there's a cool/depressing powerball simulator that made me never want to buy a ticket ever again. it's fun to see how much money you lose over 5 or 10 years by playing weekly.

That's inaccurate because they don't have a setting for pensioners with no kids, because that's like a guaranteed win every time in Powerball. Then the money goes right back where it came from.

I'll wait until this reaches $1Billion before getting excited. Ever since the odds have increased I just don't feel like throwing money away on this unless I can buy a small country if I win.

Even at a billion, if you win you're going to get a fraction of the actual amount.

Why, in the wild blue gently caress of all fucks upon this gay Earth, would you be carrying 800,000 in loving cash?

Sometimes you want to make it rain, sometimes you want that rain to be Biblical. Like loving Noah.

Or you don't buy a ticket and then when you look at the numbers out of curiosity the next day you find out that they were all predicted by that one fortune cookie fortune you didn't throw out. The numbers were right there in front of you.

Or it'll be the birthdays of you and your family members.

Goddammit Jesus, stop cheating at the lottery and give us poor sinners a chance. We know not what we do, but we know what we'd do with a cool billion.

Lmao why are people mobbing the store it was sold at?

Option 1: They don't understand how the lottery works and saw the store they bought tickets at on the news, and thought that that meant they could have won.
Option 2: They're hoping whoever won went straight to the same store they bought the ticket from to collect the billion dollars in cash they had stashed in the "Just In Case Someone Wins the Lottery Here" Vault, and they planned to mug them.

If you have enough million dollars you relocate and start a new life, why stay in the sticks idgi

Just travel to fancy places, go only to the ritzy parts of the city, then come home to your country homestead in a flyover state where you won't get shot and robbed for walking home down the wrong street.

Literally the nicest outcome that could have happened.

That actually made me smile, better her than me or any of the chucklefucks in this thread who'd spend it all on exotic hookers and nerdy poo poo.
