That's why you don't announce if you win or they don't announce the winner if somebody wins, but how are we going to know that they did not keep the money and there's really a true winner?

True

that line over there is always far.

If I win every BMR contributor gets 2500

Draw day

How much would you get after taxes? I'm thinking around 500 million or so. Would you take the lump sum or the payments? Me personally I would probably just take the lump sum this way I can invest some of the money

Only 500 mill? I probably won’t even play then

Here is the list of all states take home pay with lump sum or annuities.

Daggers I thought of what I could buy with 309m and I could only get to like 30m, all cash purchases too

Cuddler, you can buy more powerball tickets with the rest of the money.

He’s just saying that your life is ruined if you win once. But if you win twice, you could turn your life back around..
