How many tickets you buying? LOL, I normally think of lotteries as a tax on the stupid (but I still buy one ticket for each of the three milllion dollar lotteries we have here) but this week I think I might throw in an additional dollar or two for an extra quick pick.

For a chance at $325 million (cash option) I told my mom we should try 4 tickets, that's the most we've ever gotten for Powerball.

So your odds will be 3 in 2 Billion instead of 1 in 2 Billion. blank stare @ you

But, your chances are 100% more than mine since I didn't buy a ticket. d-oh!

Usually I don't waste my money on this because of the odds of winning. I did buy 20 bucks worth the other day for the hell of it now lets see if I had at least 1 number.

My mom said that on TV they were saying that more than one person HAS to win it tonight, but just think if it DID all just go to one person? What the hell would that be like to win half a billion dollars on a $3 ticket?

The cash option is approx. $360,000,000. Not a bad day's work. I take it you pay $3 because you go for the power play option?

Exactly, otherwise I think the best we could hope for would be $200,000, and there is a big difference in that and 360 million.

And unless your government makes up its mind soon you will not have to pay much taxes after you win that half a billion.

I don't buy any either, Cheaps.

I was thinking this morning how totally shitty it would be to wake up and find out the winner was sold at my local gas station! Thankfully, it wasn't, so I can't be mad at myself for not gettting one!
