>>50651056
cope

>>50651063
they don't even get half after taxes and shit, probably something like 300M after everything, still good money

>>50651079
they get 780MM . don't cope, you're ugly when you're coping.

>>50651063
>1.28b thats a lot of money for a normie
this is why society is fucked. surely nothing will go wrong with giving some random guy 600 million dollars. surely he will spend it wisely

>>50651056
Correct, poor people completely clueless about probability

>it's a nig
>he spends it within a year
>or gets killed

and all that money goes back to the State

to be real for a moment it better not have been a nigger

>one single person from Illinois wins
LMAO shits rigged for sure. Illinois can’t even pay out it’s own state lottery winners, most corrupt state in the union

>>50651056
It's basically a feel good ticket for poor people. A ticket to be able to daydream for a moment or two.

You buy the damn lottery ticket and just for a few seconds you genuinely imagine how good would it be if all your problems are now solved, as if any amount of money can ever solve all your issues. They buy the ticket for the feeling more than the money itself, you give a few bucks to get a dopamine hit and that's it, like any other drug.

The majority of the most corrupt families come from there or were educated there. That's where nigger obama was educated. The Clintons are pretty much from that shithole of a state.

>>50651043
It was me. I won! So...what coins should I invest in?

>>50651098
jfc 780 mil, even if you live until 100 yo that's 7.8 mil every single year

or more than $600k every month

>>50651138
delaware exists

What would you do with the money? Would you return to your job? Pick up a part time job for fun? I think it could be pretty based to work a few hours a week at a low stress job like a grocery store bagger/cart collector and mack on college age girls. Guaranteed pussy when they realize you're rich as shit. Obviously never tell them you won the lottery.

>>50651172
that's just the instant cash out (most popular option)

alternatively they can choose to receive the entire 1.337 billion (pre-tax) over the course of 30 years, roughly 42 million a year.

>>50651218
would probably keep my job and just live very well.

>>50651218
I'm so depressed by your small dreams

>single winner from Illinois buys up memecoins seconds after winning 1.28bn
>says his LUNC and DOGE and RUBIC make it stacks are 400 million each.

>>50651132
That could have been me
They would have made a Netflix special about my dramatic flame out

>>50651133
YOU
HAVE
NOOOOO
IDEA

>>50651249
You're not depressed by his dreams, you're depressed because you're jealous that he needs less.

>>50651238
not worth it, opportunity cost in investments will cause you to lose far more over time, and taxes for high income brackets are only going to increase as this government goes broke. Even assuming the income tax rates stay the same, you're still well above the 40% tax bracket anyways. Would hardly make a difference.

That 780MM isn't after-tax, that's the lump-sum, that's the amount that gets taxed. They were talking about this on the radio, the anon guessing 300ish is right. I think they said it comes out so like 360 or so.
That's still generational wealth enough to do anything I could even think of doing in my next five lifetimes, but don't be naive either, it's Illinois of all places. They take more than half.

i bought powerball tickets instead of megamillions...

>1 in a million wins
>the rest just buy tickets like a bunch of sucker
>it’s not a tax on stupidity because.. just because
getting tired of those mongoloids in here

>>50651218
Imaging working some job or whatever stress-free since you don't care if you ever get fired, and using it to look for a girl. Then you can test if they're a keeper by seeing if they're nice to you while you appear broke as shit, until you finally reveal you live in a mansion servants when you decide to take her home for the first time.

>>50651572
>t. bluepilled beta dreaming about (((love)))
no wonder this board is dead

>>50651572
Don’t rush it.
Take her to see your parents first.
The modest mansion you got them with just a few servants.
Bonus points if your parents are young and look like they won’t kick the bucket for 50 years.

>>50651565
It's a joke. No one here is buying lottery tickets, just shitcoins.
>>50651154
And this is the exact reason poor normies buy lottery tickets.

The winner was Obama's son.

>>50651565
>shifting the goalposts
Well is it a tax on being dumb or a tax on being poor? Unless you're championing for the impoverished by calling them all retards that shouldn't have any agency so you can make decisions for them.

>>50651252
Here's your (You)
