And you thought I was going to tell you he'd lost...
We get Jeopardy earlier than most, on Armed Forces Network. On today's show Ken did it again, but by a much smaller margin - was actually behind after the first session and was negative at one point!
Total now, $1,022,460.00
sigh... :nw:

My fellow Canadian , Alex, asked me to go on the show since he told me that I was the only one capable of beating 'him'. I declined due to a terrible inferiority complex !!!

Knew a guy once who won an expensive car in some radio contest. The trade in value of his old car didn't even cover the taxes. He would have to write the dealer a large check to claim his free car. He finally made a deal just to get the cash value of the car, sans the taxes.
This guy isn't going to walk away with a millon. Uncle Sam will be a big winner too.

No free lunch from the IRS. Tax is taken out at 28% right off the top! And it may not be enough to cover the actual tax depends on the tax return....maybe he gets an annuity and regular payments annually and then it can be taxed at a lower rate - just like the lottery

Karen, The category was Historic Americans. The question was something like in 1861 of Georgia was compared to Hamilton because of his drafting of what document?
The answer was the Constitution of the Confederate States.
