Sorry baws.

There's winning and then there's winning big. A lucky Michigan lottery player won big Friday night — $1 billion big.

Friday’s Mega Millions jackpot was one the most valuable lottery jackpots ever, according to organizers.

One ticket matched all six numbers — 4, 26, 42, 50, 60, and 24 —necessary to win the estimated $1 billion prize, according to Mega Millions. The yet-to-be-identified winner can choose between long-term payments or a $739.6 million lump-sum payout before taxes.

You gotta be fricking kidding me.

I envy these fricking people. Get lucky for one night and they win this kind of money, enough to last 20 lifetimes. Why am I never this lucky about anything?

That is what pisses me off about lotteries - conflating a sum of annuity payments with a lump sum.

It is not a "billion dollar jackpot" unless it is a billion dollars now.

Take the lump sum payment. The recurring payments aren’t heritable

$739 billion after taxes will be half that. Between 350-400. Yeah I think I could retire!

Not a single prime number? Obviously rigged. They included 42 just to rub it in.
