Yes.

I paid $2 for to dream for 24 hours about what I would do with money that I have almost no chance, but still an ever so slight chance, of winning.

I just went into a 10 minute daydream about what I would do with around 400 million dollars. I could only think of about 5 million dollars worth of spending. Incredible how much money that is

ETA: And to all you baws dreaming about what you're gonna do with all that money, make sure the check clears before you do it.

After Taxes it would be about 243 million in LA.

Nope, went to the store and forgot to get one, was more focused on dinner.

And to think I was picked out a new ferrari 488 today. They come in 8 colors so I was thinking one in each color.

That's almost $10 billion in sold tickets. Do buy a single ticket people. You're not going to win....that's the only guarantee here.


10 billion huh? So if everyone in the USA of legal age (~250 million) purchased tickets, we're looking at 20 to 30 tickets purchased per person. Powerball is not in all states so the average would be vastly more.

You're wrong because math.

You would be down so much. Scratch offs are as rigged as the powerball

I have only bought them a few times in the past when my coworkers were collecting for a pool.

Today I was line at a gas station and the guy in front of me bought 100 tickets. I decided, "Why not?" and bought one.

My chances are as good as his
