Michigan Lottery player takes $865,124 jackpot in Lucky Clover game

CBS News17-07-2025
A Tuscola County woman has won a $865,124 jackpot in the Michigan Lottery Lucky Clover game with what she originally thought was a losing ticket.
The lottery announced the win Wednesday, saying the ticket was purchased June 28 at Millington Inn on State Road in Millington, near Saginaw. The 65-year-old woman, who chose to remain anonymous, recently visited Michigan Lottery headquarters to claim her prize.
"I buy a Fast Cash ticket almost every day, and I bought this one while I was out to eat one night," the player said. "I didn't think I won anything, but I asked the bartender to scan the ticket for me. She said it came back with a message to file a claim, so I would have to call the Lottery office Monday morning to figure out what's going on.
"The next morning, I got a call from the bartender telling me they sold a jackpot winning Fast Cash ticket the night before, so to look my ticket over again because that may be why the message to file a claim came up. My first thought was that she was lying to me because I thought it was impossible that I may have won. When I looked my ticket over again and saw I really was the big winner, I couldn't help but cry!"
The Michigan Lottery Fast Cash games are a series of instant-win games, with a progressive jackpot that increases until someone wins it. The game's tickets range in cost from $2 per play up to $30 per play.

Beware these stocks that could be next to cut their dividend after Whirlpool

After Whirlpool slashed its dividend post-market Monday, investors are on high alert for other companies that could follow suit. CNBC Pro has some names to keep an eye on. The Michigan-based appliance maker expect to cut its annual payout payout to $3.60 per share from $7. Whirlpool also posted a disappointing second-quarter earnings report, which sent shares plunging as much as 14% Tuesday. Whirlpool's move can raise concern that some companies will need to pull back shareholder dividends as macroeconomic uncertainty and tariffs weigh on their business. Given that, CNBC Pro screened the companies in the S & P 1500 index to try and find those with potentially troubling financial profiles. First we looked for those companies with dividend yields above 6%. Then we further screened for those companies that are expected to see free cash flow decline this year and that have debt-to-equity ratios above 100%. The dividend coverage ratio also had be below Whirlpool's 2.1. Here are the five stocks we turned up: One of the stocks on the list, United Parcel Service , reported earnings on Tuesday. The Atlanta-based shipper confirmed that it expects to pay out about $5.5 billion in dividends for the full year, though UPS said it would not give guidance for revenue and operating profit due to macroeconomic uncertainty. UPS shares fell nearly 9% Tuesday, bringing its year-to-date decline to more than 26%. Despite that, Wall Street is optimistic: the average analyst polled by LSEG has a buy rating and sees shares rebounding about 21%. Wendy's , which is expected to report earnings next month, also appeared on the screen. The fast food chain's shares have tumbled about 37% in 2025, reaching a 52-week low on Tuesday. The majority of analysts have a hold rating, although the average price target suggests shares can rally nearly 29% over the next year, according to LSEG.
