“You automatically want to share that with someone else” girl lmao!
Not today satan
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha thank your for the laugh Eric. My thoughts exactly!
She’s crazy
Today you're rich and by telling everyone you become famous. Tomorrow your broke out of your ass, and nobody wants anything to do with you. That's why people want to borrow your money and NEVER pay you back. But because a large group of nobodies expects you to be a good person, you are obligated to forget about it. So yeah sharing is caring.
The identity of these people who win big should be kept a secret.
I agree. Talk about a contract hit. It’s good that Maryland has the laws on the books to keep the identity a secret 🤫 if the person so chooses.
Agreed
No that’s disrespectful people need to know who wins
Agreed! Shouldn’t be done any other way, imo.
I agree but only to a point… I understand people are scared of other people knowing that they won millions of dollars… But… The news and government can come on the television and tell you that some mystery person won the money when in reality the government took it back… Did you ever think of that? so continue to think that real people are winning this money LOL… You'll just have to sit there and believe it because they won't tell you who won it… not to mention… I would not be scared if they put my name out there after I won all that money… LOL the money is in the bank anyways not inside my house or car so there is no freaking reason not to tell the world who won the money… You guys are all brainless sheep… Did you guys ever hear of police? Did you ever think that maybe if you feel stalked in danger… That you could call authorities? I guess you forget that there are cameras every 10 feet around every city including your house… So what is everybody on this chat scared of knowing who won the money? You guys make me puke get a life and stop listening to your government
they’re some entitled strangers 😂
What i said lol eff that!
@@ItsOnlyKim fr
I'd move asap
THEY BETTER NEVER RELEASE THEIR IDENTITY. I WOULDN’T 🤫 I would move out of that small town immediately.
Same
ditto. get your winnings, get your business squared away then move out of state asap.
@@m.c.9419 Facts
I would to. You pretty much have to move if you win.
It’s wrong that the other states require you to show your identity.
Plot twist: It was a trucker or someone just passing through the town😂
Lol 😂 I was thinking the same thing
💀💀
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thst would b nice
I like this
“You automatically want to share that with someone else”
Winner:
*didn't share it with anybody else*
That's not how we do it here.
Exactly LOL like they have something to hide… It's not like people are going to surround him and jump him LOL money is digital nowadays not like he carries the cash and if I were in the same situation… I would love to give some money away
Family comes first. Not the community. Wow.
Sharing the news not the money
It’s disgusting that everyone is already laying claim to this person’s money and talking about it as community money. Whoever you are, MOVE AWAY AS SOON AS THE CHECK CLEARS.
Right why do they need to give money to the community . They don’t owe anyone anything.
They shouldn't feel obligated to help no community that never helped them.
That’s how people go broke: they get manipulated into “helping” because they’re made to feel like they owe it to people. To hell with that!
All I hear is share share share they making the winner feel like he is obligated to give them something wouldn't give them nothing not selfish they're selfish for acting like they deserve some of that money rather than congratulating that person and wish them luck
Exactly! He doesn’t owe the community squat.
"... you automatically want to share that with everyone else." What?! How you figure? It would be a nice sentiment if the winner decided to give back but they aren't obligated to. I hope this person is able to stay safe-- no way they'll stay confidential in a town that small-- they're already speculating. Congrats, though...cousin! 👀
She heard how dumb that shit sounded 😂😂 that’s why it came out slow.
I’d share with everyone. Money doesn’t mean every thing to everyone
Right?! Jeff bezos has billions and doesn't share it with everyone. The lotto winner shouldn't have to
@@mikeycroker3480 Not my point, at all. People automatically assume that the winner should/better give back-- that expectation shouldn't be there. It happens with every big lottery win, everybody wants a taste. It's how many end up broke or dead... then, where are all the people they "helped"?
I personally would create a charity that I'd hope has longevity well beyond my lifespan...but the winner should do as they please and the people around should respect that. What the young woman said was lightweight compared to how some hanger-ons feel, but still, they didn't provide police protection to the person people have been speculating about, for nothing.
Right! Had she been the winner I bet she wouldn't be saying that🤐🤐🙄🙄
Damn, leave the person alone.
there identity shouldn’t be released....
for real
I do not agree, otherwise how would we know the government did not take it
@@harley8728 if his identity released people will target him and try to rob him, etc.
Right
@@harley8728 that's just plain false and not a question let's be real for a second.
How about people MIND their business. The person clearly doesn't want to be found. Leave them alone with their winnings. Geez...cover more important stories.
I hope the winner remains anonymous, he/she'll save everyone around him/her from becoming a vampire.
Stop it not everyone wants to be famous leave the person alone.
That's just how the media is, and they know what they're doing can put peoples lives at risk but do it anyways, if they were in that situation they would wanna be anonymous aswell.
