$640 million, $462 million lump sum, minus 25% for Uncle Sam and 6.5% for the Connecticut governor. That still leaves about $316.5 million!!!!!!

Just for fun, I did some calculations. If the odds are 175 million to one to win this, as they say, and you allowed 3 feet for each person in line to buy a ticket, the line would extend over 11 thousand miles!! Kind of puts the chances of winning in perspective!

Uncle Sam will take 42%!!!!
Federal Income Tax for $201,000.00 and above is 42% with no deductions.
Any money earned on Stock Market is call Capital Gains and is only taxed at 20%.
