  Someone won 4.5 millions in Michigan few days ago. Someone got the ticket in Sterling Heights, Michigan. That like 20 mins from my house.

  The lady brought the ticket. It was something 45 it called. It was on macomb daily website. I wish it was me who won. I like hearing about people hitting it big in Michigan. Did anyone hear about this lady winning 4.5 millions jackpot and got the ticket in Sterling Heights?

  It didn't make the national news, sounds more like a local story.

  What's the cash option?

   

  I'm guessing that they'll get just under $2million after taxes.

  That wasn't even the biggest Michigan Lotto 47 jackpot won this year. A few months ago, it was well over $5 million.

  Less.  $2.9 lump sum.  So about $1.75 after taxes unless she finds a lot of loopholes.
