    If all unclaimed monies are transferred to a educational trust fund, why are class sizes so large, teachers paid so little, supply list so long and why are school tax the largest part of my property tax ever year. Exactly who is getting enhancements from this “trust fund”. With as much money as the lottery claims to give to education, where and who is all this money benefitting.

    @wondering – Florida law requires that 80 percent of unclaimed prize funds from expired tickets be transferred directly to the Educational Enhancement Trust Fund. The remaining 20 percent is returned to the prize pool from which future prizes are awarded or used for special prize promotions.

    what happens to the money? If the lottery is not won the money is kept in the pot until the next winner. Is this money going to be given to the one that won the following draw?
