CBS Newsa day ago

Two residents in two different western Pennsylvania counties won a recent Pennsylvania Lottery Cash 5 with Quick Cash jackpot and will split the prize.
Two jackpot-winning tickets from the Monday, June 9, drawing will split a jackpot prize of $2,325,690. The winning tickets were sold in Butler and Erie counties.
Each jackpot-winning ticket matched all five balls drawn, 4-7-17-27-36, to win individual prizes of $1,162,845. More than 44,700 other Cash 5 with Quick Cash tickets also won in the drawing.
The winning tickets were sold at a 7-Eleven location along Glen Eden Road in Cranberry Township, Butler County, and the Giant Eagle on West 12th Street in Millcreek Township, Erie County. Each retailer will earn a $10,000 bonus for selling the winning tickets.
A main Cash 5 game prize must be claimed within one year of the drawing date, lottery officials say.
Any prizes won on any Quick Cash game must be claimed within one year of the purchase date. Anyone holding a jackpot-winning Cash 5 with Quick Cash ticket should contact the nearest Lottery office or call 1-800-692-7481.
Players are advised to thoroughly check every ticket and claim lower-tier prizes at an authorized Lottery retailer.
The Pennsylvania Lottery says since it began selling tickets in 1972, it has contributed more than $36 billion to programs that benefit older residents, like tax and rent rebates, transportation and care services.

$100 million Powerball win sparks ATO, Centrelink warning for every Aussie: 'Trap'

Australians are being warned about the potential implications of winning the lottery following last night's $100 million Powerball draw. It was the biggest Powerball jackpot of 2025, and one lucky person walked away as the sole jackpot winner. However, there are a few stipulations worth considering as we get close to tax time and how a massive sum of cash like this can affect you. The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) had some handy advice. "You don't need to declare your winnings to us, and you won't pay tax on them," the tax office said. RELATED Major lottery warning after Aussie winners reveal what they spent their money on Centrelink cash boost coming from July 1 for millions of Aussies Aussie teen's job paying $300 per hour without a uni degree "But, any interest earned on the winnings will need to be included in your assessable income." If you were the sole winner of the jackpot and had it sitting in a savings account with a 5 per cent interest rate, you would generate around $5 million in just one year. Come tax time next year, you would have to pay tax on that immense amount of money. First Financial's James Wrigley told Yahoo Finance you should seek out advice from professionals if you win big as they can guide you into divvying up the money wisely before you spend it Australia doesn't always count lottery wins in its income assessment. This is because it assesses what you might earn on a regular basis and hitting the jackpot is stored under the "unlikely to happen again" and "hard to predict" categories. It's also because the money wasn't from "a service or work provided". But it depends on how you accept the payment. Lottery winners can usually either get it as a lump sum payment, or they can choose to have it spread out in regular payment intervals over several years. Services Australia will treat it as part of the income assessment if you pick the latter option because then it would be regular income, and that could drastically reduce how much Centrelink you receive. That's what happened to South Australian resident Frank Kemmler, who was kicked off his disability support pension after winning a $60,000 lotto prize. While he was stoked at the sudden influx of cash, he claimed he wasn't given an option between the lump sum or regular payments. The Adelaide man had to foot the bill for GP appointments and medication that was previously paid for by his pension. "I'm just trying to stop other people from falling into the same trap,' he told A Current Affair. 'These people that are buying these [lottery] tickets, there's no warning anywhere … to say that you're going to lose your pension. Centrelink recipients have been urged to tell Services Australia as soon as possible about their new financial situation. Even if you take a lump sum payment, your payments could still be affected. Depending on how much you win, the government body will include your lottery earnings as part of your asset test. If it's over a certain amount, combined with your other assets, your payments could be reduced or switched off. The winning numbers in Powerball draw 1517 on Thursday, 12 12 were 28, 10, 3, 16, 31, 14 and 21. The all-important Powerball number was 6. The person who won the entire $100 million jackpot purchased their ticket in Sydney's eastern suburbs. There were also six division two winners, who scored $282,415.55 each. In addition to them, there were 3,056,245 wins across divisions two to nine in the draw, and they have shared in more than $60.9 million of prize money. That's an average win of $19 each. Half of all Australian adults were expected to have bought a ticket for the megadraw. More than 10 million people bought a ticket for the last $100 million draw in November last year. If you didn't win, rest assured that scoring the grand prize has odds of one to 134 in to access your portfolio

This Unstoppable High-Yielding Dividend Stock Just Hiked Its Payout for an Incredible 131st Time in the Last 30 Years

