If God had meant for us to fly over oceans then we would have wings and inflatable butts. Wait... just the wings then.
well in the same vein, if god had meant for us to drive, he would have given us wheels instead of legs, but i bet you still drive all over carne...
flying is a super safe mode of transportation carne, but you know this already... i love travelling..

If you win the money and take it all as a lump sum how does that work? How much do you walk away with after taxes and the lotteries take?

i'm no expert that's for sure, but i'd think it's at least half of what you'd get if you were to wait it out easily, and that's before taxes even..

I thought I heard once that if you win you definitely should take it all at once cause if you do the payment plan thing and you die that money does not get passed on to your heirs. Is that true?

Hell no I'm going to a good neighborhood, maybe Castro valley or something like that. I wouldn't dare take that ticket to any liquor stores in Oakland haha

I think you can go to the lottery board. Isn't there a way to do it anonymously? I know in todays culture everyone wants their 15 minutes of fame but I wouldn't want anyone knowing that I won.

I'd take the money and do everything in my power to get the Kardashian sisters off TV forever.

You can set up a blind trust but that has it's problems. But the blind trust is the only way I know of to claim your winnings anonymously... or live in Delaware.

From what I've read that the people involved have to be identified. That was part of setting up the multi-state lottery to keep it honest. You can have your holdings in a trust but the people involved must be indentified, but they do not have to have their picture displayed.

At least that was how it used to be.

That brings up another interesting question. Would you continue to work or start a company and work for yourself? I mean, you always see these guys who win saying they will be at work on Monday. Fuck that...I'm never working a day in my life again.
