Did you know? New BONUS for missing a record Powerball jackpot by only the powerball.
I saw this on the Powerball website today and it's the first I've seen of it. It's a new rule that basically says that the Powerball jackpot can't increase by more than $25 million each draw once it hits record levels, so if the powerball jackpot does that, the extra prize money will go into a poll that will be split by all the 5 white ball winners on the day the jackpot is won. So, it's like, CRAP, the record jackpot got won today. I know I won my $200,000, but I chose the wrong Powerball. O

everyone wants a lump sum butReply
I said they DO NOT do this for charity, hence they will take ALL they can from you. Also, did you know that in florida if you play the extra $1 or $2 dollar jackpot increase plays you can then take either the base amount and the bonus as separate prizes meaning you can take the base amount as an annuity and the bonus a lump sum, or vice versa or both.

No, the lump sum is based on current annuity values. The MegaMoney is a 20 year payout and has recently been paying about 77-78% of the jackpot. The Lotto is a 30 year payout and has been paying about 70%. Still, even with federal income tax (no FL state tax) the most you'll pay, unless there is a tax increase, is 35% and you'll have deductions. So I figure you'd clear about $3M. Anyway, you are the owner of the ticket and have to pay the taxes on the entire amount, whether or not you sell it.

End of year analysis - QPs vs Self-PicksReply
Been using both my own numbers and qp, my own numbers gives more. The most I've won with qp was 4 of 6 numbers on Win For Life, and few pick 3 box, and few pick 4 box. It require luck for both methods, however I find that when picking own numbers we increase our luck or decrease it by the numbers we pick.
