    How much do you actually get after taxes?
    I am thinking it is like %30-35 to taxes. Right now the cash option is $137,800,000. So, if it is %35 you are still going to clear $89.5 million.
    $89.5 million....

    i might even quit my job if i won that much..............
    You only get $38k a year unless you pick the cash option, from what I understand.
    I'll wait for an angel, but won't hold my breath

    That is incorrect. If you pick the annual payment option instead of the cash option, you will get $8,153,846 per year for 26 years. Before taxes of course and assuming the $212 million jackpot.

    I have two pet peeves that are lottery related.....one is when people explain for a frickin hour all that they would do with the money if they ever won...people spend WAY too much time thinking about that! Then everyone feels like they should say what THEY would do. unless you're letting me know my cut, I don't give a fuck how you'd spend it.
    The other is the people that wouldn't quit their jobs....'I'd be bored'. :?
    How could you be bored with unlimited resources? I could spend the rest of my life on golf courses and strippers and not be bored....why would I want to sit at a desk for 9 hrs a day?

    oh, and the asswipe checking 18000 old tickets at 6AM at the Sev when you're late and trying to get a cup o' coffee...hate him too :twisted:

    sorry, carry on :D
