Re: An Oregonian won Powerball lotto!
I got all kinds of excited when I heard an Oregonian had won it...
...until I checked my numbers and found it wasn't me. 
Oh well. I only wasted $1 on it. It was worth it.

That's what I was thinking.
If any of the bbboards posters or lurkers won the Powerball I fully expect the biggest, baddest blowout bash ever. It's what I would have done 
And no, I didn't win either.

Give it to Paul Allen and tell him to quit being such a tight-wad with player salaries and bring in some top-flight talent!

Re: An Oregonian won Powerball lotto!
$110 million if you take the lump sum. Damn, I don't know if I could spend that much money.....I'm sure that I would blow a few million but putting it away and living off the interest would have been sweet.

Zid..taxes take more then half..the actual amount you get to keep if you win 340million is 164.4million if you check the Powerball website. And that's if you choose to stretch out the payments over 30 years or so.
