+Joe Lucas , you got to be kidding. sorry, i don't mean to make light of your comment, but something just does not seem right with these people. however, i do like their dog. he probably is the only honest one in the bunch.
no i don't know them. i am sorry if i offended you. that was not my intention. but i just meant, something does not seem right. i don't know, call it gut instinct, whatever. but from what i understand they claimed their prize in the tennessee lottery office. why then are they wearing the same clothes that they wore on the today show in new york with savannah Guthrie? you would have thought they would have gone home to change. there are just too many differences in their story to be true.
Congrats guys. Seems as though you deserve this. Keep working if you would like. If and when you decide to retire the choice is yours. God Bless you and your family.
Congratulations 🥳👏 to the winners. I have won the lottery. I trust the universe to deliver what I have won. I am grateful for and ready to receive my gift of financial abundance.
You worked all your lives.. it's time to try something different! There's things you don't even KNOW you want to do yet, without going out of your comfort zone. There's always something you wish you had TIME to do!
Andy i received an email from their names as well. Did anything ever come about it being a scam or legit? im sure its too good to be true but would really be a blessing to mu family.
This couple that said they weren't getting a big house changed there mind pretty quick. They purchased a 6.2 million dollar home. A local tax assessor confirmed to FOX13 that the Robinson's bought a 10-bedroom home on a 320-acre lot with a private lake. The property cost them $6.2 million, and it includes rural Tennessee’s finest views, a private home theater and eight bathrooms, according to the property’s listing on Trulia....LMAO..
The problem was that after they came out in this interview people started calling her place of work and harassed her for money. And people kept showing up at their house. Hence the move to a private retreat.
I believe in pre-destiny. What is going to happen to your life in the years to come, is partially your decision, like your career, friends and then being at the right place at the right time, like John Robinson, getting his Powerball tickets. That was John'sfate, he was destined to get that winning ticket.
if YOU WIN....1)keep your mouth SHUT....2)talk to a financial advisor 3)sign the ticket???---listen your adivsor on that one 4)CHANGE your phone #...5)MOVE...when you can.......to another city in another part of the country....6)keep your mouth SHUT.........
These two are just unbelievable they seem like two very very nice people but somebody gotta wake them up and force them to quit and let others in need get those jobs . They is so much to learn and experience that one would need 5 life times to learn a bit of it and they are planing to go back to work what a waste .
327 mill cash the dividend on only 3% a year after tax is over 400k a month without touching a single dollar from the principal plus the actual growth on the dividend paying stocks, government bonds,triple A corporate bonds it can grow to half a million a month within few years if they reinvest the payout... simple people though. they dont think like that
Lottery Jackpots are paid out over 30 years, in almost all cases. The winner is given the OPTION to take the payment as a lump sum within the first 60 days for Powerball and Mega Millions for roughly 47% to 48% of the jackpot amount. The first payment is 1.5% of the jackpot amount and goes up a little over 5% every year for the remaining 29 years. Smaller state lotteries pay a lump sum closer to 55% and the annual amounts are an average of the jackpot amount divided evenly over 30 years. If someone wins the $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 for 5 numbers of Powerball or Mega Millions (depends if the winner pays for Powerplay or Megaplay), there is no money taken out except taxes. That amount is the lump sum already. (More to follow...) If winners would look at lotteries for what they are, the lump sum amount will not appear so unfair or unjustified. There are also more creative ways to take the winnings. (More to follow...) Keep in mind that most states allow to sell lottery annuities to private companies. For example, a winner collects approximately $57,000,000 for 5 years of annuity payments on a $700,000,000 jackpot. The remaining amount is approximately $643,000,000. So, the winner has the option in this example sell the remaining balance of $643,000,000 for approximately $302,000,000 after 5 years. The winner would be collecting an additional $30,000,000 before taxes because they took the annuity payments for 5 years versus taking the full lump sum, initially. The longer a winner waits to sell a lottery annuity, the more they can receive over time. (More to follow...) Lottery jackpot winners can sell a partial amount of their lottery annuity as a safeguard, if they win in a state that allows for lottery annuity sales/purchases. In the example above, the lottery winner could sell half of the remaining amount of $643,000,000 after already collecting $57,000,000 over 5 years. The lottery annuity would still have a remaining balance of roughly $321,500,000 (1/2 of $643,000,000) and they would receive a lump sum payment of approximately $151,000,000 from a private company. The winner has more options and creative flexibility, if they initially take the annual payments. Keep in mind that there are no guarantees of the safety of any amount of money in a brokerage account or bank account, let alone an annuity. (More to follow...) Any American citizen with an income over $578,000 in 2024 will owe 37%. So, the taxed amount for an annual annuity payment or lump sum payment should not be such a surprise. Lottery Jackpots are all paid out as annuities and usually are all paid out over 30 years. That's what they are and winners are given the OPTION for a lump sum. Most lottery jackpot winners take the lump sum but there are other options available which possibly make taking the payments more advantageous. States That Allow Selling Lottery Annuities There are currently 28 states that allow residents to sell their lottery annuities, including: Arizona California Colorado Connecticut Florida Georgia Illinois Iowa Kentucky Louisiana Maryland Massachusetts Michigan Missouri Montana New Hampshire New Jersey New York Ohio Oregon Pennsylvania Tennessee Texas Vermont Virginia Washington West Virginia Wisconsin
@@garystinten9339 I think they meant that there were three different winners for the jackpot this couple in Tennessee, a couple in Florida and an unknown winner in chino hills California.
