Around noon, it was up to 650M with the rubes buying more and more.

One stat-guy noted that your chance of winning an Oscar was better than winning this bonanza.

The official disclaimer was that the odds of winning was something like 1 in 800M.

Lotto's - self-imposed taxes on the weak minded.

imo

Yeah, the odds are awful - it makes drawing to an inside straight look like a sound bet. However, it is worth the 1 or 2 bucks I spend on it just to dream about what I would do if lightning struck.

Several years ago, 11 of us put up $100 each on a big jackpot: each of us got $3 back on our bet. My last lotto...

On the other hand, Thomas "Hollywood" Henderson has won 2 sizable pots here.

Go figger.

That's why I never spend more than about $2. Even that is frivolity, but the odds are even worse if you don't play. I know what I'd do - in addition to charitable giving there's a nice little 5,000 acre spread in Chile with two trout rivers and a lake that I wouldn't mind retiring to. I'd raise cattle, apples, and dreams.

Sweet! Great luck with it.

Thanks. Even if my shoulder won't let me flyfish anymore I could still have a ball. Not only that Cuban Cigars are legal in Chile. :-)
