Tax evasion? What does that have to do with claiming the lottery? In case you haven't figured it out, they have zero to do with each other. Z-E-R-O! The IRS is NOT a subset of any state Lottery. My state, New Jersey, has an obligation to withhold 25% (if you have a SSAN) - then they fade into the background when it comes to taxes. No state tax on NJ lotto winnings. In almost every state, it takes weeks to get the money transferred to you, after you step forward. Why wait months to claim the... [ More ]

That money is small potatoes compared to a long prison sentence over tax evation if you don't take the time to set up trusts, etc before picking the ticket up. When it comes to large sums of money it's better to try to have a cool head and take the time to do things right.

They don't use pounds for a weight measurement in the UK. They use metric or stone but if a person has gain a couple of stones in weight they have a serious problem.

According to figures from posh bankers Coutts Co, they'll be earning around 12,300 a day in interest alone that's 86,300 per week.That equates to: $21,812 USD a day and $153,035 USD a week, With money like that at stake, why do people spend months (and according to atleast one thread, years) screwing around figuring out how to divide it? Why not get it, and then make money, while trying to figure out how to divy it up? You wait a month, and you have (potentually) lost, FOREVER, 384 tho... [ More ]

Euromillions has now rolled over for the 11th time. The estimated jackpot for Friday 3rd Feb. is 125,000,000 ($220,000,000). It is certain to reach 130,000,000 ($230,000,000) due to phenomenal sales. Euromillions only allows a maximum of 12 consecutive unwon jackpotsto be rolled over to the next draw so if nobody hits the jackpot on Fri. 10th Feb. the money will be distributed among the winners of the 5 + 1 Star tier. 13 people matched 5 + 1 today winning 450,148.03 (about $795,000).If 1...

Well it must be hit by the 10th or it will be rolled down to the 2nd level prizes if no one wins on the 10th. According to the UK National Lottery page it should roll to a 12th drawing once every 25 years which I find hard to believe. This is also the last jackpot roll that will be able to go a little higher to a 13th roll although who knows how likely that is. I doubt it will roll today.

Britons may not be the only ones that are excited at, and eager to buy the tickets for, the 100M pound Euro Millions jackpot. I guess EM fever has already been spread all over the Europe and possibly among serious jackpot game players all over the world.To me, this drawing and after, until hit by someone, would be a MUST regardless of the number of tickets, since I think this high EM jackpot might never be available again in my lilfetime.

dvdiva — Fri, 27 Jan 2006 08:50:51 GMT

As far as do I trust them, then yes. But it's probably to late to get tickets. My guess though is that they purchase the tickets from the uk national website - that way there is no physical ticket to lose.
