Sacrificing $208 for a >0% chance of retiring early isn't a bad deal.

The bad news: I spent all the money on platinums for my alt accounts. The good news: Lowtax can keep doing drugs and running these gay forums until the year 3477

I'm gonna play again and if I win 1 billion I will legitimately give away $10k at a time to random posters on these forums for making funny posts that make me laugh. I will do this at least 500 times.

Pools that purchase multiple tickets are so loving dumb. All my retarded colleagues have one running and they ask each person to pay $10 towards a stack of tickets. Dumb apes don't realize that 1 ticket or 40 tickets is the same single pull of the galactic-odds slot machine. What would be smarter is to find 40 people to pitch in a nickel. If they all win, good for them but I'll buy my own ticket and share the cost with my wife. If I win I will donate 1/2 of the proceeds to improve math and critical thinking courses in all schools.

LOL, one person got mad at me by trying to convince others to not go into the pool and waste their money. It's like a goddamn cult.

Why gift it anyway? Just own expensive things and let others borrow them. Part of the fun of becoming a millionaire is you now hold all the puppet strings for friends and family who want material things.

I think the most honorable thing to do would be invest it well and use the income to establish a philanthropic organization. Failing that, just donate a percentage of your annual revenue to the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation. Also, buy a Porsche or something cool.

The worst thing is it'll probably be a single winner who will give all their money to the Catholic church.

FrankieGoes posted:'Fraid not. 40 in 292,201,338 is still spectacularly lovely odds, but it is not the same as 1 in 292,201,338. You can tell they're not the same, because 1 is not the same number as 40. Not literally the same exact, but functionally it is. Your odds of winning increase so slightly that anything >0 is roughly the same (unless you're buying millions of dollars worth of tickets). Geeze i just spent $10,000 on 5,000 tickets and my 0.000000003422297813023704% chance of winning has increased to a 0.0000711148906511852% chance. I LIKE THOSE ODDS!

If someone you know wins, outside of family or perhaps very close friends who you'd consider the same, would you even consider asking that person for any money? I always tell people all I ever expect is a free beer. No one owes me anything, but a billionaire can buy me one drink.

Just a reminder that if you are the sole winner, you will still have less than 1/2 of the money that Internet fat man Notch, maker of Minecraft, has.

Three Olives posted:I watched a documentary about how you can buy kidneys from poor people in foreign countries for transplant, I could do that or trick one of them into thinking they only need one liver and have one installed as a backup. gently caress that. I want to buy poor people and force feed them lobster and Kobe beef until their liver is diseased and swollen. At that time I will cut it out, purée it, and spread it on a nice raisin toast with some onion confit. Mmm mm!

Not a Children posted:My great uncle played a prank on my grandfather once, about 40 years ago. The lottery had gotten up to a few tens of millions and they and their wives threw in for about 50 tickets each on a whim. They went out the night of the drawing and didn't make it back til late. The next morning, my great uncle woke up before my grandfather, grabbed a newspaper to check the winner, and went to the local gas station to buy a ticket with the winning numbers. Then he mixed that ticket in with the ones they had bought the day before. After everyone woke up and was working their way through the tickets, my grandfather found the one with the matching numbers. My great uncle (who, each time he tells this story, exaggerates the difficulty he had in keeping a straight face a little bit more) holds off for a bit to allow him and the two ladies to celebrate, going through the list of things they'll do with the money, singing songs and drinking whiskey with them as the "win" sunk in. After about a half hour, my uncle tells them to take a look at the date on the ticket. He says that the only other time my grandfather had that particular expression on his face was on the day of their mother's death. My grandfather chased him out of the house with a gun and didn't talk to him for about a month. My grandma did the same thing to my grandpa, but he strangled her and tried to burn her body in the basement fireplace.
