I would always play games of chance for entertainment because I like the process it takes me through. Whether I am in a casino or playing the lottery the experience is what I like and winning is part of it. I will always play games of chance because I enjoy it and having millions would only mean that I could play higher denomination machines or bet more on lottery if I wanted to.

Yes, I'd continue playing, but only the jackpot game OPPOSITE the one I won. If I won the Powerball jackpot, I'd play Mega Millions only; if I won the Mega Millions jackpot, then I'd play Powerball only. Also, I'd only get one ticket per drawing and only if the jackpot is at least $100 million.

one ticket per draw... I would continue with one ticket per draw, while crunching the numbers was still fun... I'm sure other hobbies will get in the way tho

I don't know. Let me hit so I can decide then. But you know how the old saying goes. The more you have the more you want! Some is never enough. When is enough enough

Peacemaker it's a joke!!!!! spend twice as much as you won you'd be surprised how many lottery winners won a couple mil and threw it all back into gambling and or squandered it away. A lot of people are addicted to gambling and a large win amount only fuels their desire to bet more. 145 mil isn't chump change but at a casino with high stakes poker and roulette wheels it could be gone real quick. Of course I'm exaggerating but it is possible and has probably been done by some foolish person.... [ More ]

I'd probably quit playing and spend the time I now spend looking at numbers enjoying myself. Because I finally could just chuck it and enjoy!!! I think I'd retire to Hawaii.

I don't think it would be possible to spend 145 mill on lottery tickets in a lifetime without a team of players. Let alone that anyone who hit a big jackpot would squander a chunk of it trying to hit another one. I would however continue to play at a reasonable clip. Including all the foreign countries I'd be traveling in.

For some players once the hit they end up spending twice the amount they won trying to hit again. LOL I would probably play high stake jackpot games and some casino betting. No amount of money would stop me from playing, part of the thrill of playing is winning even though I know I would probably loose more than win. Then again I never won a jackpot game for mega bucks and if I did I would find better ways of making mega bucks. Like buying a franchise or two. Start a couple profitable businesses... [ More ]

Supposed you were the winner of the $145 million lottery, would you take the time out of your busy life to think about playing the lottery? Or, would you be satisfied and allow others to win?What amount of winnings, if any, would entice you not to play the lottery?dphillips (Blue
