Oh, I'd so take the money. Without a doubt in my mind. I'm not concerned with anyone else's financial problems...i find that ticket and that money is rightfully mine.


Jus' sayin'

What do you do with $81 million dollars? (you know - 50% for taxes) I think I'd turn my house into a castle, Viva La Bam styles. and then swim in the money for life.

we could all learn a thing or two from Bam Margera

Leave it to a woman to lose this lottery ticket.
It's not surprising.
But tell me this ..
If you were on the jury of her husband accused of spousal abuse after this..could you convict him with a clear conscience?

According to the story I heard on this the Lottery officials said the person that comes to them with the ticket is the owner of the ticket regardless of how many police reports this woman may file. This will end up in litigation regardless. The few times I've bought these mega millions tickets that have huge jackpots I've treated the fucking ticket like it was worth hundreds of millions of dollars until they have the drawing and it turns out it's just a worthless piece of paper. I say sucks to be her, if I find it I'll cash it in. If she sues me I will use my millions to buy a high priced attorney.

Rule of thumb if you got butterfingers send someone else to get your fucking ticket. Or don't play at all.

Yeah, it's basically, finders keepers.

162 million. Cut that in half for a lump sum payment = 81 million. Now take about 50% in taxes = 42 million is about what you get. Maybe a little more. A friend of mine won 7 mill in the NYS Lotto. He wound up with 2.2 mill after lump sum payment and taxes.

What if, after a year, no one claims the prize money. What happens to it? Does it go back into the pot, or does the system just keep it?

[Hoon]

Good question...
So, this Tuesday when they draw again...is that money still up grabs?
Or let's say a year from now it becomes void and at that time the lottery gets up to 160 Mill again...
Do they add it back in then making the jackpot 320 Million?

Goes back into the system the ticket is void if it's not turned in in time.

*aka it doesn't get added to the pot again.

[Hoon]

It never gets added back in? Who gets the money?
The education system? The United Negro College Fund?
Oh this is a disaster! Damn that woman.
