Questions For Shaniac about bringing prize money home.

Shaniac or any other 2+2er that scored at the Aussie Millions,

Did they just cut you a check in Aus $, or US $ or just wire transfer your winnings back to the US? How do the exchange rates/transfer fees affect your take ? Was there any special paperwork that you had to file ?

Just curious, If too private I understand.

How are they handling the exchange rate ? is there a charge or fee ?

normally the casino gives you a pretty decent exchange rate.

Also wiring the money is the only way if you win any large amount. Taking 100k+ back in cash would be ridiculous.

Why, you only won $1,000,000 right?

Stuff it in your socks, you'll be ok
