New Michigan lottery player wins $500,000 on his first-ever ticketReply
June coddled the Beaver but he never really seemed to warm up to her all that much. I always felt he had a mild form of autism the way he acted. Locking himself in the bathroom was a telltale sign of being disturbed for one. Beaver won a sports car and Ward sold it to pay for his college education and Beaver was not pleased about it. He let some kid steal his new bicycle which also indicated psychological issues with that kid.

$1.08 billion Powerball lottery winner Yanira Alvarez filed claim for jackpot over five months agoReply
I thought a lottery ticket is a bearer's instrument (it is written so on the back of many tickets). Some basic vetting is appropriate (i.e., where when did you buy this ticket?), but police interviews, checking the store's video feed, waiting months to award you the money, etc.) is way over-the-top. It seems like nowadays they (the state lotteries) can potentially come up with any reason for refusing to give you the money you won, and I think that's way too much power for them when in fact WE (l

Lottery Hanky PankyReply
Anytime computers and networking is involved, there's always room for hanky panky. As an IT admin, with enterprise rights, anything can be done and all these lotteries are networked. The speed at which things are calculated should have no room for error, unless it's 'human error' which means manipulation/tampering. Code it, program it, run it, check for errors, if all is proper, leave it alone. But when jackpots get this big, and supposedly the lottery proceeds are meant for education(either a l

Kentucky woman quits job after winning $90,000 in the lotteryReply
I did not say she didn't. I have a business degree but I wasn't where I wanted to be so I took a few classes at a community college and ended up in a better job. A little extra education can help in many cases. Whatever she does, I wish her well.
