Everyone keep calling the record jackpot winner a billionaire and he's not. After winning the 2.034 Billion he ended up with $400 something million after taxes and everything and that great but in reality he's not a billionaire.

$1.1 BILLION: Powerball jackpot increased in longest-ever winless streakReply
What would really be great would be, if you won the jackpot and it was totally tax free. Then you would actually win a billion dollars. Instead of the $589,789,394 you end up with after Fed and state taxes after 30 years, or the $269,361,980 you end up with after taxes if you take the cash.

$1.7 BILLION: Powerball jackpot juggernaut keeps rollingReply
I don't approve of lottery pools at work for many reasons. Maybe you run yours efficiently although I doubt it. For one thing you have too many people in it.
