MOAR... moar people sign up! It'd be awesome to crack $1000 on the pool (so, 100 people). 500 entries... not too shabby. Let's do it!
If you divide it up evenly among 100 ATOTers that's 4.65 million a piece. Not really a huge amount anymore but not bad.
Yeah, for real!Not really huge?? 4.5 million IS A LOT!! That's 45 years of salary for someone who makes 100k a year. If you manage your money wisely, you don't have to work anymore. I'll take it :thumbsup:
I'm in. This is my first lottery purchase.
so ~60 people in so far.
if we win the $1M 2nd place prize, then it's only $16,667/person before tax.
not FU $, but a nice return on $10
At Colker's Union Oil 76 station in Beverly Hills, the flow of traffic has been "crazy," employee Rosie Perez said. On Saturday, she said, they weren't selling gas because the pumps were blocked by people who came to purchase tickets. There has been a mix of customers coming to the station, Perez said. Some are middle class, others are wealthy.
"They buy from one [ticket] to $1,000, $2,000, $3,000," Perez said.
Sometimes, she said, people send their housekeeper or gardener to buy them a ticket.
An "overwhelming" number of wealthy buyers have flocked to the Rite-Aid in Beverly Hills, one worker said, with some customers purchasing thousands of dollars worth of tickets. Their expensive purses, shoes and tailored suits provide sharp clues that they are not among L.A.'s blue-collar workers.
So what does each ATOTer get if you win?
It's 1.5B annuity but 930million cash value. Tax is about what say 40%? Then state tax another 8%? So you're left with a little over a half. Half of 930 is 450+15= 465 million. If you divide it up evenly among 100 ATOTers that's 4.65 million a piece. Not really a huge amount anymore but not bad.
Vivi, what happens if someone under 18 sends you money?
depends.
If it goes to Vivi then the split...then very likely no problem
If it is split at once, at the beginning, which seems possible and is better taxwise?, then that could be a problem....or someone agree to share with the 18 year old then just write a cheque...though that is another tax issue, if I am not mistaken.
They get to pay income tax like everyone else. People under 18 can earn wages. My 14 yo will get the pleasure of filling out his taxes this year if he wants his refund. Intentionally had him file single and 0.Vivi, what happens if someone under 18 sends you money?