Realty Income has raised its dividend payment 131 times since coming public in 1994. The REIT's high-yielding payout is on a rock-solid foundation. The company has plenty of room to continue expanding its portfolio and dividend payment. 10 stocks we like better than Realty Income › Some companies do an incredible job of paying dividends. Realty Income (NYSE: O) is one such company. The real estate investment trust (REIT) recently delivered its 131st dividend increase to its investors since its public market listing in 1994. It's the REIT's fourth dividend increase already this year. With one of the most bankable high-yielding monthly dividends around, Realty Income is an ideal stock to buy and hold for passive income. Realty Income recently declared its latest monthly dividend payment. The REIT will pay investors $0.269 per share in mid-July to those who own the stock by the first of next month. That raises its annualized dividend rate to $3.228 per share, which is a more than 5.5% yield at its recent stock price. The payout is 0.2% higher than its last payment and 2.3% above the year-ago level. The REIT's most recent raise is its 131st since coming public. It also extends the company's growth streak to 111 quarters in a row. Realty Income has increased its dividend in all 30 years since its public market listing. CEO Sumit Roy commented on Realty Income's latest dividend declaration in a press release. He stated, "The quality and diversification of Realty Income's portfolio allows us to provide investors reliable monthly dividends that increase over time." The CEO also remarked, "During times of market uncertainty, Realty Income remains committed to delivering investors predictable income streams." Realty Income should have no problem continuing to increase its dividend in the future. Driving that view is the strong foundation the company has built over the years. The bedrock is its high-quality real estate portfolio. Realty Income owns a diversified portfolio of over 15,600 retail, industrial, gaming, and other properties net leased to many of the world's leading companies. Notable tenants include 7-Eleven, Dollar General, FedEx, Home Depot, and Walmart. Its focus on investing in properties secured by long-term net leases enables the REIT to generate very predictable cash flow because tenants cover all property operating expenses, including routine maintenance, real estate taxes, and building insurance. Realty Income pays out a conservative percentage of its stable cash flow in dividends -- 75% of its adjusted funds from operations (FFO) in the first quarter. That gives it a comfortable cushion while allowing it to retain meaningful excess free cash flow to invest in more income-generating properties each year. It produced nearly $238 million in adjusted FFO after dividends in the first quarter of this year. The REIT also has a fortress balance sheet. It's one of only 10 REITs in the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) with two bond ratings of A3/A- or higher. Realty Income's excellent credit provides it with lower borrowing costs to fund new investments. Realty Income's diversification helps lower its risk profile while enhancing its growth prospects. The company estimates that the total addressable market for net lease real estate is $5.5 trillion in the U.S. and $8.5 trillion in Europe. The REIT has been steadily growing its opportunity set by expanding into new property verticals. It recently added U.S. gaming ($400 billion) and U.S. data centers ($500 billion) to its portfolio. The company has also expanded into additional European markets, added a credit investment platform, and is launching a private capital fund in the U.S. Its growing diversification has further expanded its already massive growth runway. Realty Income continues to steadily increase its already attractive monthly dividend payment. The REIT backs its payout with a high-quality real estate portfolio and top-notch financial profile. Add in its massive growth runway, and the REIT's dividend should remain unstoppable. Because of that, it's an ideal stock to buy and hold for a lifetime of passive dividend income.

Dollar hits fresh 2025 low as US tariff concerns pick up again

(Bloomberg) — The dollar (DX=F) extended its decline as worries over US tariffs increased after President Donald Trump said he would notify trading partners soon of unilateral levies. Shuttered NY College Has Alumni Fighting Over Its Future Trump's Military Parade Has Washington Bracing for Tanks and Weaponry NYC Renters Brace for Price Hikes After Broker-Fee Ban NY Long Island Rail Service Resumes After Grand Central Fire Do World's Fairs Still Matter? The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index slid as much as 0.6% to the lowest level since July 2023 on Thursday, extending the previous day's drop spurred by softer US inflation data. The euro rose to its strongest since November 2021. Traders will be monitoring US producer-price data due later Thursday for confirmation of subdued pressures. Some of its components feed into core personal consumption expenditure, the Federal Reserve's preferred measure of inflation. They will also watch an auction of 30-year Treasuries after yields surged last month on fiscal concerns. 'Dollar weakness has much more room to run,' said Vasileios Gkionakis, senior economist and strategist at Aviva Investors. He added the greenback's weakness despite rising yields show eroding investor confidence in US assets. The dollar's decline spilled into the currency volatility market, reinforcing the inverse correlation between the greenback and hedging costs recently. Demand was particularly pronounced in the one-week tenor, which captures the Fed's June 18 policy meeting. What Bloomberg's Strategists Say... 'Trader pricing still favors more Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, although the precise timing flips around depending on the prevailing investor mood. But what is consistent is the US dollar ploughing a path to the downside as FX trader convictions firm.' — Mark Cranfield, Markets Live Strategist, Singapore Currency traders will also be watching the upcoming Group-of-Seven summit for any trade negotiation developments. 'We are watching the G-7 summit closely for pending trade deals between the US and its key trading partners (e.g., Mexico and Canada),' said Alex Loo, macro strategist at TD Securities in Singapore. 'Leaks this week may boost sentiment, especially the likes of Canadian dollar and Mexican peso.' (Updates with pricing, analyst quote and options section.)
