deuces wild Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=206...hg&refer=us$370 million jackpot. If no one wins tonight the jackpot will go over 1/2 Billion USD.I purchased 5 tickets even knowing my odds of winning are 176 million to 1.............but they are zero if I did not play.

Gandalph Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 Good luck DW. Let us know how you get on after the draw. I had three numbers come up on the National Lottery over here on Saturday night. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Will you have to pay tax on your winnings? Over her the amount declared as won is what you actually collect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deuces wild Posted March 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Well we did not win. :0 Yes, tax must be paid.......if electing to take a lump sum payment the $370M is reduced to around $170M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
