[img]It's been almost a month since numbers were drawn for a historically massive Mega Millions game, and the owner of the over $1.5 billion winning ticket had not, at least as of Wednesday, claimed their prize. Meanwhile, a local CBS affiliate reported Monday state lottery officials in South Carolina were urging the mystery person to seek counsel from a financial advisor, sign the ticket, and stash it safely.

Really? He/she hasn't come forward in the 24 hours since the OT last had a thread on this?

That’s a lot of moneys to go unclaimed. What if the person dies?

The person probably died.

Read it in a Chinese accent and it makes more sense.

I was on a trip in SC and bought a lotto ticket. I washed it accidentally in my pants pocket.

Good lord man. Give me a break. Interviewing CPA's and attorneys is tough.

I provided a nice article for you.

I try not to be the grammar police, I really do. I keep my trap shut 99% of the time. But it amazes me at how many subject lines are fricked up. When typing a post you are typically rushing and I can see mistakes being made. But the subject? C’mon man!!!

They had some squabble here in Texas a few years ago with a lottery winner who wanted zero publicity, and the Lottery wouldnt have any of it. The winner ended up forming some kind of trust,and sent his/her Trust Overseer to claim the winnings.

Assuming the after tax and lump sum payment was 600mil.... the person has missed out on 1M plus in interest in a month.

This jackpot still hasn't been claimed. The ticket holder has until mid-April - 181 days from the Oct. 23 drawing date - to claim the prize. If the jackpot goes unclaimed, the money will be split among all of the states that participate in Mega Millions.
Is there a tax advantage angle involved here? Is foregoing two months of interest worth deferring the tax liability until April of 2020? I know the more likely explanation is that someone or some group is just being very careful to make sure their affairs are in order before they claim the prize, but I was curious about deferring the tax liability.
