$522 Million Mega Millions Jackpot
June 7, 2019 — California
The winning Mega Millions ticket was sold at a 7-Eleven in San Jose, California. Although California does not allow anonymous claims, the winner kept a low profile. The 7-Eleven franchise received a $1 million selling bonus from the California Lottery.
What Happened Next
Payout choice: The winner chose the lump sum cash option of $340 Million, which after federal taxes (37% top bracket) and applicable state taxes results in a significantly reduced — but still life-changing — take-home amount.
