  I spent $14 (small lottery pool at my job) and lost it all. I've given up trying to pick numbers for the mega million so I did quick pick. I would have done better if I wrote down all the numbers and mega balls that were NOT printed on those tickets to use on a few self picks. I could only imagine how those lucky ducks felt or will fell when they check their winning tickets!

  I bought two lines ($2), won $1.  Got mega 7 on one of the lines.  I'm gonna buy a CA SuperLotto ticket tonight with the $1 win.

  About $20 because there's always another meathead at work who starts a different pool and i'm afraid to miss out.

  Interesting those who spent and won. I didn't spend but didn't lose so I guess that makes me a winner too 

  If the chances of winning the jackpot are so slim, why play when the jackpot is so small? Your chances never change, but the potential payoff does.
  If a crystal ball showed you the future of the rest of your life, and in that future you will never win a jackpot, would you still play?

  P&L % = Total Win($)/Total Wager($) - 1
