If they want to politicize the lotto, maybe they should mention how many minutes it takes the government to spend the mega millions or that 32,000 mega millions would be needed to pay off the national debt.

Yes I figured the article was about that. I just spent an hour in the salon and CNN was on. It is a channel for retards. They were making jokes out what Obama promised the Russians and the rest of the news was about the stupid lottery. You would never know our country is in it's demise.

” but after various taxes, no cash payout has ever topped his wealth. Tonights cash option of an estimated $398.8 million “
Not only is the article very biased, but it is also written in ignorance. The cash option is pre-tax.....The $398.8 mentioned will still be taxxed as income by th estate and feds!

Those that apply to this multi-state lottery, or just for the California lottery?

For cheap shots and envy of those who work hard for their money you don’t have to look further than this website. Unfortunately.

Was working near a state that sells them, and bought a few yesterday (never buy them, but what the hell). If I win, I will pay off both of my houses. But otherwise my lifestyle will change little, I have all I need. I will however make high profile donations to any group liberals hate.

Multistate lotteries are California income tax exempt if the ticket was bought through the California Lottery system.
