In New Jersey. Someone won $1.13 billion on mega millions lottery
00:08
The person is unidentified at this point.
00:10
So, you know what that means,
00:12
Jenny, we're gonna have to find this person.
00:15
We have to find them if you have family in Jersey and
00:18
that, that's shady on you.
00:20
Two have family in Jersey.
00:21
I do. And somebody left the group chat last week.
00:23
So, mm Tia Consuelo,
00:29
where the fuck have you been?
00:31
You change your whatsapp profile pic.
00:33
You haven't done that in years and she's on,
00:35
she's in Cancun right now.
00:37
Dia Consuelo. Why you left the chat last week?
00:40
So New Jersey is actually one of the few states that you
00:44
can stay anonymous. So if you win the lottery,
00:47
you can stay anonymous.
00:48
Low key forever, dude,
00:50
I'd stay anonymous. keeping the lottery fever going.
00:53
This week's powerball is popping off as well.
00:56
00, sure. Is.
00:58
The jackpot is nearing $1 billion after nobody won the latest drawing
01:04
with no winning ticket.
01:06
The price has, has grown to $975 million for the next
01:13
drawing on Monday night.
01:14
That's, that's straight to the gas station.
01:18
After work, Jenny,
01:19
you already know 7-Eleven.
01:21
Here I come. If,
01:23
if someone wins, it would be the fifth largest jackpot in
01:26
powerball history. The winner can choose to receive the money as
01:30
a lump sum of 471.7 million or in yearly payments.
01:38
Over 30 years. I would never do the payment.
01:41
I wouldn't,,
01:44
you know what if something happens to you,
01:45
you saw what happened to the Boeing guy.
01:47
I'm saying too much right now.
01:48
But like, you know,
01:50
I feel like the lottery has another agenda.
01:51
So the odds of winning are about one in 292 million.
01:56
That's crazy. So,
01:58
would you stay anonymous or what do you think?
02:01
Would I stay? Probably,
02:03
but I would have to be in Jersey or one of those
02:06
other states. So over here,
02:07
you know, I wouldn't be able to hide it that much
02:09
but definitely would disappear.
02:12
I would for sure.
02:14
I would for sure stay anonymous.
02:16
I'd probably only tell my parents.
02:17
But then again, my mom tell her like,
02:19
I'm sorry, mom.
02:20
But my mom tell her she's mosa sometimes.
02:22
So I'm like, like you need to bite that tongue because
02:25
I don't want, I love you mom.
02:27
But yeah, but what would you guys,
02:28
what would you guys do if you win the lottery?
02:30
Would you stay anonymous or what are some of the signs?
02:33
There will be signs you see me with a big ass like
02:39
oh, shit,
02:40
I'm Jenny Dicks.
