Racer, congrats!

However, you have already broken the first and second rules of lottery winnings. Don’t talk about winning the lottery.

I walked out with $38,000. That was a 24% tax bite from the feds. No state income tax in Washington. Put away another $5000 for taxes.

Ah ok…thanks.

Congrats again

I’ve heard about stuff like this, but it still struck me as funny that her first thought was kidnapping, not VACATION!! or NEW HOUSE!! or something similar. Heck, she didn’t even consider that mayhem might befall her own sons!

She obviously looked at her sons, and decided your daughter was the one the kidnappers knew she would pay for.

since the numbers are (supposedly) random, your ticket was in fact no closer or farther away from winning $270 million dollars than any other ticket that did not match all the numbers. So don’t worry about that too much.
