You pay taxes in probably everything, though lottery winnings arent taxed automatically in most countries.. if you buy something (house, car etc.) be sure they’ll get their share.

You have to pax tax when you use the money (sales tax on products, property taxes on purchases, income taxes if people work for you, inheritance tax when you die, etc). Don’t worry, the state will always get several slices of every cake.

Hi halfasleep:

ISK stands for Icelandic Krona and the Icelanders did not win the Norwegian lottery, it is a pan Nordic lottery including those countries and Finland, Denmark, Sweden and Estonia too… Hope this helps :-)

It seems that the Nordics including Estland is united when it comes to money games.
