Thread: That multi state lotto up to over 400 million.

Tweet

Don't know if it's the same Lotto or not but I bought a ticket last Thursday for Friday's drawing here in Texas and while I was in there someone asked me what I would do, if I won. I told them "I don't know exactly what I would do but I can guarantee you that it wouldn't be the same thing I did the day before !"

From what I read, the big one right now is the MegaMillions drawings, held on Tuesday's & Friday's. They changed the odds back in September/October, and it's rolled over twenty times consecutively with no winner. They say that over 70% of the possible winning combo's will sell for tomorrow's drawing, but if it rolls again then the total for Friday will likely exceed $1 billion for the extended payout. The next PowerBall drawing is Wednesday, with the estimated payout $50MM, which I guess is chump change in the lottery world? We buy tickets only very, very rarely as we truly consider it a voluntary tax and not really a form of entertainment.
