Virginia: 1/1 - 1/31/2016Reply
Hey increase, good job with 000! Hope you monetized that prediction. Your stuff has a funny way of showing up mid-month. I even had it in my notes to check in with your list tomorrow or Suday at the latest.

Now that the dust has settled on the Powerball jackpot. .Reply
mmmmmm, JoshUK, I would have to say no for the jackpot to increase any faster. I think some people are burnt out on seeing the same places hitting the jackpots. Another large jackpot will go to New York, Florida, Ca. or Texas.

$1.5 BILLION: Wednesday Powerball record jackpot still risingReply
It doesn't look like there will be a mid-day jackpot increase today, but the final jackpot tally announced this evening could certainly be more than $1.5 billion. If there is no Powerball jackpot winner tonight, Saturday's estimated jackpot will be $2 BILLION with a cash option of $1.24 BILLION.

$1.5 BILLION: Wednesday Powerball record jackpot still risingReply
Funny how so many only focus on the potentially negative and taxes, even though the chances of of things happening is minuscule. Not to mention you should already have more money than you will ever need after a year and on anyway unless you are a complete idiot. Chances are you will get every payment as it is shown with a 5% increase every year. I don't give a crap about the taxes, I am thinking about how much money I will have after them regardless of what method I take. The PB is not going to

Don't know if you got a reply but only the cash option locks you in to what the taxes are now. Annuities are subject to any changes in tax laws. You can expect that taxes will continue on their upward trajectory on federal and state levels. Actually, there doesn't even have to be a federal increase for you to pay more. Doesn't even have to be a statewide tax. Just has to be a tax on lottery winnings as one state has already done recently. Annuities always fall within that snare.

With the just-announced increase, Ohio's first-year annuity payment is $14,961,126. Ends at year 30 at $61,582,026. Not all that concerned with future tax rates.

Are you ready for the attention?Reply
You can find an annuity schedule (for the last drawing, but it's easy enough to adjust in a spreadsheet), along with some other interesting info on the TX lottery website. It agrees with the 5% annual increase, with the related math checking out. http://www.txlottery.org/export/sites/lottery/Documents/jackpotestimates/pb20160109.pdf

You're ignoring the fact that we're currently already more than 1/3 of the way there, and perhaps you're also forgetting that the odds of a roll on the drawing that brings it to (or past) $2.69 billion aren't part of the probability (though it certainly may affect the number of winners we finally get). If sales for this drawing increase by just 5% we'll see a jump of $442 million and sales of 463 million tickets. Do it 2 more times and the jackpot will roll from $2.275 billion, and a comparat
