You would pay about 165 million (one third), windfall tax.

And the people that buy tickets are suckers IMHO. You actually have a better chance to be elected president. LOL

Someone who is not you, and is not anybody you will ever know, is roughly the same as nobody won.

Good luck!

**96ukssob** · 11-28-2012, 02:40 PM

Someone has to win. So if you don't play, then your chances are 0.

My guess... Some rich fucker from Texas who's going to buy 5 farms and a plane. Or some teachers in Wisconsin.

I wish it's me!!!

minimum 500 tickets sorry

**keysync** · 11-28-2012, 04:19 PM

Wasn't there a lottery website that you could pitch money in and they would buy tickets then post them weekly on the website for everyone to view.
If they hit they would divide the money and pay out.

**VenusBlogger** · 11-28-2012, 04:32 PM

In the past it was 1 million jackpot..

then 10 million.. 20, 30.. and so on.. now the LOTTERY gives away 500 million WTF??.. it really has no limits..

**foulfowl** · 11-28-2012, 06:38 PM

Got my tickets out and waiting for the drawing

I understand why some people play the lotto. Someone has to win! But the odds are it won't be you.

**nico-t** · 11-29-2012, 03:15 AM

wtf a ticket for such a huge prize is only $2?
Here scratch tickets where the main prize is €100.000 are about the same price.

For the new years lottery the prize is 30 million tax free, a ticket is €30,-

Lotto is 1 or 2 bucks, winnings up to 20-30 million if it takes a while for somebody to win.

**brassmonkey** · 11-29-2012, 06:32 AM

60 people hit 1 million prize

**fitzmulti** · 11-29-2012, 06:39 AM

Yup, you can't win unless you play and for $2 it's worth the 10 minute thought of what you'd do with all that money. Good clean fun if you ask me.

$2 a week if you buy a single ticket, 52 weeks in a year.. $104.. Now lets say you play from the age of 21 (legal to gamble) until you die at say.... 81... $6,240 wasted on "good clean fun" when you could have put that $104 every year into something that guarantees you make money off it* and have a good amount of money by the time you die to give to family/friends instead of hoping for a big pay off that is less likely of a chance of happening than being mauled by a BearShark.**

* I grew up watching my dad play lottery and granted he did make some big wins, but he also spent a lot to make that. For example he won $5,000 on a ticket.. I'm pretty positive he spent more than that to win it.. It's just not worth it to me.
