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.
Man if I knew what Oxner knows I could throw away what I know

I get a kick out of people that play these things when they reach all time highs, but not before. The odds go downhill as the prize goes up, and a billion dollars is worth throwing away 20 bucks, but half a billion is not. 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

And when multiple people win, they split the prize, yes?

If anybody on THF wins, I’d like to apply for a chauffeur position.

Sneaky seems to be looking for a fight tonight! Not at all. I just never understood why people play when the amount is higher, as though the lower amounts weren’t worth it.

So splitting 50 million isn’t worth investing in, but splitting half a billion is?
Exactly. Why would I waste my time over 25 million?

And when multiple people win, they split the prize, yes? 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.
