Wow----that is a LOT of tax being withheld.

That isn’t tax, it’s the cash option. They still tax the 274 million

That isn't the taxes....the 274 will be taxed at least 50%

I think that is the real jackpot amount. The higher number is over a bunch of years.

That is before federal tax. The is the cash option. Rule of thumb is you get 1/3 of advertised jackpot, if you take the cash option.

But the 1% ers don’t pay taxes.

The difference between the stated jackpot and cash option is not due to taxes. As a matter of fact , taxes has nothing to do with it.

The cash option is figured to be the present value of the of the income stream of the stated jackpot in equal payments over 20 years.

In other words 274 million dollars today is worth 458 million dollars paid over twenty years.

You won $2!

You won $2!

And now I still have a chance at $502 million. However very, very, very slight that chance might be. Wahoo!

With the Powerball so high, how great would it be for a UPS'er to win?
