at even just 5% before tax you could get around $1.1 million a week before tax so probably around $600k a week after tax....lol

the mind just boggles at that much money]]> Thu, 02 Oct 2008 00:57:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21358&PID=506366&title=powerball-20-million#506366 <![CDATA[Powerball - $20 MILLION! : if you say invested say $15 million...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21358&PID=506365&title=powerball-20-million#506365 Author: NovemberMum

if you say invested say $15 million at say 7% you would get after tax approx $15k a week..just think the average person has work around 5 months before they get that.

Id like to think that he average person could live off $15k a week especially if they had no mortgage. just think you could decided to take a trip overseas and even if you only spent $5k a week could save for a month and have enough to go over to Europe for several weeks.

if we did win Id want to have our dream house built and then renovate this place.

I heard a few years ago from someone who used to work in lotto that once powerball gets to $30 million it has to go.]]> Thu, 02 Oct 2008 00:54:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21358&PID=506365&title=powerball-20-million#506365 <![CDATA[Powerball - $20 MILLION! : Jennz wrote:The 18 year old...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21358&PID=506303&title=powerball-20-million#506303 Author: .Mel

I will be getting a ticket, we only play when its big money .

With $20mill you could live off the interest for sure and yes I would be gutted if I had to share.

Just knowing all DH and I problems will be over.]]> Wed, 01 Oct 2008 21:13:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21358&PID=506175&title=powerball-20-million#506175 <![CDATA[Powerball - $20 MILLION! : Who else will be getting a ticket...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21358&PID=506171&title=powerball-20-million#506171 Author: My3Sons

Who else will be getting a ticket this week??

Cant believe it is that high, wow where would I begin?!  A neighbour of ours won $6 million a few years ago, and I remember them saying you could live off the interest, imagine what $20 mill would be like.  Although I do kinda hope it goes to a few people, I dont think anyone needs that amount of money.....how pissed would I be though if I had to share it lol!!
