this winning actually only $15 Millions in cash opion after tax right?

I want to have a nice home with 4 rooms in Redwood City, driving an Audi A6.

I only won $2 in this draw. Still it's 100% on return from the investment of $1.

WOW!   WTG!  $31 million is a life changer!  From rags to riches!  Smart lady too.

Hopefully they won't go from riches to rags like a few others.

It's good to see California is sensible in allowing lottery winners to be anonymous.  California is usually ahead of the curve with law making.

Congrats to the winners! I wonder if the winner could have been our own lottocalgal. Wink

Hey TSC,

I'm still here.

Didnt win that $31 million but waiting for my "Shot at the Pot". San Diego and LA counties always win.  I guess its because  the population for those counties are huge and more tickets are purchased.  I  think the next time I visit LA county, I will purchase about 3 weeks worth of quick picks or whatever the limit is.

But Im still here, with my tickets, my lucky gemstones and a dream.

Smart people, but hopefully they're also smart on the financial side and not buying something like a two million dollar RV, heh. Can you imagine what the insurance on that thing has to be? Skeptical

With odds like 1 in 175,711,536 how can I lose?!

You can't predict random.

Crazy 

it amazes me at times how many ways one can blow a million dollars in one shot

remember to never let a day pass without scaring the bleep out of someone for the soul grins of it

" Featherlite Luxury Coaches of Florida touted its $2.5 million RV, with marble steps, original art and SubZero refrigerator, as the world's most expensive in 2006. "

 

Puts a whole new meaning to the term "trailer trash." Big Grin

An RV...especially one of that magnitude is in no way shape or form comparable to "trailer trash." sheesh!
