cr47t Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 so the powerball jackpot/earnable cash max/whatever is at around 1b dollars right now, more or less.Discuss this + what you would do with the cash if you had all of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 The only way to win is to not play. That being said, if I had that much cash, I would get rid of and/or diversify as much of it as possible as fast as possible and try to hide that I won. Winning the lottery usually ruins your life.

Sander Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Winning the lottery usually ruins your life. I'm pretty sure that'll only happen if you allow it to ruin your life. Also, this: http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-powerball-idUSKCN0UR2KD20160114 So each winner gets approx $528.8 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Dunno about you guys, but where I come from, the biggest lottery prize always ends up with the government. (the prize goes to a random 3rd party that gets a bonification and hands over the money back to the deputies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VCR_CAT Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 It's a business built upon losers; that should say enough about playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aix Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 [spoiler=the news rn in a nutshell] The only way to win is to not play. That being said, if I had that much cash, I would get rid of and/or diversify as much of it as possible as fast as possible and try to hide that I won. Winning the lottery usually ruins your life.What happens exactly when people know? Do a bunch of mafia show up your door to tell you to fork it over?

LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 I would give a decent chunk of it to various family members, and then buy a decent house and spend a very small portion on things I want to own, and then sit on the money the rest of my life, giving to charity periodically and such things, while writing in peace.
