Lottery ticket sold in Illinois wins $560 million Mega Millions jackpotReply
or the lump-sum estimated cash value of $264 million Based on reported sales that seems unlikely to be an accurate estimate. The first worksheet on the TX lottery website reported sales of $43 million and a cash value increase of $17.6 million to $258.4 million. The next worksheet forecast sales about 7% higher, which would fund an increase of $18.8 million, to $259.6. The website that can't be named reports sales of $46.44 million which would make it $259.8 million. This was yet another ja

California Lottery announces group as winners of historic $1.765 billion Powerball jackpotReply
Funny that whether a ticket was a QP or not is sensitive information. They're treating it as sensitive information. I can't even begin to fathom how it could possibly be sensitive information. It could be a group of two people My wife and I are a group of two people. I suspect that's pretty common among married couples. Was it the cash value of the day of the drawing or the cash value of the day it (ticket) was cashed in? Here's a fun, and wildly surprising, fact: the cash

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
Here's the odds table for the new $50 500X (game #1555). Prize odds compared to the original 500X game are close, with some $ slightly better, and others worse...but $50K appears a bit better, although it's only a sliver of the game total. Slightly higher overall % payout over the original 500X results in a lower win odds on this new game, down to 1/4.2, vs the existing $50 odds of 1/.4.5 Note: There are LOTS more 500X wins in this version compared to the original, as the relatively o

$910 MILLION: Mega Millions lottery jackpot making another historic runReply
I guess at this rate one would need three or four different financial advisors. The first one is going to advice you. The second one is going to verify the advice of the first one. The third will verify the advice of the first and second. And so on and so on Should I happen to win any major jackpot, I will go with the lump sum, give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and enjoy the left overs. The only major financial advise to lower your tax bill that I see is always to ta

This question might have been answered
So, lets say someone on here hits, lets say I hit not the jackpot, I hit only 5 numbers on megamillions. Yes keep laughing. I see that most people will take the cash vs annuity unless they want to hide something. it depends. I know what usamega says, might have to look. I might have to ask another accountant I know or someone else. What is the remainder after taxes from that state are taken out? So the payment amt is $1 million. ( multiplier 2 3 4 5) i'm not ta

Maddogs POWERBALL Challenge 11/15Reply
Wow! My new white ball predictor got another 2W out of 5 prediction. Two 2W hits out of two draw tests. 0.14% chance of that happening by uniform random selection chance. The predictor is actually five separate one white ball predictors, and the same one white ball predictor got a hit two draws in a row. This is just an interum predictor since I haven't completed the parameter search. so the overall 5 white ball predictor could improve. Very encouraged by this class of predictor. It's been a

I will change the way I buy Cash4life tickets.Reply
First and foremost congratulations on the thought that one could hit second tier prize on two consecutive days. Not that it can't happen, but good Lord that would be awesome luck. Having said that, I don't know if they can pay a multi draw win on the same ticket as different options. Maybe it's possible. However what I would do is play the 3 sets of multi draws (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) on 3 separate tickets. Example . Ticket 1 - 1-2-3-4-5 (6) - multi draw Friday, Saturday an

$1.76 billion Powerball jackpot won by one ticket sold in CaliforniaReply
I see that many of us share similar strategies regarding the amt of tickets we purchase as it pertains to MM and PB. We buy our tickets ( 1 w/ pp or mp ) per every 100 mil based on the annuity but, that gets expensive and even embarrassing when the jackpot gets over say 500 mil I try to convince my fellow partners in crime ie family, to no avail, that we should base it on the cash value instead. If we only knew how much $$$ we've spent on that elusive jackpot dream we could have fin
