100,000 lottery tickets or 1,000,000 pennies which..
 

Would you choose..

The million pennies would be delivered to your front door in a fuckin big skip.
Think about security/ Time/ Banking problems..

100,000 scratchers.

lottery tickets if they are the scratch off variety. I could at least sell those at half price and make more.

They arn't scratch cards, the odds of the jackpot are 1:14,000,000

In that case, the pennies... I'd glue them all together in some abstract form and call it art, then sell it for $100,000.

pennies! heh would have to take them to the bank in like 400 seperate trips but still i think it would be better

would there any banks that would take a million pennies lol

My local bank will only let me take 3 bags at a time. That would mean 333,333 days...
or 913 years to pay the cash in..

How did you come up with this question?
I would take a million pennies, checking if you won on 100k lottery tickets wouldn't exactly be that easy either...

I would have thought that to check a 100,000 lottery tickets would be easier than trying to cash 1,000,000 in pennies, who knows the first ticket you check couldbe the jackpot..

Also consider what you do with the cash. Is their some depot you can take stuff like this to?

I'd take the 1M pennies, hire 20 people at $7 per hour. Each person would have to roll 1000 rolls of pennies. Assuming each person can complete 250 rolls/8hr day, it would take 4 days to roll all the pennies. The total man hours involved are 20 x 8 x 4 = 640 x$7/hr = $4480 for a net profit of $5520 guaranteed.

Why does everybody say the pennys? It depends on the lottery the tickets are for, but here in Holland you have lots of lotteries where you win 5 euro if you have the right ending number, so that means 5 euro every 10 tickets.

That alone would turn out into 10,000 x 5 = 50,000 euros. Then of course you have the bigger prices for the last 2 numbers, last 3 numbers, last 4 numbers, last 5 numbers.

You would win at least 150,000 euros.
