In order to keep my fantasies accurate....

If I were to buy a lottery ticket (for the first time evah!) and win big... like super big... like hundreds of millions of dollars big.... Let's give it a round number like 200 million.

What would the taxes be on that? How much would I actually get, I mean, living in NYC?

(I already know how I'd spend it too. I'd build us a few decent playgrounds in the area. For the love of gosh, why can't we have playgrounds here????)

I think you lose almost half by taking the lump sum payment and another half after that to taxes, so say 50 million?
