Who is from Wisconsin on here did you hit the Powerball Lottery?

Who is from Wisconsin on here, did anyone play the Powerball Lottery? 100 Workers at Cheese Factory Hit Powerball, anyone work at Cheese Plant?[:D]

Thats a nice chunk of change too. Like it when blue collar people hit that.

Ya’ll would know it was me, cuz I wouldn’t be here. Thats for sure…

working in a cheese plant was my third choice of careers , 1st one being adult film star ,2nd working on the railroad , 3rd, cheese factory .

To make a long story short, been on the railroad for 20 years

So the adult film biz wasn’t all it was cracked up to being??!

LOL, sorry but I couldn’t resist…

Nah, the hours are terrible…I’ll let you figure how I know that.

Thats not cool…

Ah, yes the “Miracle Mile” strikes again! Fond du lac, WI scores the big bucks again…$208 million split among 20 workers at Sargento Cheese. I’ve lost track of how many millionaires there are here…getting up to the double digits…[:D]

If you’re in the area…most of the Mega Bucks millionaires bought their tickets at Ma and Pa’s Grocery Express on South Main in Fond du Lac.[;)]

They said on T.V. 100 Workers Hit the Powerball?

Do you mean they’ll have to line up, just to tell their boss to “take this job, and shove it!”.[(-D]

I stand corrected.

Well it sure was not me cause I’m still here and. I’m still working as a bus driver.

$83.5K each for 25 years. Best rethink “take this job…”

Is that $83,500 each winner, per year,times 25 years? If it is, I’m thinking that might be more than what your average production worker in a cheese factory makes?

That is a nice little win they all got!. I wish Wyoming had a Lottery. Gotta go out of state to get a ticket. I remember buying my very first lotto ticket in a small gas station in Scottsbluff, Nebraska. Right next to the tracks :stuck_out_tongue: I think if we took the revinues thatr aren’t taken for payouts, and put it all in the schools, that our school system wouldn’t be in the sad shape its in now.

It said on tonight News that Each Winner will get about $650,000.00 in Cash. They are taking the Cash about 92 Million Dollars before Federal Taxes about 25 or 26 Million in Taxes.[:)]

If you Hit the Big One at an Indian Casino like Foxwoods Casino up in CT its Tax Free Money or any Indian Casino in USA, or Go Las Vegas Casino Or Atlantic City, NJ You will Pay 28% Federal Taxes on the Jackpot. I think all the Lottery should be Tax Free.[:D]

First, the government gets its end profiting on the sales revenues vs. payouts.

Then, they zap you again for income tax on your winnings.

Finally, as you spend what’s left over, they collect sales tax.

And when you die, Probate Court takes another bite.

Of course, you realize that the odds are better on your working toward and earning a million dollars vs. winning it in a lottery.

Perhaps if you hadn’t made that ‘long’ story ‘short’, you could have had that first choice. [;)]

I think The Everly Brothers put it best in the words from one of their immortal songs from the 1960’s…‘DREAM, DREAM, DREAM’

Dreams Do come True, If you have the Luck with You and Right Lottery ticket.[:D]
