Heck, in cash...it's a mere 390 million...I give that away every day - 'chump change'

Q: Does Mega Millions have an affiliate site? :rolleyes:

A bunch of guys went in at hubby's work and bought 200 tickets.

I just said silently in my head, "suckers!"

Don't get me wrong, I guess I'd be happy if they won, but the odds are truly stacked against them.

Just sayin'

I hope they win. I can't purchase a ticket here in Canada.

Thanks Jodie!

Aww! How far away are you from the boarder? J/k

I have a confession to make...

I've never bought a lottery ticket before in my life.

There's a good reason for that ... I heard on the radio a short time ago it's the biggest lottery jackpot in the history of the world!

Don't bother playing though ... I'm going to win it.

But NOW what do I do? :confused:

Mega Millions Jackpot: What To Do After You Win

I had heard long ago, that the best tactic is to take the payments, then shop it to a 'settlement' broker, who will buy the annual pmts. for more than if you took the cash...but I see a lot of people just taking the cash these days - Are they smart? Or stupid?

Thanks

NOT that I'm trying to DISCOURAGE you from buying a ticket or anything...
Since I'm pretty sure I'm going to win, I wanted to find a way to let you down easy...:rolleyes:

Somebody has to win it eventually, right? I wonder which is growing at a faster rate right now: the jackpot or the national debt...lol.

That should be easy...just give everybody on the list a dollar - Bingo! 480 million people list!

OR, a 25 million people a year list for 26 years! - your choice!*

(*actual results may vary, check your local listings)
