the best lotto winner ever was this goony bastard: http://articles.baltimoresun.com/2012-04-03/news/bs-ae-bunky-lottery-20120402_1_lottery-winner-ellwood-bunky-bartlett-westminster quote:A Tarot card might have foretold that Ellwood "Bunky" Bartlett would win $32.6 million in the 2007 lottery. apparently sinking your jackpot into a wiccan book store and a record label and developing your own mmo are all inadvisable. behold the glory

ok i've been running a few iterations of the powerball simulator that was posted earlier. http://powerball-simulator.com/ if you select max speed the sim seem to run at about one year per second. sim1 is using quick pick numbers and hit a million bux after 625 years. it's now at 35.5K years and has hit $10K 11 times but nothing bigger. sim2 i picked the numbers and it's been running for 22.5K years and is a poor performer giving only 10K twice. sim3 i started a few minutes ago and picked clown option 1 2 3 4 5 and powerball 6 and it hit a million in 52.4 years (less than a minute of sim time). i'm suspicious of the RNG in this thing  also i was thinking about blowing 2bux on the next drawing but these simulations are really showing how futile the whole thing is so maybe i'll just buy a cookie instead.

Zogo posted:That powerball simulator is old and broken. The odds are different now and the grand prize will likely give 10-30 times more than $40,000,000 by Wednesday night. If you have infinite $$$ and infinite time you 100% want to play now. i knew the odds were different, and it's definitely broken. my 1 2 3 4 5 + pb6 pick has hit the million mark 6 times in 10 thousand years and i'm running a 4 million dollar profit atm. stop getting my hopes up u dumb simulator!

The karma increases your chance of winning by at least a factor of four. yeah but what good is a bag of hobo chips karma if you end up with 1.5 billion of ppl's missed rent payments and kids' lunch money and warm clothes? whoever wins will be beyond jack whittaker levels of hosed

SaltLick posted:http://unitedmediapublishing.com/27-year-old-hedge-fund-manager-wins-powerball-jackpot/ my internet tells me that story was published 13 hours ago, which would have been before the drawing took place. it also seems that somebody who knows money as well as a hedge fund manager would be the last guy to blab about it without giving it some careful consideration first. e: or drat maybe since he's used to that kind of money he already knows what's up and it's no big deal idk
