Yeah well. . . . I sure would have fun buying for some others I feel deserve it. It’s kind of a dream I have. I can’t think of anything more fun to do.

I get a kick out of people thinking they know statistics. 🤣

Odds are the same (1 in 292 million) no matter the jackpot amount.

BTW, I have the winning ticket

As far as hitting the winning numbers, it’s the same. When more people play, more people are likely to win, yes? And when multiple people win, they split the prize, yes?

But if you split half a billion you'll still have a lot more than if you split 50 million nidea

So splitting 50 million isn’t worth investing in, but splitting half a billion is?

Not at all. I just never understood why people play when the amount is higher, as though the lower amounts weren’t worth it.

Exactly. Why would I waste my time over 25 million?

That is why I never buy. Just imagine that to went to bed thinking that you had won a billion dollars. You wake up the next morning and there was also another winner. Just think of the sadness when you find that you had only won a half billion.

So now, I’m going to start another thread on a long distance group buy. Everyone get a certain # of tickets, post a pic of the ticket and state that you’re in. If you win, everyone who says they’re in wins.

you'll want to keep the pics of tickets private, post them in a pm or group text.
