Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
Here is further evidence Powerball is still winning the race. ... After 5 Mega Millions draws ..

Also because I'm not a moron I know that I'd only have paid 70% on the taxable income in excess of that 844k (in today's dollars). Still, even if I'd had to pay 70% on all of that, I'd still have had the equivalent of 253k after taxes, plus whatever
