Inzombiac posted:One Billion Dollars (yes I know you're looking at a quarter of that once everyone takes their cut) is such an obscene amount of money. Except what ends up happening is the redneck that wins buys a $50M super mansion, a $20M plane, like 30 $1M homes for their family and friends, a poo poo ton of cars and eventually it's all gone in less than 5 years.

When I win I'm going to take the multiple payments instead of the lump sum.

We're into, "This season's must have: Kidnap & Ransom Insurance," territory here. I'm not even sure I want to win. Three Olives, if I do, can I hire you for a nouveau riche orienteering course? I don't want to use the wrong fork or get murdered.

I won £25 in the lottery yesterday going after the £50 million prize. I took that £25 and bought two tickets a week for the next three weeks. I won't win, but I might!

So with about $400 million dollars do you think its feasible for me to buy an island, arm a military, declare myself an independent nation, and declare war on ISIS? And also Portugal.

With federal income tax, you're looking at ~$262,136,000 (less applicable state inc. tax) But don't worry, assuming 8%/year, you could clear a billion in less than two decades

You could do the old "no sale" trick when people buy stuff you have memorized and use the pocketed money to buy ALL the lotto tickets!

If you're buying like a day of hope with each ticket I think you'd probably be better off funneling that money into your booze/drugs budget instead
