A 134k prize is hardly enough to be doling out much cash to your family members outside of your immediate family which would consist of who exactly. OK, you could maybe buy your kids something certainly not over 500.00 (phones do not cost that much do they) Most would say we are putting it away for your college education which would cover about 2 semesters these days.

I thought the same thing lol. If she gave it all to charity it would be a better story. Anyone who won a prize like that would give some of it to their family.

She's a good-hearted woman.

She needs a good-timin' man.

See how deceptive this story is, Woman gives away entire lottery prize . First thing that comes to mind is did she give it to a soup kitchen or some charity?. Fact is she gave it to her family. Not the connetation that was initially written. Giving away entire prize to your family, is the same as keeping it.

Sounds like she may be that Billion dollar Jackpot winner awhile back in the Carolinas..bought all the rolls of scratchoffs left till she scratched a winner..

Nobody gives away $200,000. unless they're ALREADY filthy rich..

It is the oldest deek in the world for a lottery winner. It eliminates people continually hounding her for a share outside of family but she is only getting 134k in cash as it is. No need to even announce this win as no one would have bothered her.

I think this year gifts up to $16,000 are tax-free.

Old habit that I have---reading into things. Since she stayed anonymous sounds like she cashed it in and then gave out the money??? Not sure about the gift tax on this one.

Lottery winner wants to put a smile on someone else's face

By Kate Northrop

A generous lottery winner is giving away every cent of her lottery prize from a South Carolina Lottery instant game.

An anonymous South Carolina woman is not spending a single dime on herself after winning a $200,000 prize from a scratch-off.

I don't want anything for me, she told the Lottery.

The selfless woman stepped foot in the Cannon Bridge convenience store on Cannon Bridge Road in Orangeburg... [ More ]
