How quickly will the money disappear? Keeping this house up will cost a pretty penny. Paying for staff and upkeep. Taxes too.

Income tax on that lump sum distro probably close to $490 million.
Can someone check my math?

Just what he needs for his recent acquisition of three cases of Night Train and M-80.

A brand new home perched on cliff in a state/city famous for earthquakes. What could go wrong? Also, earthquake insurance covers your structure. That’s maybe a $5M house on a $20M lot. He’s basically paying to have rich/famous neighbors...

What a foolish and ignorant decision. He will be flat broke, in debt, and filing bankruptcy within a year. The expenses, maintenance, and upkeep alone on such a mansion, will drain his funds very rapidly. May I assume he is also filling the garage with vehicles appropriate for his new “status”?

If a $25 million mansion is what he wants, he can have. I can’t think of anything that I would want less.

If anything, I’d want to hit the road and visit all 57 states and and 10 provinces. I’d probably split my time so that I’d visit Canada during the summer and southern states during the winter.

I wish him the best. He’s going to be a wanted man, as every grifter, scammer and flim-flam artist will be after him.

Another story recently about this jackpot

Lots of drama with this 2 Billion ticket!

Posted at 8:55 AM, Mar 07, 2023 and last updated 2023-03-07

Attorneys for man claiming Powerball jackpot identify alleged ticket thief

ALHAMBRA, Calif. (CNS) - Attorneys for a man suing the California State Lottery Commission, alleging he is the rightful winner of the record-breaking $2.04 billion Powerball jackpot in November, have filed new court papers identifying the man they allege stole the winning ticket from their client.

In a lawsuit brought Feb. 22 in Alhambra Superior Court, plaintiff Jose Rivera maintains he bought the victorious ticket at Joe’s Service Center in Altadena the day before the Nov. 8 drawing, but that it was stolen by someone identified only as “Reggie,” a co-defendant in the suit, on the same day.

In court papers filed Monday, Rivera’s lawyers identified “Reggie” as Urachi F. Romero, who could not be immediately reached for comment.

Rivera asked Romero numerous times to return the ticket, but he refused, telling that plaintiff among other things that the two could split the winnings if he found the ticket, according to the suit, which further states that Rivera refused to be blackmailed and reported the alleged theft to the commission and to law enforcement.

State officials have denied Rivera’s claim that he is the lottery winner, insisting that Edwin Castro, also a defendant in the suit, is the proper winner as announced on Feb. 14.

If I won $2 billion I'd give all but $15 million to charities devoted to serving the poor of Africa and Asia and to cancer and heart disease research.Half of what I kept would be given to various family members. The other half would buy a small condo/co-op near Central Park in Manhattan...a fairly nice condo in or near Sarasota...and a comfy place in (tax free) New Hampshire.I'd eat sirloin regularly and drive a late model German car.

If I was going to spend $25 million on a house it would be in the middle of several hundred acres of land.

It’s a party-type house, not a “home”.

Whatever, it’s his money.
