i think he finally did after filing bankruptcy,lol.hard to believe but its true.
man goes broke chasing a fifty dollar box hit and files for bankruptcy
Why is the factory closing? Did they take cash value? I hope they don't have financial problems later in life.
"The winners all decided to take the cash option, worth $3.7 million. Each got an equal share of $370,000 before taxes, except Quinn, who bought two tickets and got $740,000, lottery officials said."
I wish them all a lot of luck. I don't know how they ran the pool and what rules they decided on, but it's a little odd that the person who managed the pool is the only player getting double. Don't most people buy an equal share in a company pool?

With nine members, it was probably easier to have 10 shares to make the math easier or someone dropped out and he bought the extra share to keep the amount spent the same.
Before I retired I was in a 20 man pool and when one dropped out, the guy running the pool bought the extra share for his mother so we would still have 20x$5 to spend as always. Everyone in the pool had a chance to buy it before he did.
