The online lotto ticketsReply

You tell me, which is the better scenario?If you're going to quibble about 1%, that's crazy. You should be more concerned with where they buy the ticket - Delaware - whch has no state tax and allows you to remain anonymous. Your ex

$13.5 million PB Winner is anonymous!!Reply

Which state would have jurisdiction- the state of my domicile or the state from which I bought the ticket? Do you know which states allow you to remain anonymous? I am mostly interested in Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Arizona. Anonymous via Internet.Is it possible to remain anonymous when collecting the money

Twister picks all states next 3 daysReply
Tomatin you are very right it is just math. Do you think I think those digits we choose everyday for our plays are candybars or something. It is when and what you choose at the proper time that makes the difference. Look at the concentration of the hits where they took place. I warned in advance where to be watching. If you were in Delaware, Maryland, Connecticut you could say cha-ching. Others states came in as well. If it is just math what about posting some numbers. I am sure this forum would
