OK, this is insane! The estimated jackpot is 640 million, dwarfing the old record of 390 million. The drawing's in 7 minutes.

There it is below a life changing sequence of numbers, who's tickets match these figures.....

Thar she blows like a hump on a snow hill....its, its more money then Moby Dick could swallow in one gulp, lol.....

2-4-23-38-46-MB 23

Why do I have the feeling some low life scum bag who is in charge of a giant work office pool, is gonna mysteriously disappear off the grid now for a few months, before emerging with this ticket and they in question turn out to be an ILLEGAL ALIEN, who in fact will win the case in court by passing all the other work mates in the office pool leaving them hanging out to dry and he then in turns get to keep it all....

Like the fight promoter once said who looked like he stuck his finger in the light socket...."Only in America"

I've always felt that if I won in the double-digit millions, I'd arrange it so family members and a few close friends got $1 million each. All the wonderful charities who never did any good for me or anyone I know would get their very own lottery ticket, and best wishes for luck.

I have always have put my care an love for animals right on the EXACT same plain as the people around me.


Keep in mind that shelters always need food, money, litter, etc. Moreso now when people have to move and can't find a place that allows pets.

My brother found a deal where you could get bags of quality dog food free after refund. Handing the shelter bags of dog food was like giving them a box of cents.

I saw one of the TV Morning show over the weekend and they said that there was about 100 Millions people bought ticket(s) and they've spent a total of about $1.5 BILLIONS on this mania.

In the end, who's the TRUE winner (ie: they would win regardless of outcome): The states that run the program. Just like the casino - the house ALWAYS win!

Btw, I did contributed my fair share to the game ===> guilty as other.... hahaha.

SilentAsian4Hire,

They call it the "stupid tax". What percentage of stupid is $5, that's my personal concern?

Lotteries are not stupid, just bad odds.

If you win, even a million dollars, you're set for life.

Stupid is scratch offs, where even if you win, the best prize money will buy a decent car, and half the incoming money is kept, so even if you bought every ticket, you'd lose 50%.
