If I won I'd wait a month or so before claiming it. I'd get a good team of tax advisors and business planners to get this new shift in order, and collect the lump sum. Then I'd work on getting it in good investments, to grow that money into a billion. I'd probably try leaving myself a $500K or $1M in yearly spending money, first to pay off bills, then start investing in vacations and studying for graduate programs. I'd still like to work towards some form of embassy career, and not just as some donation patsy, like a proper ambassador abroad.

International politics has always interested me, and I wouldn't like this money to change that, just make it so the lights don't ever go off, and I'm in a place where I'm not battling roaches 24/7 (I live in Houston in an old apartment so clean or not those fuckers get in all the time, I leave traps everywhere to make sure they end up in the open and dead for me to sweep up).

I don't want a fancy car or big house. I want to make changes to the world of international relations, so we as Americans can forge better contracts and cooperations than the gilded Jewish control it is now.

After everything is said and done, after lump sum and taxes I'm getting an exact quarter billion plus 21k cash money. I plan on using 30 million right off the bat to give to family, friends and the people who sold me the ticket.

other than the obvious like lawyering up, hiring advisors, investors, moving and getting a new whip, I'm definitely going to the doctors to get checked out for possible health issues. That's about as far ahead as I've planned. I already have a couple highrise condos i'm looking into in my city and I'm getting the nicest Jacuzzi along with infinite hot water.

There's also a schizophrenic woman I've known for a couple years that I get along with well who lives across the pond but doesnt have access to proper mental health facilities. I really want to help her out. I think I might really like her, but it might be a bad idea to shack up with her.

I was at a store and a rich white women brought her kids in and bought a ticket. I heard her say that if they win they are going on a long vacation.

Made me think, what the fuck does a rich white woman need with a long vacation? Her life is already pretty much a vacation. Shit out two kids, marry rich and drive a benz. What more could you want. Apparently $700MM.

I just want to live without the burden of having to pay 70% of my income into housing, schooling and taxes. I don't even mind working, it's satisfying.

look at this frustrated retard. You have a 1/25 chance of winning double your money back. There are trending numbers and the lottery is not truly random. I buy two tickets a week, once each drawing, 8 times a month. I frequently make my money back, break even, or come out a little ahead, and sometimes lose a little. Ultimately it evens out in the long run for me, but I'm playing with a system that gives modest returns. I have no expectation of winning the jackpot, but I actually have a chance, unlike someone like you who doesn't play at all.

Lottery isn't a scam if you play responsibly. If you're buying with strategy and in moderation, you'll come to enjoy the humble thrill of turning in a handful of tickets at the end of the month for $15-$20 of leafy-greeny spendy money.
>>
Statistically 4 to 5 winning tickets will be sold for tonight's drawing. And the government is going to take about half right off the top.
If you take the cash value its only a $443 mil prize pool.

If single individuals bought all the winning tickets, supposing no group buys win, then the winners will get somewhere around $50 mil each depending on how much they get taxed.
Still a shitload of money, but its not $700 million.

>>138744050
people forget that when more people than usual buy tickets for a particular drawing the probability of having to split the jackpot increases. Look at the historically big jackpots, there were two or three winning tickets for those.

I personally think lotteries are massive money dumps as stated in 1984 to give people something to place hope and faith in.

Didn't that guy win something like $650m, took the lump sum and after taxes ended up with about $90m? I'm not saying it still isn't a large amount, but you have to look at it from the right perspective. $90m compared to $0 is huge. $90m compared to $650m is fuck all. Especially not when you take the odds into consideration then there's only one (((winner))). The odds of five numbers and the bonus are ~7,000,000/1 here. If you match five and the bonus you get ~£50,000. In other words you're getting paid 140x less than the odds you're beating. You would unironically make more money by going to the bookies and putting a £1 on predicting the five numbers and the bonus without actually buying a ticket. Obviously the bookies wouldn't pay out that amount (they don't generally pay out more than £1m), but you still see the point.
The lottery is for people who don't know anything about gambling and immediately think "it's worth it" because all they see is the prize money.
Unbelievably, Richard "Refugees Welcome" Branson tried to buy the National Lottery (our Lotto) about 20 years ago. At the time it was £1 to play and the lowest prize you could win was £10 for three numbers. He wanted to totally change the system so the prize money was more in line with the odds. Obviously you can imagine the kvetching and he was immediately shut down.

https://www.usamega.com/powerball-jackpot.asp

If one person won it all they'd end up with something in the range of $298 to $332 million, but could still owe more in taxes beyond that. You could conceivably only take home $200 million.
>>
>>138758421
With Powerball, if you take the lump sum they knock 50% right off the top. Then you have to pay taxes on the 50% you get. That takes about 30% off your winnings. So for being greedy you lose 70%.

If you take the annuity you get the 100% (unless the lottery collapses in the next 30 years) but you still have to pay taxes so figure 30% over the lifetime of the annuity. So you're getting 70% by not being greedy.

Look at this innumerate retard who thinks "making my money back' and "evening out" means "winning." You know what else you can do that will even your money out? Put it all under your mattress. You'll lose purchasing power to inflation, and there's the opportunity cost of whatever utility or profit you could have gotten if you weren't an innumerate retard, but since you evidently don't care about those things you'll be fine.

