Since it hasn't come up for me I haven't gotten an authoritative opinion on the matter.

But the IRS rule as I've read it is that I could deduct up to half of adjusted gross income

for qualified charitable donations.

So taking cash value of $250,000,000 which should be also adjusted gross income,

you can give 1/2 of that and deduct it.

Essentially the result is I'd be giving about 35% to charity instead of 35% to the government as

federal income tax.

You may deduct a maximum... [ More ]

Probably the one thing I'd do that might seem odd to others is to (at my advanced age) get braces on my teeth again. I had my teeth straightened once decades ago, but they have become crooked again. I'm still toying with the idea of doing it, but at my age have been wrestling with the idea of spending $5000 for what few years I may have left. With a jackpot win, or even a win over $25,000, I'd probably go ahead and do it.

I hope you are aware there is a cap on how much you can deduct through donations...you might want to consult an accountant before you make such a foolhardy move. I would never donate merely for the tax savings since for every dollar you donate, you only save 35 cents. I would be happy with the other 65 cents per dollar still in my pocket.
