Welcome to the Lottery Post

and that is why I will take lump sum cash when I win.

The only good thing about taking the annuity would be if you blew through all of the money you got from the first check....you get another check the following year, for 29 years.

Tonight we chase after a sizable Powerball Jackpot.

It's not record breaking, but it would be life changing

The real story here is the small interest rates are killing the Jackpot.

(Not really thru the cash prize is the actual Jackpot after all.)

in 2013 a 347.6 million cash Jackpot amount ended up as a 636 million annuity.

Now our 357.7 million cash Jackpot amount is giving us a 508 million annuity.

That's how strongly the government interest rates affect the annuity amount. The annuity is what brings in masses.

The irony being the masses would all be told by their financial ex... [ More ]

Good morning to the LP community.

This MM JP is already a truly big one. The cash option (which I would consider the figure that matters most) at 357 M is the second biggest in MM hhistory. And if won by a single ticketholder, only G. Mackenzie's PB (370.9 M cash) win would be ahead overall. Given that the JP has now surpassed the half billion Mark I could well imagine that the final tally for cash will be more than the now advertised 357 M(agnum :-). Gold luck everyone

Soviet — Wed, 06 Jul 2016 04:49:10 GMT

As I thought, no one won. Jackpot's up to $508 million. NICE! Best of luck for Friday's drawing!

I actually didn't buy any tonight because I had a funny feeling this would happen, so all the money I had for tonight is now going to Friday's drawing in addition to any money I'll have saved up for that day. YAY! Good luck, everybuddy

At least $1 mil sounds good to me lulu

Pretty sure most wouldn't complain about $1 mil, but having that 1 more number sure wouldn't hurt

lulu1feather — Wed, 06 Jul 2016 00:04:22 GMT

I think I have more tickets than I have ever had for a single drawing. I have 7 little lines of hopes and dreams!

Good luck everyone!

Let's all win $1,000,000 at least

Mr. JJ The Prince,

Please don't say that. Somebody needs to win the doggone thing, this time.

I don't think I can handle another non-winner, this time.

OK?

PSA. Reason #5 to recycle. Because if you accidentally throw out a lottery ticket, it will still be in your bin (and coffee grounds/peach pits/chicken juice free) when the news comes out that a big winner was sold in your town.

The Robinsons learned the hard way. They are a wholesome family so I believe they will remain private from now on to the best of their ability. No Jack Whitaker there.

I was thinking about the Chino Hills winner and that is a rich neighborhood so they can afford to wait.

If I win tonight then I can expect to collect $192,680,000.00 after all taxes and the deduction are taken out. Here in California, I will wait six to eight weeks to get the check.

I bought 3 picks at different locations may get another one tonight if I happen to make an errand. Those tickets will sit inside the side pocket on my purse so no chance of misplacing/losing them.

Good luck to you tonight.

DELotteryPlyr — Tue, 05 Jul 2016 22:06:46 GMT

I wanna go the Robinson's way - hire a crappy, money grubbing lawyer and hit the talk shows before going to the lottery to cash the ticket!

Wonder if there will EVER be anyone who does it worse then them?

Speaking of them, anyone know anything new since they won

Over the weekend I bought two quick picks. Woke up this morning (in a daze thinking it was Wednesday) and checked the MM numbers on the lottery website. I didn't match any numbers so I threw the tickets in the trash. An hour later I realized the drawing is tonight! LOL...Good thing I didn't tear them up. Just a little crumpled. Sad but true.

Mr. Wander73,

I certainly hope so too, and hope for a single jp winner (3 jp winners, at the most).

For 2nd place, I'd hope for a million such winners, to include every regular and Admin, here on LP,

but my 'real guess' will be 20+ 2nd place winners.

But, the main thing is for someone to win the jp, and stop the thing from rolling over.

I'm going now, to get some extra numbers for tonight's game.

Expect anything to happen.

$454 million jackpot driving Mega Million ticket sales

Lottery Post — Tue, 05 Jul 2016 19:18:46 GMT

By Todd Northrop

With strong sales around the country, the estimated jackpot for Tuesday night's Mega Millions drawing has been raised to $454 million, with a lump-sum cash option of $319 million cash.

It's the third largest jackpot in Mega Millions history and the seventh-largest jackpot ever seen in US lottery history.

The jackpot has been growing since it was last won on March 8 by Michael Burkett in Washington, who received a $157 million prize.

The only other jackpot won this ye... [ More ]
