    Article I read today said it would cost you $600 million to buy every possible combination.

    It appears to be a great way to buy whatever you want with the money.

    This is a no brainer if you have $600 million to spend.

    Maybe if you’re willing to take the annuity. Also have to pray you win it alone and done have to split it.

    He's not giving it away. He's giving it to himself in a way to get some tax breaks.

    I have a better idea. I'm going to build a mansion with a cave underneath and then a company to make me cool gadgets and I'm going to fight crime in a costume at night.

    Hopefully 5 other people don't do that... because you know, everyone would split.

    That’s an oversight on my part. Maybe they could find a hit man on credit? I’d imagine the interest rate would be outrageous, but I still think the return would be worth it.

    I’m a little concerned the jackpot hasn’t increased any since Friday. Going to feel like they cheated me out of some money when I win tonight.

    So I used to be pretty good friends with a fellow tmb user. On Friday they texted me someone from Vermont won. So naturally being the trusting guy I am I didn't worry about buying more tickets until yesterday when I noticed whilst buying beer it was still over a billion. You really hate to see a lifelong friendship end over money just so they have a better chance of winning if I don't buy more tickets. I'm not going to out the user bc I hope we can eventually repair our tattered relationship, but let's just say there is a reason some people aren't trustworthy to be mods on here

    Not confirmed by the lotto yet though. I've seen where 8 tickets were sold in CA that matched 5 numbers.

    Would be crazy if it was only one winning ticket.

    I’m just glad it’s over. I started a new job in August when the jackpot started ramping up and the dude in the cube next to me is “hard sell to put your weekly $10 in the team lottery pool” guy. I’ll buy my own ticket for bigger jackpots, but I’m not trying to waste $10 a week out of camaraderie.

    I want my $100 back, John. If you hustled this much at your real job then maybe you wouldn’t be two steps behind and relying on lottery winnings to dig out of the hole.
