This guy cleared nearly a full billion.

No, he didn't. He got a cash payout of one billion, but he also owes Federal income taxes on that one billion. Pretty much all of it at 37%, so he really cleared around 630 million. Still a lot, but a bit less impressive.

And he’s already spent about $100 million of that, in just one year.

Organizers could spread that billion among 1000 winners.
