Alma

just about half goes to taxes.

Jessica

about 18 milllion

Dean

figure between 20-33% depending on state, local, and federal taxes.

Jackie

About half of it, once you include Taxachusetts taxes as well.

Tracy

You would probably lose about a third of the prize money.

Linda

if you take the lump sum you would get half the listed prize after taxes

Jonathan

i think 40%, which is equal to 22.4 mil. which means u would be able to keep 33.6 million of your 56mill prize

Katherine

you would have to give uncle sam 33%

Chester

The gift that keeps on taking.

Depends on who is your financial adviser. If you have a bad one then after awhile nothing is left but bills bills and more bills.

A good one then it will probably set you back 25% ( then 10% commission and, and, and)

Winning money costs a bundle.

Leslie

After all the taxes to the feds and state, you get to spend the rest taking your family out to eat at Taco Bell. OK, seriously, a good sound ballpark figure wouold be that you would keep about 40%. Ain’t America great? What a rip off. Why do we put up with this nonsense?

Florence

I wish my parents had named me “Sam”, then I could be everyone’s Uncle Sam

Rick

this all depends on your state, local and county tax rates
