MegaMillions advertised annuity
Ladies, Gentlemen:
Please see the copied spreadsheet below. Should anyone be interested in obtaining the Excel Spreadsheet, I will be glad to pass it along. It uses the following basic assumptions:
Annuity Payout per year: $38,500 times the number of millions won
Cash value at approximately 50% (PB is usually around 47-48%)
Average investment rate of return: 8%
Tax rate at 45% (includes 35% of federal, and roughly 10% for state, no deductions assumed as your income would be abo

Close Encounter guys!!
I think it takes 6 months to a year to establish residency in NJ. The powerball ticket expires before then.But that doesn't matter, NJ doesn't take out taxes on lottery winnings only if you are a resident of NJ and win a NJ lottery. If you buy a ticket in RI they will take taxes off the top before you see the check. You can get credit towards your MA taxes from the taxes you paid to RI. But if MA taxes are higher you will pay more. Quote: Originally posted by gary on December 08, 2002I have anot

Expected Return
Well that may be the key to the discrepancy, Jake, and my calculation that the MegaMillions right now has a slightly favorable expectation value. I don't factor in taxes. People of course pay taxes on all kinds of income and usually report their earnings before taxes when asked How much do you make? They do this on stock valuations as well. So it seems to me that the calculation of a return on the ticket should be a before tax, rather than after tax calculation. It is worth noting tha

PB 320Million$... how does one(JP winner) get the money anyway??
The feds take 25% up front before you ever get any money from a jackpot. You might need to pay more when you file your taxes depending on what kind of measures you take to avoid paying taxes ( avoiding taxes is legal, evading taxes is illegal). Another good reason to have a good accountant working with you. Accountants and lawyers are licensed by the state and you can check them out with the state licensing board. They also are required to state their fees up front - and give you a written contr

84 Year Old Wins $40M FL Lottery
Mmmm, I remember my grandmother had stopped paying income taxes after she turned 72. It's not like she didn't file or anything like that (which she did) it's just she didn't owe any taxes on what she had earned from the royalty checks she received from the gas oil wells on her land. That's also not including her retirement checks from her job and her social security checks! Heck man she was earning over 50K a year from all sources put together. To bad she was only able not to pay taxes for 3 y

PLEASE HELP - regarding tax and lottories
lola23,I'm interested to learn why the tax issue is so important to you.To answer your question, UK Lotto, Euro Millions, and El Gordo (as offered by the services on the left side of the page) do not have taxes withheld. That's because they are bought in the UK and Spain, which do not subtract taxes from lottery prizes.That is not to say that your particular country will not withhold taxes if you bring the money into your country.The US lotteries would have US government taxes withheld - normal

Mega Millions - State Matters
Quote: Originally posted by PrisonerSix on April 10, 2005Quote: Originally posted by DoctorEw220 on April 9, 2005 remember that if you are from out of state, and you win the jackpot in a state that doesn't tax its residents if they win, you will still have to pay state taxes. it's a weird rule.From what I understand about state income taxes, you have to pay based on the state in which you reside. In other words if you win in a state with no income tax and you live in a state that has income tax,

Lottery withholds 25 percent for federal taxes in accordance with federal regulations. A deductio
