First, the feds grab 25% before you ever see any of it. How much more you owe next April needs to be determined by a tax expert. Then your state grabs it's share. That's high variable and hopefully you live in one of the few states with no state income tax. Next, you need a tax expert to figure out how much you can give your relatives while avoiding gift taxes. It gets a bit complicated. So, worst case, the tax man gets as much as half.
Umm, yeah, that’s a known and comes with winning.
Question was, ‘what’s your strategy if YOU won?’
