I've been watching Price is Right Primetime, and of late there have been a few Million $ winners. How much will the winner actually take home after the gov't. takes there cut?

Same with Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune and Deal or No Deal. Whatever monies are won, what is the percentage the gov't. will take?

  4. they take the taxes so just found out the persentage of taxes where you live and take that much out of your winnings
