But the majority here want anonymity that looking for the winner on a store security tape might prevent. I know what you're saying, but shouldn't the person buying a ticket be responsible for checking and cashing it

This is a news story I don't want to read!

But maybe Crawford Shaw will show up an hour before the ticket expires and claim the winning for the Hexam Investments Trust.

.. Which is one of the reasons l picked the nonchalant portrayal of BD lighting a cigarette. What l found startling is that according to the Texas lottery, players have left a Billion dollars on the table and simply walked away. That's a Billion, with a B. It's mindblowing to say the least.

I don't understand the lackluster attitude of some lottery players. I anxiously await each nights drawing results to see if I won when playing. I seldom watch a live drawing, but check the lottery website later that night.

Personally, I think it's not the state's responsibility to find winners. They are publicizing the fact the ticket is expiring.

If someone takes the time and money to buy a ticket, it's that person's fault for not bothering to check it. And if they can't be bothered to check their ticket, they don't deserve the money.

Why will the lotteries always take people thru every hoop much as possible to keep from paying us, but will do nothing to help finding the one's that haven't claimed their tickets? If they want to be looked upon in a good and honest light they should start finding the one's that have trouble keeping up with their tickets. Yet maybe there are 1 or 2 that doesn't want to be found? If they did go out of their way to find the unclaimed tickets i do think that that would be the best publicity a state... [ More ]

Betty Davis eyes! Smoke gets in your eyes .

$1,000,000.00 less 37% = $630,000.00 TX does not tax winnings from the Lotto. That is still a wonderful amount of cash. $52,500.00 per month for the first and only year.

Or $31,500.00 per year for 20 years. It definitely would help with retirement funding.

Some lessons about ticket security and handling are never learned.

It's a shame to see a prize of this amount go unclaimed.
