Posted January 14, 2016 The lump sum is more like 660M USD. After federal taxes which is around 40%, it gets even worse with installed payments. Still a lot of money though, I would build the most stupid powerful PC, buy a nice car, and invest most of the rest. I'd live off a couple million.

Posted January 14, 2016 I think there's been about 5 threads asking this today. You have to pay taxes on lottery wins in the US? That sucks. You get the full amount here in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 14, 2016 I would invest half the money in a high return mutual fund and the rest of the money I would start a game studio that puts PC Gamers first. We would have a sick studio with a bunch of test benches with all sorts of GPUs and I would hire the best programmers and artists to design the games. Our games would have none of that day one BS because we would actually play them before we shipped them out lol.
