Mega Vs Power, Something is off..Reply
They don't over-inflate anything. It's an actual calculation based on the best interest rate they can get from a US government security. All of that is in the video. There is no conspiracy to show numbers that are not real. If you win the jackpot, you will get the exact annuity that was advertised. Sometimes even more, if they under-estimated the jackpot, as they often do.

Mega Millions $5 price increase and game changes take effect this weekendReply
The security thing makes sense, but the MUSL rules specifically prohibit a single entity from purchasing all possible combos. Before taxes, the jackpot would have to be over $2.3B before a group could break even. I don't think that's a concern anymore.

Michigan man will help those in need with $2 million Powerball lottery winReply
I'm happy for Ralph. However, I would caution him about helping people in need. While $2 million is a lot of money, if it is not managed well to guarantee long-term financial security, Ralph could be back at square one. This is why it is crazy for some lotteries to still require winners to go public. Such publicity puts enormous pressure on winners,.

D.C. postal worker plans to retire after 30 years with USPS thanks to $1 million lottery prizeReply
I believe an additional 680k would enable most to retire in luxury along with their social security check and other savings they may have had and if they own a house they would feel quite secure. Even if they had to pay taxes on the 680k they would be just fine.

$180 million Powerball winners embroiled in court battle after losing $20M to financial advisorReply
I'm not saying it is a silver bullet. Some winners will reject advice and squander their opportunity for long-term financial security. However, the vast majority of UK lottery winners, remain anonymous and invest their newfound fortune for the long-term.