Not really. Already the chances of winning the Powerball are small, 1 in 292 million. And with every state in the US excluding Alaska, Hawaii, Georgia, Utah and Nevada participating the chances that someone would win were pretty high. There are 292 million combinations of 6 random numbers. What’s unique about this instance is that this was the record amount of players, so it’s likely all 292 million combinations were played or at least enough combinations to trigger a winner.
The fact they are still going to work their day jobs in not admirable, it is just disrespectful. If they're not going to change their working lives, they should give 99 per cent of their earnings to charity!
+headlines , on the surface, i guess we all wish we had won. but there is an old saying that also goes with this situation. it is "be careful what you wish for. " this money, without a doubt, if they indeed won it, is going to make their life pretty difficult to say the least. they will never be the same people to everyone ever again.
What about for people like me? My entire family deserted me years ago, I'm in my 20's and live in the middle of no where. I'd simply chose the 29 year payouts, hire an accountant, financial adviser, then hire a really good lawyer to do all the press and take the large cardboard check and stay anonymous like I am now. It would just be nice to afford to go to a restaurant, pay off my car and maybe travel to feel alive, I want to feel alive.
I feel when speaking about "work" they don't actually realize HOW much money they actually have. She could give to her workplace, expand it, if they do good work, do more good work...philanthropy is a full time job. Anyway, it will come clear one day soon...I hope their privacy is respected, they are sweet...but I hope they build a new house, maybe on the same property, at LEAST lol ;)
Heather Griffin They moved from friend house to friend house with their bodyguard for 3 months until they bought a 6 Million doll mansion in a gated community outside Memphis. Their employees fired them within 5 days of claiming the prize because hundreds of people would go to their workplace asking for money.
Absolutely. If you watch the interview in New York, he clearly says, "I buy four easy picks on ONE ticket." Here he clearly states, "four easy picks on separate tickets". It's hard to keep track of a lie. The people are being duped.
+poster6322 he said 4 quick pick on single tickets in new york. i mean come on, he shows the camera the ticket and it only had one row of numbers. don't over think this you'll miss the point that good things happen to good people.
+Stephen Luke you're point isn't relevant on this thread. Yup, he said that. He also said the complete opposite in THIS video. Make sense? Good. Reality is, some people question things and others don't. Simple. Moving on.
john muldoon The British government takes the taxes out before the rest is distributed to prizes. That's why your jackpots are so tiny compared to ours.
That lawyer smile is more big than the winners lol
I love how humble they are ♡♡♡ They deserve it.
+Joe Lucas , you got to be kidding. sorry, i don't mean to make light of your comment, but something just does not seem right with these people. however, i do like their dog. he probably is the only honest one in the bunch.
I don't know them personally just a comment I made on what I see (which isn't a lot). Maybe you know them and know otherwise.
no i don't know them. i am sorry if i offended you. that was not my intention. but i just meant, something does not seem right. i don't know, call it gut instinct, whatever. but from what i understand they claimed their prize in the tennessee lottery office. why then are they wearing the same clothes that they wore on the today show in new york with savannah Guthrie? you would have thought they would have gone home to change. there are just too many differences in their story to be true.
Ya just know that his lawyer and his accountant increased their hourly rate! lol
love listening to these stories
Happy for them... Thats Awesome!
Happy for them...one day i am going to win i sometimes buy a ticket praying it's going to be a winner !!
I hope they have fun with their winnings. God has truly smiled down upon these people.
Congrats guys. Seems as though you deserve this. Keep working if you would like. If and when you decide to retire the choice is yours. God Bless you and your family.
Congratulations 🎊 🎉 🎈 🍾 and God Bless 💜 ❤️ 💕 !!!
Do you think this family will regret being so public about their winnings?
they have no choice.Tennessee doesn't have an anonymity law.
Kelso King They had a choice to go on the Today show or be so public about it.
+Chiefly Chieftain you are absolutely right. hopefully all goes well for them.
Kelso King
I don't want in harm to come to them. I wish them well as well.
I'd never go public but how do you hide $327 million it would've got out sooner or later.
Congratulations 🥳👏 to the winners.
I have won the lottery.
I trust the universe to deliver what I have won.
I am grateful for and ready to receive my gift of financial abundance.
God Bless You Guys. Remember To Stay True To Your Values.
Don't trust your soul to no backwoods southern lawyer !
Cause the judge in the towns has blood stains on his hands.
Amen 🙏💜⭐😍🥰🥳God bless you always and enjoy your Price!! 😍🙏👏👏👌
You worked all your lives.. it's time to try something different! There's things you don't even KNOW you want to do yet, without going out of your comfort zone. There's always something you wish you had TIME to do!
This definitely allows them to pursue these options.. I am happy for them.
People are using these winners to scam others via e-mail. be careful!

Maybe their definition of small is different to yours.. maybe it's a good investment or tax advice they were given.
The problem was that after they came out in this interview people started calling her place of work and harassed her for money. And people kept showing up at their house. Hence the move to a private retreat.
