I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
As a Sony fan during the 599.99 cycle, this has been an hilarious day.
Sure, sounds good.

Time to buy a ticket I think
A lot of people who win don't understand finances and go broke.

That's really just the biggest we've had? Was it a Mega Millions that was higher?
That $675 will probably be closer to $800 by time of drawing. In the unlikely event that no one wins we'll surely have our first $1B lottery drawing... which would snowball into something way bigger after the announce because freaking everyone would want to say they got in on a $1B jackpot.

There's a long history of big lottery winners (in the US at least) that go on to have absolutely miserable lives. But hey, it's to be expected, given the luck involved! You're far more likely to die in a car crash on the way to and back from the lottery office cashing in a winning ticket for this than actually winning.
For $2 you get to daydream about what you'd do with your obscene amounts of money! That's a depressingly cheap thrill in modern America.

It's just depressing to even think of getting an amount like that. How your entire life would be thrown upside down and how every single relationship you have will change forever.

The thirst is real.
How would you quit your job if you win the jackpot?

Someone's gonna win this one. So many tickets will be sold that pretty much every number combination will be covered. With the small, incremental increases (relatively speaking) is when it's more likely that no one will win.
But if by some chance no one wins....wow. lol

I probably wouldn't even walk in. They announce who won, right?
...If they don't, I'd go in, laugh at my short manager, and then walk away.

i fear for my life and people who have my last name who aren't even my family because the search will be on for them
not to mention family and friends who want some of your winnings

I'm really glad no one won because I forgot to buy a ticket.
I don't think I would quit working. Or at least I would work part time doing something charity-related. My mom knows the guy that held the PowerBall record a few years ago (350 million I think) and the family contributes a lot to the community while continuing to work.

I have a theory that only old wealthy people win it big. I don't care about the facts so bother posting them

might have to actually play the lottery for the first time.
I had the same thought. But then I have that thought every time it does this.

If I win I'll give 50,000 to the top 3 charities GAF votes for.
So, when I win, get a lawyer and link them to this? =p
