I wouldn't want to miss out on 6 months worth of interest. The lottery doesn't pay you the interest on it till you claim, do they

Thank you all for your comments.

SaraAnnRapp,

I don't think there is a benefit - it just runs you closer to the deadline, where, if you're like me, you may forget to check

I think I could be patient while I got my ducks in a row but I wouldn't wait until nearly six months has passed to cash in the ticket. I'm not sure what the benefit would be of waiting that long.

Some guy in my state awhile ago waited until the last few days to turn up - despite knowing he had the winning ticket since day 1

I would have no such resolve

It hasn't even been a week and I wouldn't be surprised if they just waited out the full 6 months.

Or like one story I read once - dude had his winning ticket in the laundry and didn't find it for awhile

Well, he/she just won it on Saturday, but a $28 million prize would make some folks anxious

(ya think?).

Well, California Lotto would like to see him/her.

They're probably doing the right thing and consulting a Lawyer, or someone.