Wishing everyone here good health and happiness! ❤️
you too.
Thank you! Wishing you the same.
Same to you.thanks
Thanks you too
Thanx 2 you & yours!!🤗😊
Damn i wish i can win something. Need it so bad.
Same
Exactly, the type of person that I am would never be selfish and keep money to myself. After the lottery takes the taxes I would take the rest and share it. Who the heck needs triple digit millions? Especially in the DMV. It’s always some old winning.
Wish could win just to pay off my house!..Sending Blessing to the winner!
STAY ANONYMOUS
Like we are doing on UA-cam. Everyone else show face😎😂
YES. It would be unsafe to show their face on tv. Just look at the comments, omg. People asking a complete stranger for money. People go crazy for money, sadly ): I hope they stay safe.
@@miaa1762 exactly
All states should allow winners to remain anonymous.
Exactly
Exactly
They tryna get people killed lol
Right, they want to take your damn picture and stuff I be like u better get on some where lol
Melo Drama Exactly. A young guy was killed a few years ago in Georgia. He won maybe $100,000 plus or minus and somebody murdered him for the money.
Idk why I busted out laughing at the last Girl saying sharing with everybody else.
I’m not sharing a damn cent haha
If people are pressuring the winner to share the money, that's a sign they shouldn't
It's not even there money and they want a piece. Absolutely ridiculous. It should be there choice whether they share the wealth or not. Don't hound people for money
That little small town. Really! They know who that winning ticket is.
If I ever win the lottery..fingers crossed 🤞🏽🤞🏽
But I WILL KEEP IT A SECRET. Even from my own momma cause that woman got a big mouth 🙄
I already have a plan for that one wish 😄
How nice of this man to share with his employees!
I'm sure it's one of the clerks who won it, they are just not telling anyone.
Coming forward is a death sentence
I can’t imagine the harassment they get from all their peers
I haven't checked my mega million quick pick yet. Never matters anyways, every time I check them think nothing ever comes about. I always ask for my ticket back when I don't win just in case they lied.
Yup everyone wants someone to help when they run out again and still want a Handout
The media so quick to put people life in jeopardy
Did she really just say "You automatically want to share with everyone else?" bish what?Who are you? lmfao
People should be allowed to remain anonymous.
They don’t “need” to share.. they could just move out of the town & start a new live somewhere else not where a whole town wants his/ her money..
that would be best for them...
Anonymity is the best strategy if I win that amount of money I would remain anonymous too
Urban and suburban communities outnumber Powerball players nationwide
and it never fails that the big jackpot winners generally come from smallest towns on the map. Congrats and god bless to the winner whomever it may be 😇
Now let’s see what city and state is lucky to have financial windfall from the gargantuan mega millions jackpot tonight 👀
And it should be anonymous.
“HoW wIlL yOuR eMpLoYeEs BeNeFiT fRoM iT”
How do you think sir?😂
I wouldn't feel i owe the community nothing..especially if they go acting like that woman who made an issue out of it.
Well it wasn't me!😥
Hahaha 🤣
Oh my god! Whoever it is, run from there ASAP.
Stay a mystery! Hide! Run! Invest!
How come they didnt show the numbers on that ticket before the drawing so I could have played them 🤣🤣
LET PEOPLE LIVE IN PEACE!
May The Winner be safe and protected. Good luck to whomever it could be, but I hope they stay unidentified. I am sure they will find a way to reinvest in their community, but it needs to be under the safety of being able to stay private.
They need time to process and plan, that way they can be a Blessing for the rest of their life and extend blessings appropriately. A lottery winner cannot be expected to solve the world's problems overnight.
Prayers for us all to reach the financial freedom we need to live a healthy and balanced life we can truly prosper from.
Mayor - "It's definitely not the person police are suddenly guarding" lmao
I have 1140 Dlls on Savings 3 weeks of work ..AND I FEEL RICH ALLREADY. THANKS GOD FOR HAVING JOB....💖💖💖
Good for u..I feel the why.
That’s right don’t open your mouth if you win. Just lay low keep your everyday life the same for a while. Just lay low.
They are most likely speaking with lawyers and financial advisors before coming forward. Congratulations on the win!
Always a small town small little rundown store
Congratulations to whoever it is and may he reach out to me and send me a blessing 💙
Congratulate your government then because they took it back and that's how it works when there's a mystery
You will never win a lottery
@@scrapdaddyap9853 you’re right, a loser like you will never win one
🤦🏻♀️ Don’t expect anything people, seriously 😳??
Exactly
That's true hope you safe over there can we know each other better if you don't mine I'm single and you please I'm waiting to hear from you
If I win the lottery win that much money, I be like:😳😃😁🤗🤐🤫, People would tell me that someone won the lottery and I'll be like:😶
Thats one lucky mystery winner of the 731 million dollar Powerball jackpot.
