I think what the other poster meant was New Jersey is free to tax you as high as they want! And they do

No, 10.8% the highest in the country.

I do believe the Motor City or just Michigan in general will be the next big MM and or PB winning state.

NC state make so much en revenue,

4 years is way too long,I hope your going to win next time.

Save your money to play in a winning state.

Comment #50

haymaker — Sat, 14 Jun 2014 16:41:28 GMT

I don't want to rain on your parade, but Chris is gunna want 10.8% also.

Just the same I agree and would gladly settle for that net,

or even the 7 mils. net from the state's pic6 game.

Mega millions and Powerball starting jackpots are too low relative to the odds of winning. Lottery players are not stupid, they are not playing like they used to because of it.

Comment #48

THRIFTY — Sat, 14 Jun 2014 12:58:09 GMT

Mega millions and Powerball small prizes are too hard to win. Small wins keep you in the game. They need to change the matrices again. I would quit playing any lottery game, where I can't win small prizes to keep me playing. The starting jackpot levels are not doing any good, it takes forever to reach $200 million.

Saylorgirl — Sat, 14 Jun 2014 11:28:59 GMT

I agree when they both get hit it is a bummer! Darn! Congratulations to the lucky ones

I got my tickets for tonight's Powerball drawing. I'll gladly settle for the base $40 million annuity or $14.1 million cash after 39.6% federal taxes.

mrcraft — Sat, 14 Jun 2014 05:25:13 GMT

Yup.

Unbelievable. They must be scratching their heads at the lotto head quarters.

Comment #43

Teddi — Sat, 14 Jun 2014 05:02:56 GMT

Mega Millions had a winner tonight too. Both games reset in the same week. What a bummer. It'll be a while before we see big numbers in either game. *sigh

I'm happy with CA SLP. I can still buy a few rental houses with the jackpot. I don't need a huge fortune, but I need a bit of a boost to make me feel good and motivated. I am still young and I still want to do a few things for decent money and happiness.

If you can't live a comfortable life with $10,000,000, I don't know what to tell you.

Comment #38

One-Day — Fri, 13 Jun 2014 19:34:19 GMT

It is not $40,000,000. It's probably around $10,000,000 if we go the quickest route.

You're probably right. Last wednesday was the first time our work pool played in months.

haymaker — Fri, 13 Jun 2014 14:50:39 GMT

Not me !

Spent my PB money on the state pic6 game, JP is 20 mils. that's more than enough for me,

and way better odds, but then I,m in the flats and all the winning tix are sold up there, LOL

Comment #33

rock_nc — Fri, 13 Jun 2014 14:24:20 GMT

I agree, 40 million will suit me just fine! But 4.00 dollars is all I can play with now, gas going up very soon to over 4.00 dollars a gal! With what's going on in IRAQ now. It's going to get bad here real soon

I don't know what's harder. Winning the lotto or a midget trying to bowl a perfect 300.

They had a 61 mil winner earlier this year, other then that it's pretty dry there for wins.

whiteballz — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 23:58:58 GMT

I'm getting tickets for Saturday's Powerball drawing. $40 million sounds good to me.

Comment #25

fellini — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 23:44:36 GMT

I was hoping the jackpot would get to $300 million,but it seems like someone always wins before the jackpot gets too big. Yeah there haven't been any big jackpots lately, kind of disappointing since I only play when the jackpots get really big(over 300 million).

Comment #24

THRIFTY — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 22:29:17 GMT

They need to create a national lottery game with a $100 Million starting jackpot.

People are not too thrill to play the lottery like they used to.

mrcraft — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 22:20:30 GMT

Well, it looks like there will be no jackpot frenzy this summer.

Comment #22

THRIFTY — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 22:16:52 GMT

Mega millions is a RIPOFF. $5,000 for 4 numbers plus the Mega ball with odds of 1 in 739,688.

The LOTTERY is more desperate for money than the players.

People have stopped caring about the lottery altogether.

#@*$#$ %* and the MegaMillions' JP appears to be decreasing not increasing every time I look at it. Taking too long to grow.

Thanks everybody but Knoxville is the Wild Wild West from where I'm at back up in here.

It was probably some New York City Banker who came down to foreclose on some widow's houses or something like that.

That's rdgnr's neck of the woods. Hope the lottery Gods blessed his ticket. It would be nice to finally have someone from LP hit it big.
