Depends on which Win-for-life game you're talking about. The Powerball version pays $1000 a week for life and payments of $13,000 (before taxes) are distributed quarterly.

I wouldn't tell my boss to take this job and shove it , but the added income would certainly make life easier for almost anyone.

I guess it would all depend on how much money I would receive after taxes.

something else i'll like to see pass or accomplish but i can't do it myself is: the Raptor fighter plane lotto...So that the USA in 20 years have 96,000 raptors fighter planes...I'll like to know who is going to mess with you with that many planes...Why i want that? Because i want to prevent world war3 and world war 4...When people see that you are serious they will think twice of going to war....

First, apology for an outburst.

There's no set-for-life game in California. I don't know why. More than 10 years ago they had this $1000 a week for life game, but it was quickly gone. I think it would be nice to have NY-style $5000-a-week for life game in California.

If there's such a game in CA and if I won, I'd set up several accounts including an IRA. Yeah, not a good idea but I am being optimistic. And I will save 50% of the weekly check so that I can buy a house after a few years.... [ More ]

Pay my tithes. Pay my taxes. Bank some. Give some away. Spend on paying off some bills. Pay up some bills. Spoil the kiddies. Spoil myself and make sure I spend and enjoy as much as I can before I die.

How they pay Win For Life is these either send you a check or deposit one in your checking account every 4 months I believe..They take out the taxes so that is supossed to be taken care of right up front..After I hit it..:)..I'll let you know for sure how it's done..Good luck..

SmoothJuice — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 01:53:32 GMT

Let's say you won the Win-for-life games. What would you do, how would you spend it and what method of spendings would you do?

For example, If i won, I would:

-Save 1/2 of each paycheck into a savings account, stocks, retirement.

-Save partial until I can afford a $30,000 car

-Save for a downpayment on a home.

-Finish School

-Not get married

-Travel all around the US/Canada with my $30,000 car.

-And of course, give Uncle Sam some mandatory donations
