Re: The lottery, The odds, and You
Wouldn't tax considerations always make the lottery negative EV? Say the prize is $200 million and hitting top prize is 150M-1 against. But you'll only see about $120 million after taxes. Or do you not take this into consideration?
Just curious because I have no idea (also, there is prob a way of determining the probability of a split depending on the number of tickets sold, right?).
