Florida LLC revealed to have claimed $1.6 billion Mega Millions lottery jackpotReply
Hi everyone! A little late to the conversation here, but I wanted to clarify the wording based in Miami in the article. The jackpot winner records initially released to the public by the Florida Lottery had Miami, Florida as the city associated with the claimant, Saltines Holdings, LLC, but it did not clarify whether that meant the LLC was incorporated in Miami. We have seen other outlets piece together some information and say that the LLC was incorporated in Delaware, as well as the possibilit

$2B Powerball winner Edwin Castro bought $4M mansion for parents while brother manages his wealthReply
Jack, I will have to respectfully have to disagree with you on this one. He obviously has a good heart to purchase this expensive home for his parents. He has his brother involved with finances(something I would never do) His alleged donations to local charities signals his willingness to give and help, as the article states.....Perhaps the young man has started a private company that gives to the needy. Maybe he has already donated to the Make A wish Foundation, Shriners Hospital for Children,

Hoosier Lottery Commission votes to approve $50,000 prize claim to winner whose ticket was ripped upReply
The article clearly states, In a meeting that took place in Indianapolis on Tuesday, Lottery commissioners discussed Paul Marshall and his winning $50,000 Powerball ticket. The catch was that he stepped forward to claim the prize, but his ticket was in pieces .

Scotland's £148M EuroMillions lottery winner no longer speaking to family after giving them £20MReply
Be interested to see Todd Kate's response to NY Times article that Iowa post wrong Powerball results---human error. Suspicious to me that some folks were able to 'cash in' amounts up $200 on the wrong #'s in the wee hours of the morning. That doesn't sit well with me. If they were posted incorrectly then someone entered the wrong #'s in the system. There should be electronic safeguards. Give me a break, folks cashing in the wee hours of the morning. Here the system for on-line goes off-line from

Massachusetts woman accidentally receives $20,000 worth of lottery tickets in the mailReply
point of article not activated not worth the paper they're printed on. She did the right thing. Watching folks load the self service lotto machine noticed they don't activate the pack(s); perhaps the machine does when purchased. Just like buying them from the clerk here, they activate them POS.

California man asks clerk to choose a lottery game for him, ends up picking out a ticket worth $10MReply
I would return the the store and give the clerk 5 thousand dollars. All to often we hear about things happening like this and the clerk never gets any monetary appreciation. I did read one article a few years ago, where an elderly woman always went to the same store to buy lottery tickets. The clerk was always so nice to her so she told the clerk if she ever wins any money on her scratch off tickets she would give the clerk half of the money. Sure enough the lady won $2 on a scratch off and retu

Arkansas woman almost gifts winning lottery ticket to ex-father-in-lawReply
Where in the article does it mention any children. My view is her ex-Father-in law and her get along very well. No mention of the ex husband. Reading between the lines it seems like he a work of art, but who knows?

California man reinvests $500 lottery win into scratch-off book, scoops up $1 million prizeReply
Lucky guy and if I comprehended the article correctly he still came out about $290 ahead after buying thirty $10 tickets. Nice no state tax on winnings either.

One ticket sold in California wins $1.08 billion Powerball jackpotReply
Very very very fishy that California listed 8 times on the article as huge jackpot winners and that doesn't even include the one's under $400 million that listed on MM and PB websites over last 10 years only state comes in second is Florida with 2 and New Jersey By the way don't give me that dumb crap about more people in that state so more people play because I can give you at least 12 states of 44 that that's included that has not even won yet.
