Never enter an American Lottery!
It was just on TV!
An American couple won a lottery where the prize is a $1 million House.
They now have to pay $630,000 in taxes on their $1 million prize win.
How do they pay the Tax? They have to sell the house to pay it! Some lottery!!!

Why bother going in a lottery if the out come will be like that. Perhaps they didn't know.

I think Americans are aware of the high tax on prize winnings.
I wonder how much tax they will have to pay on the sale of the house, not to mention agents fees and commission!
They may get $20 change at the end of it all. Just enough to buy another lottery ticket!

Never wake a sleeping woman, unless it's with something better than a question.
Life is not worth the hassle.
