That I am. Seems to be anywhere from 30% - 45% tax on big million dollar winnings.
I've never see something with a 400+ million cash pay out so....

[Steve Dallas]

It's up to 640 million now.

Oh, and Federal taxes on amounts that large is 35%. State might take something too, depending on the state.

i never spend more than a dollar. i've seen people spend $20, i even saw someone spend about $40 one time. idiotic.

With the odds of winning at millions and millions, you really have about as much chance of winning WITH OR WITHOUT a ticket!!!!!

If they have the money I don't see why it is idiotic
Just like saying someone buying LT Headers is Idiotic..... or a CAI....

the way I always put it is this:

if you don't enter, you won't win.

if you DO enter.. you PROBABLY won't win.

Is a few bucks worth a PROBABLY for $500 mil?

yes... yes it is.

I heard this morning you're more likely to be ordained a saint than to win this.

I guess my holiday will be celebrated with pizza or something.. since patrick already has alcohol..

I sure hope who ever wins does something "GOOD" with the money would love to see people who are in need get helped.

I'm pretty sure teh $462 cash out option already has the taxes figured in.

I was reading in the news today that someone spent 2500 bucks on tickets.

Also, if you went and bought every possible combination, would would profit off the winnings. As long as no-one else won as well.
