As soon as the greed level becomes complacent with the $400M level. Right now the greed level is at $300M. So it has a ways to go.

In my crystal ball it says, 7.35 years...actually I have no idea, but I have a feeling it won't reach that number anytime soon.

When I purchase and the jackpog is big, that is the night the winner(s) is selected. I NEVER spend more than $10.00. Once I spent $20.00 and got so mad that I did not even get that back, I vowed to never do it again. The big ones are dreams, got dream sometime and cheer up. Yeah, cheer up for the next big winner. I think this one will be won the day afterThanksgiving.
