officerdibble777 Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 to nights lottery stands at $500 million. What would you do with that amount of money ? Unlike the UK lotto if you take it as a lump sum you get a reduced amount ,and you pay uncle Sam on it too .So after that you get about $350m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StuC Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Myself and a guy at worked tried to spend a big, imaginary lotto win before. I said I could blow £130m in a week. He challenged me! 3x houses @ £10m each Jet @ £25m Yacht at £20m Cars £10m Motorbikes/quads/jetskis £0.5m Maintenance on the above £3m p.a I then ran out of big ticket items and conceded it was too much to blow, but of I had the chance I'd give it a bloody good go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

955i Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 to nights lottery stands at $500 million. What would you do with that amount of money ?

Sha Bu Le Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) I would take the cheque and dance around my ex-wife loudly singing MC Hammer's 'You Can't Touch This' Don't be so sure 955i, did not a woman who had been divorced from her husband for a few years, recently chase him through the courts for a share when he won a few £M. Got awarded a share too, forget how much may have been a million or two. I would have had the lot paid into a Channel Island bank, then challenged her to find me.

Muggins. Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Think they`re taxed on it then they get it in lumps, not all in one hit. Stand to be corrected though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) Yeah I think that's right, it's to do with whether you get a certain type of settlement or not. One way the ex can get her hands on it and another way she can't.

pimpkiller Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Id just stick it in the bank, live on the interest and never have to worry about money again.

Don't know how this known as no one seems to know where she is. Now there is a question for you all, in the extremly unlikely event of winning say 100meg on the Euro would you go public?

Breastman Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 jackpot was $550m with no winner,another rollover .I'll get my tickets later,anyone else want some ? Slightly confused by this story that seems to say there are 2 winning tickets but no one has come forward to claim yet? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-20535355 In the US if no one claims in time does it keep rolling over?
