Even if you win a $1 million dollar jackpot, you’re not really a millionaire. The IRS withholds 28 percent annually from your winning lottery check. Also more than $61 million dollars have gone unclaimed because most states require that any winning ticket must be filed within six months of the winning date; however, tickets get thrown away, washed, stolen or misplaced.
According to SavingAdvice.com the probability of winning a single state lottery is 18 million to 1 and the odds of winning a multiple state lottery are 120 million to 1. This m
