What changes these amounts
- A shared jackpot is divided
- Four winning tickets means a quarter each. The advertised figure is the pool, not your share.
- The jackpot is an annuity
- Paid over decades. Cash instead is often around half. More on that.
- California is different
- Every prize there is pari-mutuel by law, so this chart doesn't apply.
- Tax comes off first
- Federal withholding starts at 24% on larger prizes, plus state tax.
