Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
That's a stupid question. There are two problems with your nonsensical query: 1) that isn't current tax law 2) very few people can choose how much money they make in a year, especially with such a huge difference like that. And with the lottery, you certainly don't to choose how much you win. It is very easy to avoid paying taxes on lottery wins. Have a winning ticket? Burn it! There, problem solved. But how many people are really that stupid, that they would turn down a large a

$1.7 BILLION: Powerball jackpot juggernaut keeps rollingReply
Not really. You only have so many drawings to hit a lottery. You absolutely have to at least cover every one with at least one ticket. This worrying about what the jackpot is secondary in importance. Budget smudget. You are attempting to take something down here. You feel good when those tickets are in your pocket. You have a chance now in a world where there aren't that many anymore.

I guess they would have liked paying 70% in taxes like back in 1980. Since I'm not a moron, I'd love to have paid taxes in the 70% bracket. To do that I'd have needed taxable income of more than $215,400, which is equivalent to about 844k today. Also because I'm not a moron I know that I'd only have paid 70% on the taxable income in excess of that 844k (in today's dollars). Still, even if I'd had to pay 70% on all of that, I'd still have had the equivalent of 253k after taxes, plus whatever

l asked my Ai very important question Good morning l have a good question. The Powerball jackpot is now $1,700,000,000 nobody won last night. So what will happen if the jackpot grows out of control to $5,000,000,000 curious Good morning! That's an excellent and fascinating question. The idea of a $5 billion Powerball jackpot is mind-boggling and pushes the limits of the lottery system itself. Here s a breakdown of what would likely happen if the jackpot grew to such an astronomical

You wouldn't be saying that if you won. There are some countries that do not tax lottery winnings. Unfortunately we are not one of them.

Those are people who have figured out a way to buy enough tickets to win a jackpot in a game in which the progressive jackpot is high enough to justify the investment (the Massachusetts roll-down, the TX lottery recently). They had no idea what the winning numbers would be nor did they waste any time trying to predict it (since that's not possible). Just buy as many tickets as possible to cover all the possible number combinations.

Hmm, play a lottery with a single ball 10 outcome where every player is a winner? Follow that with unicorns, pixie dust and abolition of death and taxes!

Of course the system would not know if you picked the numbers 1-2-3-4-5-6. You definitely would not get much money if by some miracle the numbers hit because about 10K people a day play 1-2-3-4-5-6. This reminds me of the TV show Lost. When the fans of that show played Hurley's lottery numbers of 4-8-15-16-23-42 in the ($355M) Mega Millions drawing in 2011 and hit 4 out of the 6 numbers and 26K people won $150.
