Back in May 2012 we had 17 second place winners, worth $250,000 each. That is not the
mega millions we are striving for but none the less not to shabby. That’s enough money to change their lives so they can breathe easy on easy street from now on.

Twelve workers at Fuji sushi restaurant on Queens Boulevard pooled their cash together to buy the Mega Millions ticket, they are very happy today with their winnings. One of the winners in struggling to put together words of her fortune said, yes I am very happy! And why not? We all wish we were so lucky.

Another shop owner who sold one of those tickets was recorded as saying, “I’m lucky. My store is lucky and the customer is lucky too,” Shahabuddin Sikder of 113 Newsstand told ABC7. Lucky in that the store by selling a winning ticket is awarded a sum of money for each winner or paying ticket sold. So yeah, he is happy too, his store earned more money by merely selling a winning ticket, nice. Another shop owner selling tickets was also pleased in selling a winning ticket. This is great news,” said Adam Lantigua, who has owned the International Deli on 14th Ave. in Borough Park for 10 months.

Speaking of Lantigua’s Deli We are a lucky place now so business will be good and we are happy for the business in this day and time. In the month of May three Mega Million tickets were claimed in ILLINOIS, KANSAS and MARYLAND. This did disappoint some local gamblers in NY but they have vowed to keep playing anyway.

Remember, you cannot be on the winners list if you do not play the game. So every week millions of people just like you go out and visit their local store, pre-chosen numbers in hand and place their bets hoping to be the next Megamillions NY overall Jackpot winner. Many have a similar dream of being able to make sure their families are taken care of. The Hospital bills paid or a new house and dreams of a new car all financial worries behind you after winning the Mega Jackpot.

Some people may dream of sending the grandkids off to school or to buy their wife or mother a new house. Others dream of retiring and never working again and maybe even leave everything behind and going on permanent vacation. Even others may wish to tell the boss where to go and quit in some kind of grand gesture of defiance.

More recent winners from New York includes Philip Cimino, a floral designer from Garden City Park. He was reported to say that he never thought he would be able to retire until he won the Mega Millions Lottery Prize. Now 67 he feels he can retire now. He would use the receipt numbers on sales slips. He would use a set for a week or two and then change the numbers with new receipt numbers. Cimino said he was about to change the numbers he uses when he hit the Jackpot.

Cimino decided to receive his $33,000,000 jackpot prize with a one lump sum payment valued at $24,793,388. His net check will total $16,408,264. Cimino plans to use the prize to help family and friends. “I have no need for luxury things. I just want to sleep at night knowing I’ll be okay,” he said.

You need money for almost everything in this lifetime. So what would it really feel like to have close to an unlimited income' Winning a cash prize and becoming a mega millions winner are two completely different things. Cash prizes are very helpful meanwhile lottery prizes can literally change your life. Stressing about the same financial issues may no longer be an issue for you as a lottery winner.

That is how drastically things will change. Your life will change to the point where the people in your life just may as well. To be friends with, related to or just associated with a newly found millionaire is beneficial to any person (in hopes that you may profit off of those winnings somehow). When becoming a lotto winner, it is your call how things pan out so you must be very careful. A large percentage of US residents will never be able to admit to winning the
lotto.

This is just not a common thing for people. Those who are lucky enough will be
able to testify about it but that’s it. Even though the lotto is a very much
known and common form of gambling, a lot of individuals still choose to keep
their distance from this game. For those that will win, it will only inspire
them to continuously play. Of course there are individuals who may win multiple
times in their lifetime.

Those are the chosen ones in which luck was on their side. There will never be a set way to win but there will always be a chance for you to win. Changing your life with the power of finance becomes 100 times easier. You are
able to do way more when this is the case. Everything from investing to donating
or volunteering to help others. Investing will help stretch your winnings when
you receive what you put out, back (in higher increments).

You can even obtain a whole life makeover with your winnings! Whatever will make you happy, whether it’s renovating your home to getting a new paint job for or repairing your car. You can update your wardrobe, improve your appearance or start your own business. The benefits of becoming a lottery winner are truly life changing. Ecstatic, happy, blessed, thankful – all some of the emotions you may feel winning the lotto.

Admiring the fact that you are the lucky mega millions winner of your location. It is rare that multiple people will choose the exact same number combos but it is possible that it may affect your prize slightly. It will also make you very happy that you (unlike most others) have made or owned a million dollars in your lifetime. Some people will definitely be happy for you while others may not. You must stand clear of the non-supportive ones and definitely be mindful of those you tell.

Depending on your state tax laws, that will determine what percentage of your
earnings will get eliminated from the total amount. The larger the amount
awarded, the larger the percentage (taken) will be but you should still be able
to enjoy the prize earned. You must be 21 to be eligible to gamble anywhere in
the US so make sure you play according to the official rules. Failure in doing
so will cancel your chances of winning if you have officially won. Many people
use fake ID’s and other loopholes to take advantage of the system but the
consequences are much worst when exposed. There is a mega millions winner every day and you could be next. To play in your location, find the nearest
participating store.
