It has become a hot topic that people who won the “Right to use Game Pass for life” who can use Xbox Game Pass forever refuse to accept it. The winner was Reddit user Elvite. However, there is a big risk in this sweepstakes. Although this prize is written for life, it is limited to a maximum of 40 years and must be declared worth $7,300 to the US Internal Revenue Service (National Tax Agency in Japan) (Pure Xbox), GameSpark).
One Anonymous Coward said, a free lifetime (up to 40 years) is worth $7,300, so your taxable income will increase by that amount, resulting in $1,752 in taxes. It is said that he withdrew from the offer because he would not be able to recover its value until almost 10 years had passed.
