$1.7 BILLION: Will Powerball create a Christmas billionaire?Reply
Yeah, if this happens again next year ... I surmise there will be discussions about changing things up. Let's hope they don't go the mega millions route with $5 tickets. Maybe they could axe the Monday drawing .... Maybe they could offer 3 dollar tickets with pp included on every ticket Maybe they keep the 10 x pp and make it available @ 300 and under or available all at any jackpot amount Maybe maybe maybe Have a shaggy day ShagE3

New Millionaire for Life multi-state game coming in 2026Reply
With odds of 22 million to 1 people will actually win this game.

If it's 7 then that might be where they run into a problem on this one. Two or three draws per week might be better so players don't feel like they are getting milked. I'm looking forward to the details because

To get there we need an annuity of $2.173 billion or so (assuming the interest rate doesn't change). I think we should be at the point where sales for Monday should at least be almost as big as Saturday's, and that's what we saw last Monday. If we see 1.844 tonight that's an even $400 million more than Wednesday, so we'd need an incr
