Yep! Good luck to all of you. Just don't forget if you win, I'm your long lost son.

got 10 ticket and waiting to see what happens. 

Can you get these in New Jersey?

 

If I win BTW I'm going to keep working in the mail room at Phenortner Enterprises. We create education policy that encourages disadvantaged youth to teach one another by learning from themselves.

Yes, Powerball is available in NJ.

I have tickets on my own, a pool at work and a pool of nj gun owners on Facebook.

been throwing 10 bucks at each drawing....nothing I will miss and dont every play nor will i continue to.

Youse guys are wasting your money. I got the winning today yesterday.

I would get a Jersey license to carry a handgun. And send some politician somewhere in the western hemisphere a real meatball parm sandwich (with pepperoni and goot) the size of the oscar mayer hot dog truck.

I'd buy the Governor's office, or maybe a few politicians....

For sure.  

They said it's like $450 million after taxes. That would buy a lot of lottery tickets.

You don't have to, Corzine made sure of that before he left office,  sliding scale state tax that peakes at 10.8% on all lottery winnings over $599.50.  Highest of all the states that are in Powerball.

 

So lets add it up 39.6 for the Feds and 10.8 for NJ equals 50.4.  They'll get more than you do!  Plus their share of the pot.  I wanna play for their team.

Yikes - just saw that... Sliding scale - max is 10.80%...  

Rule of thumb. You will get 1/3 after taxes assuming you play cash payout. $1.5b = $500mil take home.

I'm in.

That's pretty close. We did the math at work, came out to ~503

Invest the 500mil at 5% a year. Spend $68,500 per day /365 days a year for the rest of your life and never even touch the principal...

There's room for all kinds at the Mipa Ranch.

I'm sure Lamar Odom can clue you in on some of the finer points.

I had one number on 3 out of 15. I hope someone wins so I can stop buying them.
