That haven't said who is the winner yet. It was sold in West Lincoln, I doubt any NU coaches would have been out that way.

A guy named Warren Buffet, perhaps you've heard of him.

After a few years in Washington, I thought it would be Dr. Tom.;)

Yeah, great singer. I didn't know he lived in Nebraska though.

just saying.

After you call your atorney and tax guy. Have a plan before the beggers arrive.

The news tonight said he'd get about 120 million in the cash payout after taxes etc. Not shabby, but only about 1/3 of the 365 million jackpot. I thought it would be more like 40-50%.

I'm guessing when you take the cash payout vs. the annuity thing it reduces the overall total.

Cash payouts usually are 55% of the total which would be paid over the years.
Then they have to hold out 30% of that for taxes.

I could probably still get by on $120 mil.

30% for taxes is crazy.
I'm guessin' you'd still have to pay taxes on any interest you earned?

350 Million puts you in a tax bracket a bit above your normal 20% level.
ahh, the price you have to pay to be rich.

That's why investin' is for suckas. Blow it all on hookers and booze and you're golden.

If your tax man is good enough - yes. :texan:
Looks like there's a few job openings down at the meat processing plant....

I believe they will, yes. One of them said he had been retired for four days now.

I would bet that plant will close in the near future anyway, as it has been sold to Smithfield, how has a much larger operation down the road in Crete, NE already.
