Major claim deadline approaching for Illinois lottery winner of $1.337 billion Mega Millions jackpotReply
Single owner bank accounts are only insured for $250.000 so people with millions spread their money in several banks. Cash management accounts with reputable brokers is another option.

Major claim deadline approaching for Illinois lottery winner of $1.337 billion Mega Millions jackpotReply
The Illinois Lottery allows winners to remain anonymous so let's hope this jackpot winner is having a problem deciding cash or payments and the ticket is not lost and goes unclaimed. Just occurred to me maybe the winner hired Crawford Shaw to validate the ticket and Shaw will wait until the 11th hour before heading to lottery headquarters. All kidding aside, the winner might not even know their claiming options have a 60 day deadline. We'll know in a couple of weeks.
