got 3/6!
please only poor white trash cant afford dropping 5 bucks on the lotto every couple months
got 3/6!
2 numbers.....better then 1!
Its up to 476 mill now...
HOLY ! i didn't get to grab any for tonights drawing, probably throw a 20 on friday's drawing and hope for some luck.
47 people won 250k last night. , I'd be happy with just that.
476,000,000. Damn that's a big ass number. The lady that works at our business office here usually has a pool going so I'll probably jump in on that as well as buying my own ticket.
With the cash option a person could walk away with 200 million. Serious " you" kind of money.
If I won I'd go Scrooge McDuck with my money:

...and right on cue she just walked around the building telling everyone she's collecting money. I figured 20-25 people will get in on it. That's almost a cool 10 million a piece after taxes.
Works for me.
Try $341 million.
Yes, I'd love to try, thank you.![]()
I'm talking after taxes on the cash option. My understanding of cash option is that it boils down to about 60% of the number listed after taxes. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
If I were to win that my only regret would be that I didn't have more enemies to destroy.
I played the LOST numbers. No luck.![]()
I'll throw a bucks in on Friday.
In Texas you subtract 25% from the winnings.
After tax, cash value option, you're looking at ~$269,550,000
That's not enough money, tbh.

I'll be playing again. Definitely would start a trust to collect the funds with... the amount is so high that who knows the number of crazies that would stalk you.

BTW the jackpot has already risen by about $15 million since last night. The amount of ticket sales will boost this thing even higher... plus their listed amounts are always conservative.
I don't invest in the lottery often, mainly because I'm not clear on how all the games work. Is Mega Millions just a straightforward, pick 6 numbers game or does it involve bonus numbers or multipliers or power balls etc. to choose? I'm a littlewith it all.....so the scratch-offs are right up my alley

You choose 5 numbers from the same bank of numbers. Then 1 number (mega ball) in an independent set of numbers. Or you can just go up to the counter and ask for a quick pick cash value option mega millions ticket and it will automatically pick your numbers. Unless you want payments, then ask for that... but payments are stupid.
You buy a quick pick and lose like the rest of us, who cares about the details?![]()
I'm in a pool with co-workers. So for $5 I get 50 chances.
Exactly.
Actually, the quick picks win most of the time...but that's probably because most people go that route.
Try again...
