Facebook Powerball frenzy: Purported winner offers to \’share\’ $1 million

$\"\"$

Click to View

Karen Bach, director of budget, products and communications of the A

His name is Nolan Daniels, and he’s just about to give some random dude or dudette $1 million. Or so he claims.

Purporting to be the second Powerball winner in Wednesday’s $588 million payout, Mr. Daniels posted a Facebook photo late Thursday of himself holding a ticket showing the winning numbers. The photo is the only one visible on Daniels\’s account, which dates to 2008.

\”Looks like I’m not going to work … EVER!!!\” the smiling purported winner exclaimed. The numbers on his ticket – 5-23-16-22-29-Powerball 6 – correspond to the winning combination, but the ticket has not been publicly verified.

To make the Facebook announcement that much more bizarre, Daniels vowed to give $1 million of his winnings to a \”random\” person who \”shares\” his photo.

That set off a frenzy Friday as thousands of Facebook users got in on the action, with the photo being shared over 1,000 times a minute, with over 100,000 shares as of 3:30 p.m.

On his Facebook page, Daniels chastised skeptics and suggested, \”Anyone who doubts the legitimacy of this photo will not be included in the 1 million dollar drawing.\”

There were two winners in the drawing. The only winners confirmed so far are Cindy and Mark Hill of Dearborn, Mo., who decided to take a lump sum payment. Lottery authorities have not revealed the name of the other winner, who bought a ticket in Arizona. Earlier on Friday, some guessed that a video of a man celebrating in Maryland might show the winner.

The payout is the second largest in US history after three ticket buyers shared a $656 million jackpot in March. As the amount grew this week, tickets were selling at a rate of 130,000 a minute.

\’Fiscal cliff\’: Obama, Republicans revert to campaign mode | cnbnews

$\"\"$

Three weeks after winning reelection, President Obama is returning to the campaign trail. But instead of stumping for himself, he’s pushing for tax hikes on the wealthy, in the name of deficit reduction.

The president’s trip Friday to a toy factory in suburban Philadelphia will cap a week of outreach to various constituencies on issues around the \”fiscal cliff\” –the broad tax increases and spending cuts that kick in with the new year if Congress doesn’t act.

NJ SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS ASK SPEAKER BOEHNER \”WHERE ARE THE JOBS?\”

Respond to Speaker Boehner’s comments reported today in The Hill 11/28/12: \”We’re not going to grow the economy if we raise tax rates on the top two rates,\” the Speaker added. \”It’ll hurt small businesses. It’ll hurt our economy. That’s why it’s not the right approach.\”

NEW JERSEY –New Jersey Small Business owners today criticized Speaker Boehner’s comments that raising taxes on the wealthiest 2% of Americans would hurt America’s economy and hurt America’s small businesses. To the contrary, 97% of small businesses would be unaffected by allowing the Bush-era tax cuts to expire for the wealthiest 2% of Americans. Most of New Jersey’s small businesses would benefit from Congress doing the right thing – extending the tax cuts for the middle-class and allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire for the wealthiest 2%.
