$36 million Mega Millions ticket sold in Florida goes unclaimedReply
This was the only unclaimed Mega Millions jackpot ticket in 2023 Only one? With just 6 jackpots in 2023 what are the odds that only 16.67% of them would go unclaimed? Using that math formula, 80% of $36 million is $28.8 million (which goes to education), and 20% is $7.2 million (going back to future prizes). Using a better formula 80% is $13.92 million because they're probably not going to put that money in to a 29 year annuity.

Michigan man drove around with $2 million winning lottery ticket for 4 months without realizing itReply
This story sounds very familiar to me... That's because a few years ago a guy from Long Island NY got stuck in a Memorial Day traffic jam on I-95 in Connecticut. So he pulled into a rest stop to get gas. While he was at the gas pump he saw a sign for The Connecticut Millionaire Raffle drawing set to be drawn on July 4th. Tickets cost twenty bucks and the odds were 125,000 to 1 so he bought a ticket and stashed it in his wallet. Then the July 4th drawing came and went, but nobody came forward

$1.725 BILLION: Powerball jackpot now 2nd-largest of all timeReply
Another Extremely high lottery built up by small states to only be won by one of the large states. WHO SAW THAT ONE COMING? Question is are you tired of funding Champagne wishes and caviar dreams for people in California, Florida, NY or Texas? You could keep putting money in the retirement coffers of big state citizens by playing the Big State Powerball or the Big State Mega Millions games with unattainable odds OR you could start saving and investing that money which overtime will yield more th

$1.725 BILLION: Powerball jackpot now 2nd-largest of all timeReply
Very interesting article about Powerball on cnn website today. Forgot all about Lotto America's rules, the interesting part was capped off @ $80 million. Ticket was $1 and no Powerball to deal with and much, much better odds. Thinking about the cap off, if nobody won then it stayed the same???? After being stationed @ Walter Reed in DC and stationed up the road @ Ft. Meade, MD, my old civilian supervisor would mail me Lotto America tickets and one time just before leaving for Germany won $14
