Any lawyers in the house?

I'll need you when I win the Powerball jackpot tonight!

The lottery is THE biggest scam the government plays on us poor souls. When it starts the big pitch is for "we'll use the money to improve schools!"

I don't see a big improvement in any schools, and no improvements that were attributed to "lottery money"

that being said, if I won the $340MM i'ld give at least 10% to the local schools just to show the gov't up... lying bastards. (and i don't even have kids! but i do have 2 relatives who are NYC school teachers)

It is a regressive tax, plain and simple.

That being said, when you win, I'll help you write the trusts for the kids, the grandkids, the 100 relatives you didn't know you had, set up the non-profit foundation, get you the life insurance you will undoubtedly need to keep the government from getting half of your winnings once you are dead, and I'll take the X off your hands when you go out and buy the Maybach and the used Enzo!
