    I believe this system has to change and give the rights for winners to remain anonymous for their own safety!!

      I think the reason why it's not anonymous is so that people believe someone actually wins. If its anonymous all the time people would think its a scam

    • @edmundanderson657
      @edmundanderson657 Год назад

      @Hay m high It doesnt work that way. The lower numbers are all fixed amounts. Not knowing all the numbers off the top of my head and unless you pay extra for power play 5 balls gets you 1 mill. If you pay for power play could be up to 5 mill. 4 balls is like 10k, it will increase if you pay for power play but nowhere near a million. And that is no matter how big the jackpot prize is.

    • @toddinthemiddle
      @toddinthemiddle Год назад

      dumb take. $20 million would net about $6M after the dust settles...vs $600M for a $2B prize.
      the payments on $20M are paltry...the payments on $2B are well over a million a month, averaged out.

    I'm glad he is ok. Security is always a main focus when winning this sort of money. Heck, can u say cameras and a condo on the top floor. I don't want a house. Just a Penthouse. In a secured building. Rubbing elbows with the rich baby. I don't need all of the maintenance. I want to live lavish. I already know where I want to live. My day is here.

      He said....if you are young. Younger people tend to not take wise counsel of investing the money and living on dividends. Taking the payout will force this and 10-15 years later, when you're more mature...you will still have money coming. Most blow the lump sum in 5-7 years.

      If it pays out over 30 years, they'd be getting 5.5M a MONTH! Don't have to worry if you screw up and lose it, because mores coming! Plus you get more in total that way.

    I think that the lotttery shouldn't be so much. With so many people in need of money, why not find a way for the lottery to serve many people, including people in lower income areas. Include a special lottery for the homeless and displaced. For those who need help with mortgage, medicine, etc. Sorry, but millions upon millions of dollars going to one person is a waste.

      Not true. Many people have wonderful successful lives after winning the lottery. But it tends to be the ones who were doing well in life to begin with. If your life is a disaster before you win, the money will only cause your life to escalate completely out of control.