Make a trust or a will, you can't use the money when you're dead but the lottery still pays out for those 30 years whether you are alive or not.

Make it so all of that money has to be spent sterilizing Africa on your death if you're that paranoid. That way everyone wins.

FUCK

I've never heard anyone coming out as a lottery winner either. They just say "someone won the jackpot". Every. Fucking. Time.

In the US, you can contact the lottery agency and get lists of people who've won which drawing and when. There are a few where the winners may opt to remain anonymous, and some people hide behind a financial trust or dummy organizations to stay hidden but the winners always get bombarded by money-hungry leeches after winning so it's pretty easy to get the info apparently. YMMV

>>138765002
Only a couple states have laws to protect winner identity. Their pictures are usually right up on the front page of powerball.com when they win. Only exception is if a group of people or legal entity claims the prize instead of an individual.

>>138761159
>"making my money back' and "evening out" means "winning."
it literally does. When a lottery ticket has matching numbers that equate to a monetary return, you've won. Continued participation with minimal financial risk has a chance of meaningful return(in smaller $10,000 or $100,000 prizes besides the jackpot) that mattress-stuffing does not. I bet you felt real smug trying to mimic and rewrite my post, I appreciate the effort knowing that imitation is flattery sweetie ;^)

No, that isn't being an idiot.

30 years is a long time for the lottery to fold up shop, stop making payments, and then come back a year later as the NEW lottery with no payments being made for the old lottery because that went bankrupt.

I can see them jewing you hard.

Lotteries fund socialist education systems and most winners regret it within five years.

If I had 700 million dollars, I would probably make some phenomenally retarded choices that I did not intend to.

I can actually tell you all a story of a co-worker who was struck with cancer and won 2.3 million.

When she won she made the news and won her fight with cancer shortly after it was a really touching thing with all the agony she went through, winning and then the cancer leaving.

She loved her job but reduced the hours. She then bought flats for each of her kids to get them on the property ladder, bought a home for herself.

Her eldest then proposed and wanted a big wedding, bare in mind tradition is father of the bride forks out but already she was being pressured to going that extra step. So they hired a big ass venue in the country etc etc and she paid majority.

Then suddenly a hanger on who never really spoke to her suddenly went on lunch dates, hairdressers, spending time. So she started taking and paying for this new best friend to events, shows, buying her electronics...Then the new friends daughter got friendly and same thing above. Started buying things, often dropping hints.

Word was she paid off this new friends mortgage, lottery winners kids found out and told her she was being used and shouldnt be spendingmoney outside the family.

Kids start falling out with mum after they get expensive tastes. Youngest returned some presents back saying wanted nothing to do with her. Did they return the home? Fuck no. Thats what was owed to them apparently

'Bestie' fell out too, lottery winner mum didnt learn and treated 5 people to a new york holiday, limos etc.

Started buying gifts again.

Literally all the money gone, sold home and down sized, now a cleaner.

"Be careful what you wish for, cause you just might get it all."

Do you think it would be better to win the Powerball jackpot today, or the California Super Lotto, which is at the lowest possible jackpot of "7 million?" On the one hand, winning the Powerball with no other winners would make me the richest lottery winner in history, and bring about all sorts of problems stemming from having so much money, and all the attention it gets. But on the other hand, while the Super Lotto jackpot would be enough for me to live on, after taking away taxes and saving half of each annuity payment out of necessity, that just like having a meager $65k salary.

buy a large property that includes a nice large wooded area and build a small historically accurate late medieval town, with a church, a wall, and a small castle. Model it after different continental European towns and chose the best for conforming to the natural layout of the area. Rent out the houses and buildings for renters, vacationers, and businesses that abide by strict municipal ordinances

Collect it anonymously using a law firm specializing in estate law. Pretend that I won a smaller amount, spend it all, say I invested some. Watch the stock market to see when a company spikes. Say I invested in that company and cashed out. Either invest in a few companies or start a few so I can say I have a steady flow of income.

This is probably going to be a payoff for some doucehbag who steals kids or made some device.

They'll fix the numbers so that person's numbers come up. If someone else happens to get it, oh well, but they've frequently used lotteries to pay people off before. They can rig the machine without error

Yes, it's the annuity on it. Powerball, from the link above would look something like

Arizona: 5% state tax for residents
Annuity: -$1,166,667 per year (avg. net pay per year: $16,333,333; after 30 payments: $489,999,990)
Lump Sum: -$22,165,000 (net payout: $310,310,000)

Arkansas: 7% state tax
Annuity: -$1,633,333 per year (avg. net pay per year: $15,866,667; after 30 payments: $476,000,010)
Lump Sum: -$31,031,000 (net payout: $301,444,000)

California: No state tax on lottery winnings
Annuity: avg. net pay per year: $17,500,000; after 30 payments: $525,000,000
Lump Sum: net payout: $332,475,000

I wouldn't actually invest in it, just claim to so I could pretend to friends and family that I earned the money. People will act like they're owed money if you win it in the lottery, but if you earn it through hard work they're less likely to demand some of it.
