Why? Because everybody and their mother will be lining up for a shot at a billion dollars?

Everybody is talking about this like this is the first time it ever happened.

How good would it be for that money to go to charity?

Or at the very least, half of it.

Yeah. That'd be really great. But in reality, it won't. It'll be used for greed purpose

The UK just had an ongoing rollover on our lottery. They put a cap on it though. It was meant to cap out at £5.5 million on saturday, meaning someone would win this week, even if they didn't have all 6 numbers, but because of the increase in sales, the end total was £6.6 million. 2 people won.

Its actualy been shown that requiring money to go to charity kills lottery.

If I win, I'm disappearing. Probably about half would go to charity, over time, for tax purposes if nothing else.

It was 1.4 Billion when I bought my ticket, but it's gone up again. Last I saw was 1.5.

Well, someone in Chino Hills, California is very happy right about now...

A millionaire, a redneck, and a retiree.

All three winners are the ultimate lottery stereotype.

I am none of those, so does that mean I shouldn't play?
