Lottery is a game that really needs a luck in order to win but if you can hit that luck then you will surely live a comfortable life. $1 billion is a very huge amount of money and you are only earning it within one night if you can hit the correct combination.

Even if there is a tax, still the amount that he win is still pretty huge so I am sure that tax will not matter that much to the winner. What I am a little bit puzzled is why the winner will only get $739 million if he will choose one time cash payment, what happened to the rest as it was $1 billion right?
