interesting to note that although $232 million seems like a ton of money, people are actually getting less over the span of the 20 year period, since the future value of that money is much less. so technically, people don't exactly receive the full amount stated as the value of money changes.

Your Dumb. How the hell does american lottery suck? the biggest jackpot ever seen in Canada was 50 something million. Which works out to be like 12 million after taxes.

or you shove all that money into a high interest rate bank .. which will make you OVER 100k a year on interest :D and just spend that 100k+ each year.. make money for just having money :D (so technically in the long run u'll make more then u got haha )
