More update on the $208 million PB jp winners here according to the local news.

Looks like it was just an office pool and anyone could chip in a buck. About 100 of the workers did. Those that decide to choose the annuity will get a after-tax check yearly of about $69,000 each for 30 years.. Those that choose the lump sum will get an after-tax check of about $554,000 once.

No wonder none of them said they will quit their jobs ! LOL ! $554,000 isn't enough to really retire on unless you ar... [ More ]

That sounds awfully high, Coin Toss. What was the cash value? I was estimating a net of closer to $650,000.

Anyway, I agree with your wife. She always has some wise things to say. We'd probably get along well.

Late news on Monday 8-7-06 said they'l get about $750,000 each after taxes.

My wife says that'll probably bring some grief for them because all too soon people that they kbnow won't remember how much each one got, they'll just know they hit that $208 million jackpot

It was 100 employees in a pool from the Sargento cheese plant. It isn't reported as to how much they each chipped in to the pool, but one of their tickets caught the winner. So that's just under 21 million apiece I think.

They report that all members of the pool have already said that none of them intend on quitting their jobs at the cheese plant. The manager there said that even today, no one called in sick or missed work among the group.

Oshkosh isn't in Fond du Lac county but you are correct the Miracle Mile is. The ticket was sold at a gas station on the Miracle Mile that has a reputation for selling winning tickets. A Badger 5 winining ticket was just sold there a couple of weeks ago and it has had a number of major wins in the past years.
