Sounds like no winner.

 

My bold prediction was incorrect.

now at 1.3 billion.... thats ridiculous money right there. Even after taxes you'd get half a billion or so.

I think it snowballs even more with sales. The $1.5B mentioned earlier is certainly reachable.

I could do a lot of good with 1.3 B...also a few crazy things.

I'm not sure you could even spend that much on blow and hookers. You would have to waste some also.

Hit it pretty good on the last one. 7 bucks. BOOM

Now that is over a billion, I will buy a ticket or two...under a billion, not worth it:)...

A person in Maryland had all but one.

 

Won $1M.

All but powerball, or another number?

I will probably buy a ticket this time. I usually don't, especially since I consider it a poor tax, but hey, I can spare a little bit for this.

I consider it a tax on the mathematically challenged. But for a few bucks when it's this high, I get my money back just in the entertainment of dreaming.

The chances of picking the right six numbers is the same as flipping a coin and having it comes up heads 28 times in a row.

There is no doubt it is a regressive tax. The people who can least afford it are paying the most of the cost.

 

However, it is a voluntary regressive tax and that erases any objections I might have for it.

Assuming the reporting is correct, the amount received that goes towards eduction makes it hard for me to ever object

Ok, I did it...where's my money? Pay me.
