Winner rewarded by a retailer's lucky touch By Kate Northrop A Michigan man thought he'd purchase a Super Raffle lottery ticket after seeing a retailer's advertising for the luckiest store in Michigan and ended up winning a $1 million prize. A Michigan resident thought he'd try his luck in the Michigan Lottery's Super Raffle, and what better place to play at than the luckiest spot in the state? The winner, who requested to remain anonymous, had already heard news about tickets go

Secrets of a lottery lawyer-Kurt Panouses interviewReply
Watch the video. Pretty simple to understand. Reading is fundamental. 1. A state only allowed anonymous claiming for $10 million plus wins and the jp was under that amount. 2. A young guy in his 20s decided to take the yearly annuity of 350k. 3. The attorney argued that based on the expected lifespan of this young person, the total annuities would easily exceed $10 million over his expected lifespan. THUS HE WAS ALLOWED TO CLAIM ANONYMOUSLY. A very creative legal argument that worke

Secrets of a lottery lawyer-Kurt Panouses interview
There is a fascinating interview on YouTube with a lottery attorney. He discusses how Michigan had tried to delay allowing his client to claim and the Michigan lottery claimed they were not ready . After 3 weeks he told the lottery he was showing up the next day at 10 AM and if the lottery office was not ready, he was calling a press conference. The state lottery backed down. For another client in another state, the lottery officials claimed the client did not win $10 million to qualify for

Merry ChristmasReply
Happy Christmas fellow posters! Arkansas? Well it ain't California !!; Now I'll abstain from pb till it reaches 250 and mm until jackpot doubles in size. Hmmmm I wonder if the winner is an oliveloaf or liverwurst sandwich lover? Well if he or she or they are smart (and remain anonymous) we'll never know the answer that enquiring minds want to know. Have a shaggy day ShagE3

No winner again: Powerball jackpot hits $1.6 billion in longest-ever rollover runReply
Hmmmmmm Would it be too suspicious if I came back here tomorrow under a new name ..... A. Nonymus? I guess if A. Nonymus started talking/writing about oliveloaf and liverwurst it might give away my secret identity. Ciao Have an anonymous day! ShagE3

Good omen? Bird collision preceded NJ lottery winner's $90 million Mega Millions jackpotReply
They handed the clerk their ticket to check it, and the cashier waited for the crowd inside the store to disperse before showing the lucky customer the prize notice. People rant and rave about wanting to be anonymous. Then someone walks into a crowded store, hands over their ticket to the cashier to check their numbers - the same numbers that are all over the news, online, basically everywhere. Oh well, oh well, nothing left to say. Congratulations

South Dakota trust claims $78 million Lotto Texas jackpot days before it expiresReply
i think the secrecy is to deter scammers. there are just too many out there these days. Scammers are one reason to (try to) remain anonymous. People you already know are often another good reason. People who think your net worth is fairly typical tend not to pester you for large handouts, but a lot of us have a relative or acquaintance who would want a piece of the pie if they knew it was a multi-million dollar pie. Keeping the wealth secret tends to be a lot harder than just claiming anony

Something is rotten in the state of Michigan
As I do every morning I read the news on the Michigan website. Today they have a picture of a winning Fantasy 5 ticket. At the top of the ticket it says it was printed at 2:30:06 and underneath the EZ match section it says 4:30:06 Also all the EZ Match prizes are $4! The Michigan Fantasy 5 is an RNG game. Can anyone explain what happened here? https://i0.wp.com/milotteryconnect.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/05.05.26-Fantasy-5-DP-05.15.25-Draw-110000-Anonymous-Oakland

State income tax applies to the state in which you live at the time you gain constructive receipt or the economic benefit of the money. Unless the ticket is from a state you don't live in, in which case that state gets their income tax before your home state gets a crack at it. what is the advantage of hiring someone advertising themselves as a lottery lawyer over someone [else] There's a lawyer in MA who has represented a number of winners, and (at least according to the reporting I sa

Arkansas lottery winner of $250.8 million Powerball jackpot claims prizeReply
P.U.!!! What Stinx????? Speaking of Ark P.B. jackpot winner and liverwurst sandwiches my state megabucks game was 14.7 mil / 10 mil cash for tonite ..... no winner but here's the interesting thing ..... Monday nights jackpot is 14.75 mil / 9.99 mil cash .... Of course these were all projections but why the reduction of the cash amount from Saturday to Monday when the annuity had been raised? I think the answer is partly due to the amount of 2nd prize winners on Saturday night ..... t
