Money: Powerball Winner claims $310M, only $140M after taxes!

[Louis Koo]

This is why I play $1 per $100 Million. That shit, as much as I would want it to happen, is extremely unlikely. And, with it being so unlikely, I'm not going to break myself to try. I see mofo's spending $250-500 when the jackpot gets big Not me. I get in with 2 co-workers and we drop $1 per 100 million. If we don't win we just bought burgers for lunch.

a few years ago, i read an article that had 2 main points:
1. the value of a lottery ticket is that half hour or so of planning out what you would do if you won (i.e entertainment value)
2. if you want to increase your odds per $1 spent, pool it with coworkers (i.e. statistics)

What the entire fuck is this thread title. Only 140M .... only!!!!

If you buy a $2 lottery ticket and walk away with 140M after taxes .... you're winning!!!!

Only in America can someone win a free 140M and walk away feeling cheated over the 170M left on the table.

Fuck that 170M and fuck that table too well we're at it. That 320M is all mythological money and 20 years ain't promised. Tomorrow ain't promised.

Yeah, you've got point. In my younger years I might have said pay me over time but not now. There is nothing stopping the state from taxing the out years at a higher rate or coming up with some excuse why they can no longer meet the payment obligation. I'd rather take what I can get, pay off all bills then change my name, zip code and time zone. Shit, new ssn too.

He's got the game fucked up.

If the church wins a lottery do they get taxed

I'm waiting for Edwin to be on the tv show "How I lost all of my millions" the Lottery edition.

I assume gambling is against religion, but guess it would depends on who plays. I.e. buying the ticket in the churches name vs a paster or someone in a leadership role.

What sucks too is when your name is broadcast / published as the winner (of any big lotto draw).

Suddenly people come out of the woodwork, as expected.

And of course any good criminal knows how to work their Google searches & set plans in motion.

Best plan is to go and try and live remotely (with plenty of security). An odd combo, I know. But they will find you ...

Yeah, I agree. Hey, I think I would want to be anonymous. I best quiet money is the best money, some of my relatives wouldn't even know.

They do raffles in the church all the time. As well as bingo.

Exactly. When it comes to finances / wealth, the less people that know ... the better.

Depending on the state you have no choice but to be broadcasted as a winner. Which I think is BS.

 

[theart0f69]

I had a good thread explaining a way around that too...

can't find it.

Concentrate my dude, concentrate.
