"What about one of those big checks?! I want one of them!"

"I don't have any checks to give..."

LMAO.

And it ain't 800 million fool. It's like 462 or something after tax and the cut they take for taking the lump sum.

This is why people go bankrupt after winning.

It is, but they only withhold 25% from the distribution. The winner would be responsible for paying more in taxes than what is withheld.

They drop you off with a big brief case of 800 million in cash in the 9th ward, and you have to fight your way out. If and only if you make it out, you can bring it to a bank

I'm not sure, but considering the $528M you'd receive after taxes in LA, you better not frick around. Considering you can easily get 3% on treasuries, you're missing out on $1,800 of interest per hour that you wait.

Those federal and state tax withholdings seem to be off. I can't imagine the annuity has a cost basis or gets any preferable tax treatment on the payouts that would result in the 25% tax bracket.
