$1.725 BILLION: Powerball jackpot now 2nd-largest of all timeReply
Another Extremely high lottery built up by small states to only be won by one of the large states. WHO SAW THAT ONE COMING? Question is are you tired of funding Champagne wishes and caviar dreams for people in California, Florida, NY or Texas? You could keep putting money in the retirement coffers of big state citizens by playing the Big State Powerball or the Big State Mega Millions games with unattainable odds OR you could start saving and investing that money which overtime will yield more th

First $25 million scratch-off lottery prize claimed in MassachusettsReply
A state's size will have little impact on how often that state has a lottery winner. What does have an impact is the number of people playing in the state.. (more correctly, the number of tickets sold in the state) NJ may be smaller than Massachusetts (area), but there are more people living in NJ.. about 9.2m vs 7m.. There is also the possibility of people crossing the border (or passing through) into NJ to buy tickets Hmm NY... 19.7m vs California at 39 million (and Texas at 30 million

$1.25 BILLION: Mega Millions jackpot set to deliver unimaginable wealthReply
Looking at the top 25 list, I don't see Texas on there in the top 25 Annuity or Cash Value at all, as a Jackpot winner. New York has nothing in the top 10. PA has nothing.The current list shows winners from TN, SC and Maine in 3 of the Top 4 all time Jackpots that have been won. None of those states even have 3% of the nations population in them according to https://www.infoplease.com/us/states/state-population-by-rank Might have to respectively disagree with you on your analysis of small s

$1.25 BILLION: Mega Millions jackpot set to deliver unimaginable wealthReply
I landed $8 with a QP and the Megaplier on it. I will get two or three tickets for the Friday draw with Megaplier on them. That Megaplier really upped the Texas win to $4M - it sure did make the effort worthwhile. Will do a QP and some random numbers.

Accidental lottery ticket purchase nets Maryland couple $2 million in PowerballReply
Yes, the message was meant for you. IGT=International Gaming Technology; WOF=Wheel of Fortune. Our machines also have a total touch screen but no replay feature per se. If you win I think under $50 it asks if you want credit or delete. One game, Cashball 225 you may win a free ticket here and there and it'll print a new ticket with different #'s. Here when you call the KY help desk it really goes to RI IGT service center and I think it got cut down to 7 states. They are very good and hav

$1.05 BILLION: Mega Millions keeps rolling after no winner FridayReply
Cash value is 50%. I remember the good ole days of 60-70% cash value. Never would I take the annuity. Always take the cash, take the hit now. Reinvest carefully, you will always beat the annuity over 30 years. Honestly, I do not expect to win. The jackpot has greater odds to go to a state like California, Texas, or New York. And besides, with all the gloom, doom, and instability. You'd be better off winning a second or third tier and pay off debt. Cause they are just going to take i
