TO CLOSE

Some of us have our thermostat set to happy. Some are about to be depressed. How to win the lottery does it rock it up or down?
North Jersey record

A New Jersey person won the Mega Millions jackpot, worth $ 267 million, on Friday night, according to the lottery website.

One ticket corresponds to numbers 29 – 33 – 39 – 60 – 66 and Megaball 21 and was sold somewhere in the Garden State.

We did not know immediately where the ticket had been sold. According to a lottery official, it's the second consecutive month of March that a winning ticket from a Mega Millions jackpot has been sold in New Jersey.

If the winner chooses the option in cash, the ticket will be worth around $ 159 million.

The Mega Millions jackpot has not been won since January 1, when 23 employees in New York City won the $ 437 million prize.

If you've just won the Mega Millions jackpot, you should probably call a lawyer and be prepared to say no to a lot of people because life is about to get a little hectic.

Unfortunately, if you hope to stay in the shade with your winnings, you are out of luck. In New Jersey, winners must be identified. But perhaps not long after a bill was introduced to the state legislature of New Jersey to allow the winners to remain anonymous.
