    I'll never understand this thought that ppl need to carry the financial burden of their whole family when they start making a lot of money or hit the lotto. I could see if this was some large extended family that cared and were there for each other, but ain't nobody got time for some cousin from two states over that I hadn't heard from for years. Ppl don'y owe you something just because they have money and you have a grandparent in common.

  • @PoloJJR
    @PoloJJR 11 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    You have to go to the headquarters to receive your money. Also the lottery company wants to reveal the winner so people know its real which in return forces people to buy more.

    Thats the cool thing about arizona you dont have to reveal your name when you win state lottery

  • @willp9993
    @willp9993 11 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Delaware, Kansas, Maryland, North Dakota, and Ohio are the only states that allow you to remain anonymous, however Additional states may allow a trust to be set up and the lottery winnings received in the name of the trust. Thus, you could remain anonymous :)

    Now, if this chick was smart, she would put it into a bond earning 5%, making her around $3.6 million/a and never have to worry about her family again.

    Doesn't matter, if someone is determined to get that money from either one of them, they'll find a way to get it. This world is full of smart criminals. On the other hand if their relationship is strong, the loot SHOULD make it stronger.

    You cant ask for all the good without any draw backs, and sadly one of the drawbacks is a loss of privacy.

  • @mrthanh2012
    @mrthanh2012 10 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    $52 millions is before tax. Lottery always tells you the amount before tax when you choose lump sum. In 2012,top tax bracket was 35% and she has to pay Georgia tax which was 6%, so its about 30 millions after all the tax. I'm not sure if she has to pay for unearned income medicare contribution tax which is 3.8% or not. If yes, she received a little less than 30 mills

    @serratop Exactly. The only time bad stories come out of lottery wins, it involved people knowing. Keep that type of thing silent.

    I also think, that the safety of the winners is more importent than the promotion for the lottery. In all countries I know lottery, the winners are kept secret, for their safety.

    Sadly... This is family for me. When the call came in everyone was overjoyed not of the prospect of "we" are rich but more so someone we know "family" hit the big one. It has been over a year. We have not heard from "family"... "family" changed their number, "family" has a new address, "family" has forgotten about "family"... My only hope and prayer is that You and your Mom have made your dad comfortable during his illness. Peace be with you.

    she has about $30 million after all the taxes, but yeah, it is still a lot of money. Imagine a expert surgeon whose income around $300k. It takes him 100 years homeless with no food to acquire that amount of money.

    There was a biggest texas lotto in 2001;which was entertained on the local news for a few weeks. the news channels were showing people lined up to buy lottery tickets at gas stations or stores. any time i searched to see any information about that ticket, there was none, not even on the news paper films in libraries, not for that amount of jackpot. i think all the information about that ticket also has been deleted. only once i pulled a website as "biggest texas lotto.com";which was errored.

    Well, if you live in a state that requires you to show up personally to claim publicly, you won't be able to claim. Done.
    Some states allow you to remain anonymous, some states will allow you to set up trusts to claim for you, but there are some states, I believe like Georgia, where you CANNOT do either. You must publicly claim the prize. It isn't against privacy law either. You have a choice not to claim, therefore not be publicized.
    You either claim, or don't.