It's me! I am the winner. Now, who would like some money?
Me
Should’ve been me 😭 congratulations to the lucky winner
Stay silent whoever you are !!!
To the local mailman... if someone’s mailbox starts overflowing in the next few days, the winner is laying dead in his/her la-z-boy after watching all their numbers being drawn...just a theory
I would share it honestly. Its plenty to go around.
When I win the lottery, I would change my name and move somewhere far.
You got that right that way a person want have to be bothered by people begging for money.
Whoever you are don’t dare reveal your identity.Keep it to yourself and tell your closest friend or family and immediately take ur bag and leave the town now!!
congrats to the winner..i know they have to be scared and nervous..take your time winner and have your layers ready
Ian glad someone that needed the money won God is good he will provide. God Bless to whoever it is.
Crazy to think that people in the town think that they deserve it. Glad they can stay anonymous.
I am so jealous. Congratulations to the person.
Congratulations! Spend and live wisely on your winnings. 😺
That's true hope you safe over there can we know each other better if you don't mine I'm single and you please I'm waiting to hear from you
I'm happy for that person, hope they do wisely with it. Sigh, wish it was me
I'd be hiding too If the whole town was looking for me to take what they can.
Since we live in a banana republic, they should investigate lottery officials.
Only one question? Why do things that only happen in the movies? .... Happen in real life?That is a crazy, insane amount of money??
Lmao I’d own the town and all the property and kick every one out for a statement like that
😂😂😂😂
God Bless and good for you !!!!
That's true hope you safe over there can we know each other better if you don't mine I'm single and you please I'm waiting to hear from you
Congratulations to the lucky person that won a this
Congratulations who ever you are
The huge payouts are always in small towns in the middle of nowhere and the winner is always some white old man or woman with a few teeth missing. I'm calling it now. I can see the photo op now, it's like dejavu.
It’s always an old person because they basically spend money on playing the lottery all the time
That's true hope you safe over there can we know each other better if you don't mine I'm single and you please I'm waiting to hear from you
The BIGGEST wealth is to have a romantic partner and family who loves you unconditionally for life :/
💯💯💯💯💯
this is uplifting love this news
In my place their isn't many people around here and also their is alot of gasoline store
STAY ANONYMOUS!!! For the love I’d god stay anonymous.
Good luck for everything 👍🏼
731 million is a absurd amount of money, i barely spent 500 mil on gta with modded money imagine 730 mil 😳, he/she better hide all that under the mattress bc you know the irs wants his ass now
Yeah its always a mystery winner once it's almost a billion dollar.
I don’t understand how someone can be that lucky. Shit I can’t even hit 1 number
I would stay Anonymous they already asking for money so imagine if they knew who it was smh hell nah
Ikr greedy fuckers are everywhere
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Hope you the best
if i won i’d want no one to know but my family and close friends. if random people know u won its dangerous so i don’t blame them

*Me in Sacramento listen: * Dam it wasn’t me 😩
Honestly god bless whoever won that money. God knows we all need something good in our lives to look forward too
That's true hope you safe over there can we know each other better if you don't mine I'm single and you please I'm waiting to hear from you
I'm keeping my ass anonymous.
Blessings to the winner and I hope they bless their true family and friends.Don’t let that $ make you,Be humble.
CONGRATULATIONS BLESSINGS BLESSINGS BLESSINGS BLESSINGS BLESSINGS BLESSINGS to you me and all 🤑🥰🤗
That's true hope you safe over there can we know each other better if you don't mine I'm single and you please I'm waiting to hear from you
Like they say "Sharing is caring"
That's what they want you too think but if one of the people saying that won they wouldn't share
The entire village is depending on that money😂Run Run RuN fast as you can an don’t look back
Lmfaoooo
It was won here in Maryland!!!!!!!
Why I felt this is a fraud? How many times mega and powerball has a jackpot winner at the same time? So many times and I can’t recall.
Dont tell...please don't do it disappear.
Am glad they can remain anonymous if they want
Awesome
LOL it's always a mystery when the government recoups the money… And that's exactly what happened this time
I thought the same thing! 😉
I said the same shit ! They not fucking slick at all ! I knew it was going to be a state where you don't have to share your identity. They gotta get that stimulus money back
It's a bogus, pick. Lottery officials aren't fair in picking where the lottery winning ticket comes from. There's hardly a minority winner in low-income areas.
Wealth redistribution.... pretty much always an all white rural town
If you read the history of jackpot winning tickets, most of them were sold in the north east states. I wonder why ?
why are people even worried about someone elses bag
😜😜😂😂
