$1.4 BILLION: Powerball jackpot juggernaut keeps rollingReply
A winner who chooses the cash option would receive a lump-sum $643.7 million more than a half-billion dollars in cash! -- more than a half-billion dollars in cash! Well yes, but not really. Not after Uncle Sam takes his 37% cut. The 24% withholding would knock it down to a hair over $489 million, so you wouldn't even see a check for half a billion and be able to have that much in the bank for an afternoon. Another $14.4 million would let you at least handle a (fake, giant) check for hal

$1.58 billion Mega Millions lottery winner has two weeks left to claim cash optionReply
G5...... If they are reasonably keen on being silent, they might have contacted Lottery Lawyer Kurt D Panouses down in Indiatlantic, FL. https://www.panouseslaw.com/ His site does show 4 trusts that he represented including the Nickel 95 trust back in 2016. With that sized jackpot getting $15 Million on the first annuity payout(after taxes) ain't too shabby.

$1.55 BILLION: Biggest Mega Millions jackpot ever to be drawn TuesdayReply
Why do so many talk about the billion jackpot amount so much? You have to win it first...I don't care if it is 1 trillion ..advertising annuity jackpot amount is part of their bag of tricks...no one gets that amount so why even mention it..advertise the cash only and leave it at that..

This is a bad game odds/payouts. It wil

$910 MILLION: Mega Millions lottery jackpot making another historic runReply
Well it's on the internet so it must be true! Ask that Jason Kurkland lottery lawyer guy, I bet he will tell you that you don't have to pay any taxes... I'd be stunned if I won the Michigan lottery and then moved to a state with no income tax and Michigan didn't want to tax the annuity payments paid by Michigan...that just does not make any sense...
